Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440S - System Update Couldn't Start Properly

Sep 11, 2013

System update Lenovo stopped working some days ago. Today I had my fingers crossed that maybe with the installation of currently latest version it will work (systemupdate506-11-04-2014.exe). When I have ran the installation it has warned me there are some previous versions and it will be installed, but installation didn't went thru. After manually removing System update service (sc delete SERVICENAME) and running the installation again, the installation wizard completed successfully...

But then when I run System update I receive an error "T440S - System update Cuuldn't start properly".

How to achieve that System update would work properly on T440s laptop. My operating system is 8.1 x64 enterprise.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s System Date Does Not Advance At Midnight

Jan 3, 2009

This is a brand new T440s, i7, W7 Pro that I have had for 3 days.  On the first power-up, the system date was set on "tomorrow," in other words, one day ahead.  I reset the date, time, country and time zone.  It is set to sync with the internet.  Each morning now when I power it up, the system date is "yesterday," one day behind.  I have to manually change the date each morning.  How can I fix this permanently.  Other than this date glitch, it's a beautiful machine.

What can I do to rescue my system?

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T410s Recovery Windows 7 Failed To Start After System Installation

Oct 14, 2008

I've got a problem with the laptop Lenovo T410s. I've put the new HDD on it (tried even the same with a different HDD too), and started to instal WIN 7 64-bit from the recovery disks. I used to do it many times so far with different Lenovo laptops without any problems. But this time, a while before the end of the instalation (when processing the sdrivebackup.wim) it stops and comes with a statement: " the recovery process has been finished, please ...." (but I see that the progres bar is far awayfrom 100%) , and finishes the instalation, reboot the computer and it comes the screen with the statement from the Windows Boot Manager:

"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem (...)
 
File: Windowssystem32winload.exe
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The selected entrycould not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt"
 
I read a lot about the ways to solve similar problems, but they don't work on my case. The strange thing is, that I can instal WIN 8 or WIN7 from regular Windows instalation disks  (not from Lenovo recovery, but from normal universal Windows instalation disks).

As I told before, I tried it in 2 different HDD disks with the same effect. It looks that the recovery instalation stops before the end without instaling some files which are missing later during starting the system.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Huge Slowdown On T520 After Updating Through TV System Update

Mar 27, 2012

I recently updated a whole bunch of things on my T520, and afterwards experienced a significant slowdown in everything -- startup time as well as just general work. There's often a long lag when opening programs or documents, right clicking, etc. Part of this seems to be due to higher CPU usage. While idling (i.e. just sitting on my desktop) and looking at Task Manager, CPU usage seems higher than normal on some things -- SynTPEnh.exe will consume 3-8% of CPU, one instance of svchost.exe will take up to 10%, etc. My total idling CPU usage is generally 15-25% now. (I have a quad-core i7.) Also, my battery life dropped precipitously; it used to be upwards of 5 hours on a full charge when just doing general web browsing and word processing, but now it's less than 2 hours. 
 
Going around in Process Explorer and Task Manager, I've found a few things that seemed somewhat unusual: A lot of my processes have many page faults -- slightly under 15 minutes after starting up my computer, SynTPEnh.exe has about 250,000, SimpleTap.exe has over 50,000, the instance of svchost.exe with the Base Filtering Engine, Diagnostic Policy Services, and Windows Firewall has about 250,000, and Process Explorer itself has about 250,000. There were also some items that seemed like they might be taking up more memory (Private Bytes, in Process Explorer) than they should -- dwm.exe is using about 150 MB, and SimpleTap.exe is using about 115 MB. Also, my CPU percentage of Interrupts jumps around, most of the time staying between 2-5%.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s Second Display Via VGA Resolution

Dec 16, 2014

I could just find posts related to similar problems when using docking station - tried some of the solutions, but none seemed to work. 
 
Found this [URL] ... on dpreview - suggests using miniDP to DP 2-link converter (screen has just VGA/DP ports).

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s Do Not Boot After Recovery

Oct 8, 2014

I have a T440s lenovo laptop whose motherboard was replaced a few months ago.
 
Today I wanted to make a clean installation (windows 8) using the recover USB key I created before the motherboard replacement (note that I already used it and it was working before changing the board).
 
It goes through the different steps, deleting files and creating the partitions, but when it is done the computer is not able to boot on the hardrive. I have the following messages :
 
Intel (R) Boot agent Ge v1.5.43 copyring (C) 1997-2013 , Intel corporation
............. initializing and establishing link...
 
PXE-E61 - Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F - Exiting intel boot agent
(so looks like it is trying to boot on the pci lan)
 
Then it comes back to the boot menu where I have a choice between :
ATA HDD0
PCI LAN
 
If I select the first one nothing happens, and the the PCI LAN gives the above error message.
 
I tried to reset the bios parameters to default but it did not work. So I am wondering if it has something to do with some change in the motherboard ID, bios version....

I also launched the lenovo quick storage device test to check the hard drive and all was ok. I had to change a bios option to UEFI (the new motherboard was set by default to Legacy, messing up all the recovery process)

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s - Trying To Enable 30-day Standby

Nov 16, 2013

New T440s doesn't seem to be entering 30-day standby mode.
 
I did upgrade the RAM and SSD after purchase.  RAM is now 12GB and SSD was cloned directly from the factory drive.  In Disk Manager, I do see a 12GB partition that I presume is the sleep partition?  Computer is running Windows 8.1, all updates applied, as far as I can tell everything relevant is up to date.  Power Manager is not installed (not installed from the factory).  Rapid Start is enabled in the BIOS and set to 1 Minute for testing.
 
I did find that in the Windows power plan selected from the factory that Hybrid Sleep was not enabled (nor was Hibernate).  I've enabled Hybrid Sleep.
 
Still, the computer never enters deep sleep mode.  Nothing connected to the computer and no significant changes made to the configuration other than updating to Windows 8.1 and installing some software.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Clone Stock HDD To New 850 EVO Pro - T440s

Dec 1, 2014

proper sequence of steps to successfully clone my existing HDD to the 850 Pro SSD.
 
I am most curious as to what bios settings needed to be made before, during, or after the cloning process (AHCI?)
 
I purchased a USB 3.0 to SATA cable to work with the process but don't know if I take the old drive out first and connect it to the cable, or connect the SSD to the cable and start the process.

Is this a faulty port? And, if so, what does it take to fix it? (i.e. what do they replace/fix?)

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s - Enhanced Functions For This Application Are Available

Every time I open one of the Lenovo apps like like Support or Companion, I get the message "Enhanced functions for this application are available".  I click the message, a browser opens up, I download "dependecypackage.exe", I install, setup asks for a restart and I let it, and the process repeats again and again.  I keep getting this "Enhanced functions..." message.  It is driving me crazy.  How do I end this cycle?

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Windows 8.1 Pro And USB 3.0 Not Recognizing DVI LCD Panel On T440s

Sep 24, 2014

When I connect the USB 3.0 dock to my T440s, I then cannot get the second LCD monitor to be recognised by Windows via the USB3.0.
 
The monitor is not being recognised as it is is not seen as one of the optional displays in the 'Intel HD Graphics control panel' window.
 
The driver however for the second monitor is fully up to date and it works fine when I connect the LCD to the VGA port directly on my computer.  Also the second monitor is being recognised partly by the windows OS as it comes up as a second screen under the 'screen resolution' window.
 
My set up is shown below.  I am thinking that perhaps there is an issue with either the NVIDIA or Intel HD graphics chip. I read somewhere that windows uses one or the other depending on the load.  I am worried that there is some problem with that mechanism. All driver are up to date.
 
System Unit
Nvidia GT730M Graphics without docking connector
Processor
4th Gen Intel Core i7-4600U Processor (4MB Cache, up to 3.30GHz)
  Display Panel
14.0" FHD IPS With WWAN

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T440s Doesn't Wake Up From Sleep

Jan 19, 2014

I got a new T440s about 2 weeks ago and sometimes it doesn't wake up after it goes into sleep mode. It gets stuck on a black screen and the mouse cursor is visible, but moving the mouse or pressing keys on the keyboard fails to wake it up. When this happens, I have to restart the computer by holding down the power button for 10 seconds. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and hybrid sleep is off. I'm just really confused because sometimes it wakes up perfectly and sometimes it doesn't.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Brand New T440s With BIOS Password

I purchased online a T440s brand new. I opened the box for the first time myself. When I enter BIOS it asks for password and I just hit enter without entering any password. I can enter the BIOS but i can not change any settings.

What can I do? Can a brand new thinkpad come with a BIOS password out the box?

I get conflicting information regarding the type of password. First image says it's power on which can be removed but bios says its supervisor.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: Inserting ASCII Character Codes With T440s

Jan 3, 2009

The T440s has no embedded number pad and no Num Lock key.  I post to a weather blog and the degree symbol (Num Lock > Alt+248) is almost as common as the letter A.  
 
1.  How do I insert ASCII characters, such as the degree symbol, using the T440s keyboard?
 
From reading specs and reviews of third party USB number pads, it appears that the combination of Num Lock, Alt and the number pad does not work to insert ASCII characters.
 
2.  Will the Lenovo 33L3225 Thinkpad Numeric Keypad allow me to insert ASCII character codes as if it were part of a full keyboard?
 
I find the omission of this function on the T440s puzzling.
