Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T On Screen Keyboard Not Movable Anymore

Feb 24, 2013

I have a problem with the on screen touch keyboard of the X230T. I cannot move it around anymore using the finger or stylus. Moving it with the touchpad is still possible. Also the "dock"-option is deactivated. Which driver I would have to reinstall for the on screen keyboard? Is it a Windows- or a Wacom-component?

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T Dolby Advanced Audio V2 Not Working Anymore Since Realtek Driver Update

Nov 30, 2012

I just updated the Realtek Audio Driver this morning when I saw the update available in the Update center.  The driver went from v 6.0.1.6914 to v 6.0.1.7040.  Now, the Dolby Advanced Audio v2 won't work.  It forgot my previous EQ settings and when I make a new one, it doesn't change a thing in the sound.  Is there a way to roll back to the previous version?
 
This is really bad as I'm listening to lots of music on this laptop while I'm working and without the Dolby EQ, the sounds is not very good...
 
I'm under Windows 8.1 64-bit.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T Multitouch Screen Lost Sensitivity

Dec 23, 2008

The brand new multitouch worked for 2 days while I was setting up the laptop and my files. I played with it for about an hour tonight. The X230T was running on battery, I plugged in the power cord, and the screen became totally unresponsive. As insensitive as a school bully in a bridal shower.
 
Per instructions at [URL] .... -- I'm running Windows 7, 64bit -- I uninstalled and reinstalled the ISD multitouch driver, 7wge69ww.exe. No go.
 
The only input device that now works is the mouse -- not the pen, not a finger. 
 
Considering that my other X230 was sent to the shop last week (with a second dead motherboard in less than a year), I'm starting to wonder about Lenovo.

Lenovo X230T X / Helix Tablet :: ThinkPad CPU Overheating?

Aug 14, 2014

 About 6 months ago I bought a ThinkPad 230t and the battery usually lasts 5-6 hours. Since a few days ago whenever it is on the battery the CPU starts to overheat with a noticeable fan noise and the battery does not last longer than 2.5 hours. There is a significant high CPU usage when the battery is on (even if the adaptor is connected). The battery does not heat itself at all. Only when I remove the battery the overheating stops. I could not find any program in the task manager which is causing this and I updated all the drivers and BIOS but no change so far on this issue.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230t Support Display Port 1.2?

Jan 10, 2014

I have this laptop and just bought 3 dell u2414h monitors. They are supposed to support dp 1.2 daisy chaining ,but I have not been able to get it to work. Dell support was atrocious. The only reason I can think of that this isn't working is because my laptop doesn't support it.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T / Slow Scroll After Swipe On Windows 8

Nov 15, 2012

I have an X230T running Windows 8 and working quite well with it.
 
I face a Problem with using Windows 8, the scroll speed after swiping (f. e. in Internet Explorer or start menu) is pretty slow. For example: you have loaded a web page in IE 10 which has lots of text and you scroll down using a swipe - the page starts to scroll but soon the movement is de-accelerated and the scroll movement stops very soon with little gain of area.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T Not Shutting Down After BIOS - System And Windows Update

Mar 2, 2012

Yesterday, I saw on the Lenovo System Update app, that I had couple critical and optional updates. These were the updates:

WER Patch
Lenovo Comm Utility
Lenovo Power Management Driver
ThinkPad Power Manager
Intel WLAN Driver
BIOS 2.60.1.14
 
There were couple updates on the Windows Side.  I ran all of them in one session so I can't really say if windows messed up something or the System Update is responsible but since yesterday I can no longer shutdown my x230t i7 Win 7 Pro. I closes the desktop and then it gets to the screen where you'll see a spinning wheel and the words "Shutting Down":
 
But it will hang there forever and never actually shuts down. I have to press and hold down power button to shutdown.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X230T / Digitizer Doesn't Work Well On Windows 8.1 / OneNote 2013

Nov 13, 2013

I recently did a clean install of Windows 8.1 on my X230T, and also installed Office 2013.

I need to use the digitizer with OneNote 2013 heavily for taking lecture notes. 
 
As I did when I was using Windows7, I set the side button on the digitizer to "eraser" and expect that it works properly.

Unfortunately, when I tried to press the button to switch the tip from the pen mode to the eraser mode, the behavior

of the digitizer becomes pretty strange. 

(1) If I remain the tip close to the screen, it would not switch to the eraser mode

(2) if I move the tip a little higher and let the cursor disappear, then hold the button and move the tip back to the screen, I SOMETIMES get the eraser mode; but it doesn't switch back to the pen mode even if I release the button.

I need to again move the tip far away from the screen and release the button to get the pen mode back.
 
I downloaded the up-to-date driver from Wacom but it doesn't work.

Also, I cannot find the driver for this functionality for Windows 8.1 on Lenovo website;the latest version of multitouch driver only supports Windows 7 and older versions of windows.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Cursor Moves When In Tablet Mode (screen Touching Pointing Stick On X220T)

Jun 12, 2011

When I put my X220T in tablet mode, the screen moves just enough to move the pointing stick in the middle of the keyboard to cause the cursor to move. I can't rest my hand on the screen without causing the cursor to move all the way accross the screen.
 
Am I missing a driver that would disable the nub when the screen is turned over it, or is this a design oversight? I've got the latest BIOS.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Keyboard Dock Fan Error

Jun 3, 2013

I just had this message while rebooting:

"Keyboard Dock Fan error. Press Esc to continue."

This is an error I have never had before. As for now, the Helix is working. I had to reset the dock using a paper clip. Before the error message appeared, I had used the Helix as a tablet. After switching back to the keyboard, batteries stopped charging and the keyboard was not recognized.

Rolling back to the previous firmware update, if this is possible at all? In any case, I had rather not wait for another release. 

As far as my personal USB problems are concerned, the Bios update 1.23 was the quantum leap. With the new firmware update I could not see any improvements on this side either.

I do have to add that my average CPU temperature is now suspiciously higher, even if it is only a few points.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: What Does A Fast Blinking LED On ThinkPad Keyboard Mean

May 10, 2013

I checked the PDF manual and don't see this condition. The scenario is my Helix is docked to its keyboard, plugged in and asleep. The "i" LED is slow blinking (sleep mode). I open the lid (which is set to wake up the Helix) and the dot on the tablet goes solid red (on) but the "dot" on the keyboard is doing a fast-blink. It's done this about three times over the month I've had my Helix.
 
I should add that manually putting the Helix to sleep, then waking it back up, clears the flashing LED on the keyboard.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: End / Insert Keys Swapped On Keyboard

May 17, 2013

On the keyboard, the "End/Insert" key is labeled such that it looks like End should be the default behavior. ("End" is printed in the same size type as "Home" on the neighboring key, with "Insert" in smaller type.) I would expect that key to be the End key, and that with Fn held down it would become Insert.
 
In fact, the opposite is true--Insert is the default behavior, and I have to hold down Fn to get End. This seems like a mistake, since it's not consistent with the labels, and in any event it's very inconvenient--I use the End key a lot, and Insert almost never.
 
I have swapped my Fn and Ctrl keys in the BIOS, if that makes a difference.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Getting Blue Screen When Using Touchpad

Nov 4, 2013

I keep getting a blue screen of death every few hours when using the touchpad:

 DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (syntp.sys)
 
The windows 8 pro that shipped with my Helix keeps crashing a few times a day.

Lenovo seems to be updating their driver every few weeks, but they are not fixing my problem!

I've enabled most of the fancy settings in the driver options, so who knows if mine is a bad combination...

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Screen And Touch Interface Seems To Be Disabled

Apr 13, 2011

When I place my LCD into tablet mode, sometimes my mouse wanders slowly on the screen and the touch interface seems to be disabled.  After some trial and error I found that the culprit is that my TrackPoint is gently rubbing against the backside of the LCD. I found that I could make the mouse cursor move rapidly back and forth on the screen just by gently putting pressure on sides of the LCD when the laptop in tablet mode. I own two x220t devices, and this happens on both of them. My TrackPoint touch sensitivity is set 2 ticks to the left of the most sensitive setting.
 
I remember reading somewhere that the TrackPad is disabled when the laptop detects that the LCD is swiveled into tablet mode, so that it doesn't accidentally move the mouse.  Could the TrackPoint be similarly disabled so that it doesn't generate these phantom mouse movements?

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Screen Auto Rotation Does Not Work?

Jun 16, 2013

I have installed a clean Windows 8.1 on the Helix and have several issues. Putting them into several threads so they can be answered independently. The first thing I did after installing the system (and critical Windows Updates) was running the Lenovo System Update tool and downloading everything.
 
Screen rotation does not work. In “Device Manager” I can see “C5621 gw Mobile Broadband Geolocation Sensor” and “Hid Sensor Collection”. The HID one has an exclamation mark next to it. Are there some drivers I need to download to make this work. I did of course check if screen rotation is not locked – it is not (I did turn it on/off a couple of times, without any effect). Manual rotation (using display settings) works fine.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Completely Stuck And Camera On After Screen Saver

Apr 26, 2013

Sometimes when I leave my Helix alone the screen saver kick in. When I try to use the Laptop again after a while, it has turned on the (back) camera and the camera app is completely stuck. No swipe, no Alt-F4 or Alt tab can get it out of there. I have to hold the powerbutton down for a hard-power off.
  
Seems to me this is a software problem. I tried to install the new Settings app this morning. (this refreshes the camera sw and other drivers) but no improvements. Same problem remains.

Feb 6, 2012

I have an X220 convertable laptop but the mouse cursor is driving me mad.  It randomly jumps around the screen; clicks things and generally makes working really hard.

No problems found.I have diabled and installed drivers; changed mouse settings; reistalled USB drivers; tried a corded mouse and nomouse other than the touchpad.  Nothing works.Lenovo support say they think it is a hardware problem; they sent me a new keyboard.  i put the new keyboard in (really easy to do).  No difference.Lenovo want me to return my machine for evaluation but i use it every day..I make mony on my computer and cannot affort to lose it for the minimum 4 days max 10 days they want it for service.  If i cannot work for 4 days I might as well go and buy another computer and throw this one in the bin!

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: X200 - Wacom Pen Blue Screen Of Death On Windows 7

Dec 17, 2011

I have a Lenovo x200 tablet PC (Stylus Only Version) - and recently installed Windows 7 Professional (64bit)
 
The OS install went perfectly...Once installed, I did all the Systems Updates for Windows 7, including all the updates for Lenovo using System Update 4.01.....However, I have an issue that I cannot seem to figure out...
 
PROBLEM # 1 The biggest issue I now face is, whenever I put the Digitized Pen next to the Tablet Screen within 2 seconds I get the 'Blue Screen of Death'....and it automatically Reboots....This ONLY happens when I touch the Pen to the screen....
 
I uninstalled the 'Wacom Drivers' - within the Device Manager, which i assume were installed by the system update(s)....After, uninstalling the issue of the 'Blue Screen' from happening when the pen touches the screen is gone.....However, I have no way of being able to use the Pen...it does not show any cursor or inking....Is there a specific DRIVER that I should be installing on my own to make this work properly - without getting the 'Blue Screen of Death' each time?....
 
PROBLEM # 2 My Second issue, which is suddenly occured after day 2 of installing updates is the Lenovo System Update 4.01 -- Suddenly, after working on day 1 - now, whenever i try to 'Check New Updates' i get a popup that says "An error was detected with the Package catalog for your system on the System Update Server. Please contact the Support Center".

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Will X200 Tablet Run VS2013 And Windows 8.1 Well?

Sep 9, 2014

I want to get a x200 tablet (7453-AH3) just for programming classes, but wonder whether x200 will run VS2013 with win8.1 well, such as response speed, smooth or not, a lot lags or not, etc.. Also, will OneNote work well on it?
 
If I put a SSD in, will that make it better? If not, is that possible to upgrade X200 tablet motherboard & CPU to make it better?

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: ThinkPad X230 Login Screen Not Appearing - Black Display With Cursor

Jun 21, 2013

I have a ThinkPad X230 Tablet. I tried system restore and safe mode, but none of it works.
 
After windows loads with the glowing animation, the login screen does not appear. I cannot open a task manager. I don't know if it's a problem with explorer.exe or what.
 
The explorer.exe crashed when I tried to connect to an external hard drive, and I tried to get task manager to open, but it wouldn't open.
 
That's when I tried to restart computer, and login screen would not appear. All I have is a black screen with cursor.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Cannot Run XP Mode

May 9, 2008

I just intalled a new disk that is running quite well, except that I cannot run xpmode.  I get the warning that I need to alter the bios, but not setting exists on the chip to alter it for virtualization.  Why could it run before on the same chip, but no longer.  Is there a workaround.  Is there a way to copy the settings from the old hard drive?  I suspect not, but I am sometimes an optimist.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Function Key Always Pressed

Jan 10, 2014

My function key is always on so that I have to press it when I want it to be off. An example of this would be that I have to hit Fn+Alt+F4 if I want to close a window. I believe this has to do with me downloading a BIOS update for Windows 8 but I cannot find how to disable it.

At first it works - i put helix to sleep, and i can see after some time that the led stops flashing so the tablet goes to hibernation. However, after lying some time it wakes up again, and stays in sleep mode, and not hibernated mode, and thus, eventually runs out of battery.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: ThinkPad With No LCD Backlight

Oct 4, 2014

I am having a problem with a ThinkPad Helix and was looking for some advice on the troubleshooting process. The tablet was dropped and it suffered some damage. When I received the tablet I noticed that it still powered on but there was no video. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the monitor is still displaying video but it is very dim. When I shine a flashlight to the monitor I can see the windows logon screen and the touch panel recognizes me tapping the screen.
 
The first thing that I tried was replacing the cables that connect the monitor to the motherboard as some of them looked like they had forcefully been removed. This had no effect on the issue as the monitor was still very dim when I powered it on.
 
I thought that the monitor was the problem and decided to replace the entire screen assembly. I was able to get another monitor that matched the part number of mine and swapped it with the old one. When I turned it on after swapping the monitor I stil the had a very dim screen. If it wasn't the monitor or the cables that connect the monitor to the motherboard then the only thing that was left was the motherboard.
 
Again, I found a replacement motherboard for the unit and swapped it. When I powered it on I still had the same issue as before, very dim video. It doesn't look like the thinkpad helix has an lcd inverter or I would have tried replacing that first.

Lenovo X / Helix Tablet :: Fan Error On X201

Jun 4, 2013

When I start my X201 Tablet, I always get a Fan error message.
 
I used compressed air - then it worked for a couple of days, but not anymore.
 
When I take of the keyboard, I see that the fan is starting to spin, but suddendly stops right before the error message.
 
Should I replace the fan, or might it be a problem with the motherboard - and how am I then able to fix it?
