Lenovo R400
If starting I get this Error 0210: Stuck Key 3E
What key make this error?
If system is loading cursor don't working via touchpad.
If I press WIN key which open start menu, or a volume key, touchpad start working.
F4 key dont working.
I tried reset BIOS - problem continue. [URL] .....
My X200 laptop appears to have a mistake in its keyboard. When the machine is starting up, I see the following message right after the Bios screen:
Error
0210
Stuck key 5D
Press F1 to setup
And also when I am using it, the computer sometimes show the thing like when we click on right button of the mice, even I do not touch the laptop.
When I replace other keyboard ( from other X200), the laptop work perfectly.
I made sure the machine was not in sleep or hibernation mode, and the user states the machine was fine a few hours ago.
I removed the hard drive but that did not change the behavior...
I have a question about a Second Hard Drive Bay Adapter for a R400 7439 i have looked all over and some say 9.5mm and some say 12mm so what part number or size to get!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI purchased R400 yesterday and downgraded to XP Pro using the CD coming with the laptop. After the conversion from Vista to XP, I cant see the wireless, bluetooth, finger print etc. In the device manager I can see only "1394 Net Adapter" and "Intel (R) 82567LF Gigabit Network Adapter". Nothing in yellow.
I downloaded the driver file 6hwc05ww and installed but still I can't see any wireless adapter! why it is not coming automatically like other drivers? How can I install it?
I have the Modelle R400 running Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) on it.
If I run Lenovo Vintage Tools programm teh airbag/active protection icon is grey.
If I click on it it starts the installer and I can install it but after a reboot it shows me that it isn't installed/grey icon again.
My R400 laptop (7447-W14) suddenly freezes on boot: it displays the early logo ("thinkpad, to interrupt normal startup, press the blue Thinkvantage button"), and waits forever, neither the bios menu nor the operating system (windows and ubuntu in dual boot) appears.
I can shutdown by holding the power button more than 5s, but on reboot, the same freeze come back, whatever I do:
- holding the F1 key before and after powering on
- holding the "ThinkVantage" button
- doing this on battery, or with power supply (with or without battery)
- trying to boot on an external USB HD drive
It does not seem to be a CPU problem (nothing would be displayed), nor RAM or harddisk one (it is cheked later, at BIOS time).
In fact, I was wondering wether removing and putting back the small battery of the mainboard would solve this problem ... but this battery seems not to be eaysyly found. At least, it is not under the keyboard, where the RAM is.
of course, warranty has ended ... any way, before I throw this laptop to trash ?
I bought a new X1 Carbon (20A7) a week ago and from time to time the laptop gets stuck on the ThinkPad splash screen when booting. I have to hold the power button to turn it off and then it boots fine. My brother has this problem with T540p, although this happens to him a LOT more often (also, if he waits patiently for 10-20 minutes, the system boots eventually, I havent tried that on my X1).
It doesn't matter if the AC is connected, whether there is something connected to USB ports, whether it was a restart or just normal boot, there is no pattern that I can see, this seems random. We tried updating the BIOS to the newest version, our USB ports are not bent or anything, the SSD with the OS is set as the first boot device. This still happens. I see there are more people with thinkpads who have the similar problem, but their solutions do not apply (if there were any).
I have a problem with my Lenovo ThinkPad X300 computer. The battery charging stuck at 99% (remaining capacity about 69% and 300 cycles). The Power Manager displays, the battery is at 100% but "status" periodically changes - both Power Manager and Windows battery indicator - between "No activity" and "Charging".
Every time stuck at the same "Remaining capacity". As i noticed during battery user windows and the Power Manager displays different information about the remaining battery level and time.
Had a w540 for a few days and so far it'd be fine. At the weekend i used the laptop on battery for a long time and thus set the power-management low to conserve power.
However, today having switched back to power supply and setting power scheme to max performance the CPU is still concerving power.
Its running (according to resource manager) at 29% and no matter how much i do it sticks at that percentage. The laptop does feel like its running at that clock speed too ... everything is super slow ... can watch programs drawing in the display...
Had the laptop for 11 months no issues, I woke up to find the computer stuck on the startup screen. Tried rebooting, took out the battery, tried it pluged in, unpluged and it keeps stopping at the startup screen.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble figuring out why on my T520, after upgrading from 8GB/1333Mhz to 16GB/1600Mhz Crucial RAM, Speccy/CPU-Z still says they're running at around ~660Mhz x 2 = ~1330?
My specs are as follows:
For my T520 (4239-CTO) I have...
Processor: Intel Core i7-2860QM 2.5Ghz
RAM: Crucial 16GB (8GB x 2) DDR3-1600
GPU: Intel HD 3000 / NVIDIA QUADRO NVS 4200M
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 (w/latest updates)
After Googling for a while and from looking around here I've read nothing that says I shouldn't be able to run at 1600Mhz especially considering my processor supports that speed officially. Another post on this topic (not for the T520 specifically) mentioned that i7's contain the memory controller within itself. So... am I being thwarted by software settings in the BIOS or within my operating system?
The problems still exist after I do a fresh restore with Lenovo DVDs. Also ran the Lenovo Update & Driver utility.
1. My W530 wont boot or start if I have a External drives plugged in. It stucked at "ThinkPad" screen. I have to unplug the external drive and press/old power button to shut it down. Same thing happened when the laptop is docked.
=> Contacted the technical support today. They told me I have to unplug and plug it back in everytime. I told him that there is a reason I got the dock station so I don't have to unplug and plug my external drive every time.
2. I have no problems booting if thumbs drive plugged in. But it keep "Auto run" everytime I turn on the machine.
I do not have this problem with my W500 and W510.
W530, Intel Core i7-3820, 32G DDR3 RAM, 180G Intel SSD, Windows 7 x64, NVIDIA Quadro K2000M.
I've had the W530 for two years and there is an issue when turning on the laptop. I haven't contact Lenovo's warranty yet.
When I press the power button, frequently it shows the Thinkpad white logo against black background and won't load. Windows at all. It just stuck there.
I have already restore the system but the problem is still there.
Oddly, when it does work (which is rare), the "to interrupt normal startup, press enter" appears. Everytime it works, that phrase would appears.
The only components I have connected to this laptop are ethernet cable for internet, USB hub, and external drive hooked up through PC slot on the side.
Laptop Spec:
Windows 7 Professional with latest update
Intel Core i7 3720QM 2.6HGHZ
Bios 2.7
For the past couple of weeks I haven't been able to use my lenovo s230u twist. I can turn it on, I can get to the "lenovo, to interrupt norml startup press enter." But then the screen goes black. Then I get to the windows boot manager, where i get some options. [URL] ....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got 2 separate but really annoying issues with my W540 20BH:
- display brightness keys not working: when waking up from Hibernation mode, sometimer (really, randomly!) the display brightness keys (Fn+F5/F6) don't work.... either if the display brightness is stuck on max, min or an intermediate level...Is there a way to shut down and restart the process which commands the Fn keys?
- audio channel commutation gets stuck. Normal behaviour of the audio configuration is:
1) speaker volume disabled, mic disabled
2) when plugging in a 4-pin headset, headset's volume is on, headset's mic is switched on; speaker volume is still disables.
3) when unplugging the headset, speakers' volume is still 0
After each boot, the audio channel is at 0, but doesn't commute to the headset when plugged in! I have to open Configuration Panel, realtek properties. With this window open, unplug and re-plug the headset. Now, the volume has its normal behaviour.
Any better way to configure audio channels and evenments, which is able to bypass realtek's manager?
I am in a urgent need to access my data for work. I tried to press esc but it does not work, both holding down, press frequently, etc.
how to boot the windows regardless the fan does not functioning.
The SSD originally came partitioned into two volumes. One of them was about 8GB and what it was originally used for. The other partition was about 14GB and was used by ExpressCache.
After formatting the primary partition on the other drive and reinstalling Windows 8.1, I decided to delete the two partitions on the SSD and to instead create a single 22GB partition to be used by ExpressCache.
ExpressCache was working perfectly until I enabled bitlocker.
Then the machine started playing up and I later learned that bitlocker was incompatible with ExpressCache. So rolled back the encryption on the main drive and uninstalled ExpressCache. Since I am not going to be able to use ExpressCache with bitlocker, I would now like to format the 22GB SSD with NTFS and assign it a drive letter.
This is where I have started running into problems.
Even though I do not have ExpressCache installed or running and I do not yet have bitlocker enabled, windows keeps failing when I try to format the drive.
I have tried to use a variety of tools to format the drive. All of them get stuck at 0%.
Tools I have tried include: diskpart, windows format, EaseUS partition manager and MiniTool Partition Wizard
Various tools I have tried report that the disk is healthy.
I have used diskpart to remove the partition and create a new primary one.
When I try to format the partition using diskpart, I get the message:
"DiskPart has encountered an error: The parameter is incorrect. See the System Event Log for more information."
The event log reports the following warning as a result of attempting to format the drive:
Event ID: 129
Source: storahci
Message: Reset to device, DeviceRaidPort0, was issued.
Event ID: 153
Source: disk
Message: The IO operation at logical block address d8 for Disk 1 (PDO name: Device0000036) was retried.
Event ID: 129
Source: storahci
Message: Reset to device, DeviceRaidPort0, was issued.
(This last warning will appear four times - roughly 30 seconds apart)
Is this a driver issue?
I have tried installing the "Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver" and then formatting the drive, but it still gets stuck at 0% (this time however it doesn't report any warning in the event log) so I have resorted back to the Standard SATA AHCI Controller . How I can get some use out of my 22GB SSD?
It is a Toshiba THNSNX024GMNT
I got this base system device error in my device manager. I have installed X1 Ricoh multicard reader but still can't solve it.
My machine is X1-3444-BDU, Win 7 pro 64bit.
So my battery from my Thinkpad e420s Laptop was broken and I ordered a new one and exchange it. But now when I go to the Power Manager it says Battery Error and I cant charge it. And when I take out the power plug it shuts down immediately. What can I do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy battery (FRU: 42t4957) is stuck at 2% and refuses to charge:
I kept it at 40-50% most of the time by changing battery threshold. Total cycle count was about 80 (84 now) first use date 2013-03.
On Saturday I tried to run a "discharge-charge-discharge-charge" cycle (by watching some movies) to reset the gauge of my battery. During 2nd discharge my laptop hibernated due to low charge much earlier than expected, when I turned it on it showed that the max capacity is 28 Wh and the battery is in the "poor" condition.
I tried to perform automatic gauge reset but didn't get much (29 Wh). I updated power manager and performed another automatic reset which failed too.
So I tried to make a manual reset and left my laptop paying a movie for a night. On Monday I plugged my AC adapter in but found out that the battery won't charge: "a battery error has occurred the battery cannot be charged".
I cleared residual capacitance by pushing the power button several times and reset the BIOS to defaults but got nothing.
If this problem can't be sold I would like to know the reason of it to avoid such things in the future. While googling this forum I met contradictory opinions on battery reset: ones say that it's extremely harmful because battery "doesn't like" to be discharged to 0%, others say its harmless.
Problems with the Thinkpad X220 and my Samsung 840 Evo 256gb SSD drive. Let me give you a rundown of my past 4 months...
October 2014. Purchased Thinkpad X120E. 1.5ghz processor and low memory made it horrible. Put in 8gb and bought the Samsung 840 Evo 256gb SSD drive. It made the laptop much more responsive but it still sucked...so I sold it. I kept the SSD drive for my 'future' thinkpad.I did the firmware update on the SSD as it required it. It currently has the most recent firmware. When I bought the SSD drive, I plopped it in, installed windows then openSUSE and enjoyed it for a bit. Never gave me an issue at all.
January 2015: Purchased an off-lease X220 with the 2.6ghz processor. Has a 320gig 7200rpm drive in it. Put in 16GB of memory and love it.After playing with it for a bit, I did the most recent BIOS upgrade (1.39) and prepared it for the SSD install.I put in the Samsung 840 evo. Turning on the laptop it sits at thinkpad logo a lot longer then usual. After a bit it goes to the Error 2100.I went into the BIOS, HDD is not detected at all.I kept trying to boot/restart but no go. I always see that Error 2100. I can tell when it won't boot because the thinkpad logo sits for a long time and it seems that the HDD light is always on.I tried to boot with and without UEFI...no go.
I tried to boot with SATA as AHCI or compatibility, no goI put the Samsung drive into a dock and attached it to a laptop. Disk management see's the drive. I can format it and all.I put the SSD drive then into a friend’s computer tower. I formatted the drive using the Samsung software. I tried to put it back into my laptop last night, no go. Drive is not being read.My friends desktop detects the drive in his BIOS just fine...
I believe this is an issue between the BIOS and the SSD/firmware. I looked at some of the updates for SSD's and the thinkpad BIOS, they identify a small part of the model number of the samsung drive but it is not the same.
My laptop was working fine but then 5 minutes later after I shut down, I realized I forgot something so I started it back up again to find that after the Lenovo logo screen I would get a Fan Error message and the laptop shuts back down. Now I can't get into my computer at all.

I recently upgraded my ThinkPad T430s to Windows 8 Pro and ever since my ultrabay battery gives me an error when ever I restart or turn the machine on. It goes away after I hit ok and the battery appears to still be functioning but the error is super annoying. I have the latest drivers and software from Lenovo and I have already had the battery replaced via tech support. Its so annoying i'm tempted to see if I can just get the whole unit swapped.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Thinkpad Twist. I started it up and got a thermal sensing error before the boot screen. I looked up the error on various forums, tried turning it off to see if the message would still be there. When I rebooted it, it went away. Should I still be concerned for the fan or CPU?
My laptop has been overheating before this, but it's never shut itself down, even after the error message.
Just received 2 new X220 thinkpads - I'm attempting to burn factory recovery disks on a lenovo USB multifunction cd/dvd drive.
I receive the 'error unexpected error occurred (rc=9)' when attempting to burn the disks - I came across another forum suggesting that the first disk is a CD and the rest should be DVD - This worked to burn the recovery media - however when I inserted a DVD to continue the rest of the recovery media I receive the aforementioned error.
I have gotten 1 of them to complete a full set of disks - 4 in total. The other one, no such luck.
when I run "eccmd -info" in command I get the error " eccmd exited with error 0x10df (4319)".
What does it mean exactly? What should I do to get it solved?
I have X240
Win 8.1 pre installed
ExpressCache 1.3.110 preinstaled
and SanDisk 16GB SSD.
I got myself a L430 last February and like working with this laptop.
Within this laptop there is an Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2200 (2x2), PCIe Half Mini Card [1] plugged-in.
Like described in the linked article the card is only usable for the 2.4 GHz band but I realized this only after bying the laptop. At home we normally have a 5 GHz band and I'm only able to use it at the moment using an external wlan stick.
That could not be that hard we thought, because for Lenovo laptops there are manuals out there describing how to swap such a WLan card. We decided to take the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 because this card should work with my L430.
We ordered the new card and plugged it in. But after every restart the laptop beeps twice and gives an error message: Unauthorized Wireless USB card is plugged in - Power off and remove the Wireless USB card. (error 1805)
On the site I mentioned last is described we should update to "Intel Wireless LAN (11abgn, abg, bg) for Windows 7 version 15.3.1.2 or higher", but now the links doesn't get you anywhere.Some weeks ago, when we tried this, we updated the driver more than once but without success for the new wlan card and at the moment I'm stuck to use the 2.4 GHz band (or use the external wlan stick).
Why doesn't allow my L430 swapping the wlan card? The new one is from the same manufacturer, both have the same number of antennaes.
The laptop was no discount product and nowhere in the papers I read that only some cards are usable!
