I'm a home user and use the laptop for a limited time. I don't understand why lenova did not provide a removable battery that can be changed by the user only.

Now new battery is not available on the market, also that Lenova simply made it their responsibility saying laptop in not less than warranty.

I ask Lenovo go to analysis of root causes of this problem that hundreds of people face the same problem in this model.

Hope Lenovo would provide some software to assist the problem or at least to give the details of the service provider where the batteries can be repaired or replaced.

  • Battery IdeaPad Z510 problem

    Hello everyone,

    Last week, I installed 10 64-bit Windows on my laptop (Ideapad z510).

    The first time my laptop is suddenly turned off, but the battery was far from empty according to windows. When I tried to start again it appeared that the battery was empty.

    I noticed that the percentage that windows reports is incorrect. After 2 hours without power my battery was normally about 30%. Now, it was still above 90%.

    I have installed power manager and I use the balanced profile.

    Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem?

  • How to install W8 in Mode for Lenovo Ideapad Z510 UEFI?

    Hello world

    I've been struggling with the w8 installation on my laptop Ideapad z510 in UEFI mode, but not I could succeed it or me I found something that might help. I will explain clearly the case.

    Point 1:
    As I understand it, for successful installation in UEFI format w8, we need choose the mode of 'First UEFI"from the Boot Menu in the BIOS. Then, the source of the shoe must be specified to identify the rigid path to documents to be loaded so that the new OS could be installed correctly.

    Pharmacodependance1:
    It is possible to choose UEFI boot mode first, but it is not possible to choose the USB for UEFI boot path in this case, which does not allow to succeed a UEFI boot to your computer. You cannot reach the DVD or USB, the installation files are, and start the installation process.

    Point2:

    If we consider the first case, you must choose the Legacy Support of your computer startup mode and achieve the USB or DVD drive to install the new operating system on the computer.

    Problem2:
    To succeed the UEFI mode when the computer starts, you should see 4 different partitions on your drive to the point of disc selection, if you choose the disk you install your operating system. However, when you select the Legacy Support in BIOS mode, the disk partition is limited to 2 in my case, that are:

    • Main drive
    • Reserved system (350 MB)

    That is why, when I continue the installation, the OS is installed on the traditional way. After installation, when I go into the BIOS to choose the UEFI boot mode for mode, the laptop checks some network connections and said

    • EFI network failure 0 for IPv4
    • EFI network failure 0 for IPv6

    respectively.

    So, advice, aid, ideas and suggestions are gladly welcome to overcome this problem. Could you please help me?

    PS: Please don't say that "you can't install because your computer does not support", because I have received computer technical service and a W8 version has been installed in UEFI mode. However, I deleted to install W8 pro.

    Greetings,

    Okan

    First of all, your bootable USB key must be created in the UEFI. Just google and you will find solutions.

    You can install W8 mode UEFI. Just allow to boot from USB in BIOS, select Exit Saving changes and restart.

    I think it's your basic problem. Let me know if you have already done this and still having the problem.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad Z570 - problem disk MBR/GPT (or BIOS/UEFU)

    Hello!

    Someone would be kind enough to tell me how I can disable the UEFI BIOS of my Lenovo IdeaPad Z570 mode?
    (I can see very little things and options in the menu of the BIOS for the moment).
    It is necessary, as I want to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium on my computer and during installation there is an error message - while choosing the partition where to install the system: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is a MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows cannot be installed on GPT disks. »
    And I read somewhere that disable UEFI mode would solve the problem.

    Furthermore, I have ideas or suggestions for this problem.

    There are two solutions for your problem.

    CAVEAT! The two ways in which I am proposing are going to ERASE ALL OF YOUR DATA on YOUR HD! If you what you want to backup, copy before doing so.
    First of all, easy, is to delete all partitions on your drive through the windows setup utility. Then, windows will offer to convert GPT disk.
    Or, if windows is not this "automatic" way, you can convert GPT disk using diskpart.
    To do this, use this manual to access the http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/682-command-prompt-startup.html of the console

    Then, type following commands

    DiskPart

    Wait until it loads, then

    LIST DISK<-- this="" will="" list="" currently="" connected="" disks,="" you="" should="" determine="" which="" of="" the="" disks="" is="" the="" one="" on="" which="" you="" want="" to="" install="" windows="" and="" remember="" its="">

    SELECT DISK <0> <--you should="" replace=""> <0>with the number you had on the previous step, in most cases, it would be 0

    CLEAN

    CONVERT A GPT

    CREATE PARTITION EFI SIZE = 200 OFFSET = 1024

    SELECT PARTITION 1

    FORMAT FS = FAT32 QUICK

    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE = OFFSET = 206848

    SELECT PARTITION 2

    FORMAT FS = NTFS QUICK

    That should be all) after that, you should be able to install windows on your hard drive.

  • [SOLVED] Energy Win8.1 (Ideapad Z510) Manager

    Hello

    I am a new user of Lenovo (Ideapad Z510) with Win 8.1 and I have problems with a feature in Energy Manager (installed original Lenovo disk).

    In the settings menu, there is a function "zoom to screen." By using this feature, you should be able to enlarge and reduce the size of menus and icons using Fn + and Fn - buttons. I tried it and all my menus have become bigger, and I can't go back... Whenever I have press Fn - it just sort of plant. A few pictures to see the problem:

    (Sorry, that the menu is in Hungarian)

    (1) some features

    Link to photo

    (2) after pressing Fn - icon Manager duplicates the energy and all the bar becomes strange

    (3) all menus (right-click right, or even at the office) became huge

    Link to photo

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Note of the moderator; image (s) converted into programming on display images in Forums

    Oh, it seems that it is now resolved. If, instead of using the cursor (it has been on the smallest) I went from police in the menu below from 11 to 10, and now it seems fine. I tried to solve the problem with the cursor before, but have not thought to decrease the font size.

    Thank you for the help, Jonas!

  • How to invert the fn keys in ideapad z510

    Hello

    I recently bought a lenovo ideapad z510 and I have to press fn in order to use the f1 - f12 keys. Is there a way to change this trend so that I don't need to press fn to use the f1 to f12 keys?

    Hi moving.

    Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!

    Can you try to go to BIOS by pressing F2 when you power on the system

    Once inside the BIOS look for an option that says mode HOTKEY or hotkey, should be under the configuration tab.

    change this option and must reverse the use of the FN on your system.

    (Remember to press F10 once your done to save the changes you made.

    If the hot key mode is not available in BIOS, you may have to wait or consult on the download site of the Lenovo Support for BIOS updates

    Hope this helps

    See you soon!

  • Lenovo Ideapad 100: Removing the battery

    Hello, I have problems with my removing the battery. As my title says, I have a Lenovo ideapad 100, and I'm supposed to send it off for repairs. For my problem, I need to take out the battery because it is not part of the problem; However, I can't get out. I've read here to take off the base, but in trying to do this, it seems he breaks the internal clamps keep attached. I don't want to keep these break just to pay for them to be repaired afterwards. Is there an easier way to take this base off?

    Those who may be generic instructions. In the case of your machine, you can contact the Service to confirm, but my feeling is that it does not apply to batteries regarded as cards.

    Kind regards.

  • Lenovo Ideapad U310 speaker problem

    Hi all

    My U310 of Lenovo Ideapad has had problems of speaker,

    The headphones work correctly, but the built-in speakers that are Awefully located inbetween as the hinge and the base of the screen do not work.

    I first thought it was a problem with the headphone jack that could have cut the circuit internal speaker because of the incorrect removal of the headphone jack, but it is not true because I've noticed that its a problem with the angle I keep tilt of the screen.

    On the passage of the screen at any angle above 90 or 100 degrees, the speakers cut in and are activated once its below 80 degrees.

    I'm a little worried about the words on it?

    Kind regards

    raisedadead.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE!

    Thank you Alaa,

    The problem is now solved, mainly the mobile hinge was obstruction in fact the thread that connects the speakers, according to the service technician. Need to replace the wiring had been damaged by the hinge. A manufacturing problem small on the wire does not correctly connected to the hinge. Thank you
