• IdeaPad Y500 battery status always led ON

  Hi, I have Ideapad Y500. There for 2 months I use it. I keep the charger connected always using 100% charged. The present battery status light on the left side of the base of the laptop is turned on for a few days, even if I unplug the charger from the socket. Why is this happening? Is this due to the excessive load? Help, please...

  Hi KrishnaFT9,

  Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!

  Always on battery indicator indicates that the battery has a sufficient charge to power the computer and when the indicator turns red means that the battery needs to be recharged, it is the new type of indication and it is normal and there is no need to worry.

• IdeaPad Y500 "Windows doesn't detect any hardware networking".

  Hello

  I have problems with my recently purchased Lenovo Ideapad Y500 because it is impossible to connect to the internet. As a first step, the connection worked well and I managed to set up the connection Wireless using an ethernet cable.

  The problems started when I installed the F-Secure virus/firewall program - in the middle of the installation process (some time after the installation tool uninstalled MacAfee default program) the laptop became unresponsive. First of all everything except the background color disappeared, then the screen went completely empty and the laptop has not responded to other buttons. I waited for about 20 minutes until what I pressed the button for a few seconds in order to stop the laptop.

  The laptop rebooted normally, and the installation of F-Secure program was still underway. However, because the laptop had been closed at halfway, I decided to cancel the installation and re-install the program. I removed the parts installed with Control Panel tools, to realize that the wireless internet from the laptop disappeared.

  The laptop detects all connections; the network group says no connection is available. Previously, before the strange white screen problem, the Panel showed several nearby wi - fi networks. When I try to connect via the Network Center and sharing, I get only "Windows does not detect any networking hardware." Connect the ethernet cable (connected to the modem/router) makes no difference.

  I managed to solve this problem. For some reason, the pilots of two network components have been updated but did not work, so I did a restore on those, the question of fixing.

• IdeaPad Y500 problems windows installation 7/8

  Hello, I just bought all new IdeaPad Lenovo Y500 650 m SLI. It came without windows OS (BACK only) - I'm in Europe, so configuration may be slightly different. Now, I want to install 8 64-bit windows. I have a genuine copy of windows 8 (via MSAA/Dreamspark) and he wrote in the pendrive (USB drive bootable in fact of course). I used it to check on my old laptop, I was able to get into the installer without any problems.

  But I can't get the installer to work on my Y500. Once I have inserted the USB and turn on my laptop I get frozen over "lenovo" splash screen or the same screen then black screen and a reboot (essentially the computer restarts every 2-3 seconds).

  I tried different settings in the BIOS. I changed the for Legacy Support, but not good UEFI boot mode. I have tried deactivation/activation of start secure, not good.

  And the USB boot is probably active.

  Overall, I played with many different combinations such as the various parameters of the BIOS, different usb keys, different versions of installation (I even tried Windows 7, same problem)

  If I boot my computer without usb key, it seems to start on BACK normally.

  Help, please!

  Hi all

  I managed to solve this problem by simply buying a new USB 2.0 flash drive.

  Turns out that 2 different USB keys I tried before, for some reason any have not accepted by the laptop (Interestingly - why?).

  I hope this helps if someone runs into the same problem

• GPU problems Lenovo IdeaPad y500 - 650 SLI gt

  Hi all, about a week I have a new laptop Lenovo y500 with GeForce GT 650 SLI.
  I am satisfied with the performance of the laptop, and I think it's the best choice in this price range.
  Battlefield3 works perfectly in FULL HD resolution and SECONDARY settings.
  However, I have a small problem, I don't know if there is something wrong with the hardware or drivers.
  From time to time, for example, play League of Legends, browse Web sites or view switching to Battlefield3 for windows appears a mistake that the graphics driver has stopped working, but found its proper functioning.
  For a moment, the screen goes black and back to normal. I installed different drivers GeForce site as 310.90 WHQL Beta 313.96 or manufacturer dedicated Lenovo Nvidia Video Driver for Windows 7 (64 bit) - IdeaPad Y400, Y500 dated November 4, 2012, none of them help and the problem persists.
  What do you think? problem is the driver bcs or bcs material? Maybe something wrong with the motherboard or other drivers component? or maybe just a few parameters need to be addressed? I'll be very grateful for your help, what you sugest do?

  I bought new Y500 without any windows or the drivers included, installed Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 and all the site drivers lenovo driver.

  it becomes more annoying more I use the laptop

  Hope to get some info on your part, what should I do to eliminate this problem of pilot ;(

  
  

• Z400: z400 upgrade help

  Hi I have an old z400 who was literally given to me for free. I want to upgrade, but I don't know if the parts I want would be compatible. After looking around I discovered that only certain PSU, cpu and gpu are compatible?

  Here are some quick specs:
  CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT
  Intel Xeon W3520 @ 2.67GHz 32 ° c.
  Bloomfield 45nm technology
  RAM
  8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 533 MHz
  Motherboard
  Hewlett-Packard 0B4Ch (CPU0 PROCESSOR) 58 ° C
  Graphics
  2470W (1920x1080@60Hz)
  1023MB NVIDIA Quadro 600 (HP) 44 ° c.

  ignore the temperature directly, I copied and pasted of speccy.

  So I guess I still have the stock psu that is 475w.

  I want to update the graphics card and processor, which means I may have to upgrade the PSU as well. maybe even the motherboard

  Ive been looking for decent gpu and CPU and I want to move to an i5 4460 and has 750 ti.

  I don't know if they are compatible but I am of course in the hope that they are. also ive been watching this food called Delta DF-650BB, because someone said it might be compatible. idk. also should I get a new fan? 58 ° C sounds like a lot for the motherboard.

  Im very new to this so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

  AUQA,
  
  The z400 uses the excellent Xeons LGA1366 and while the original specifications don't list them, there are results on the pass mark for 4-wire Clippers W3500 and W3600 6 - core, 6-core more X 5600 series 4 and 6-core Xeon. There are a wide range of some very good processors.
  
  The i5-4460 mentioned is for the taking of LGA1150 and therefore would not work on this motherboard, but a good choice of CPU would be the 4-core Xeon X 5677 @ 3.46 3.73 GHz - $1500 new, now about $60.  In my system LGA1366, X 5677 made a side CPU 7133.  Only a modern clock speed and single-thread performance is not bad = 1518. There is also the X 5687, who is 4-core @ 3.6 GHz 3.86. On the PassMark, a z400 with a X 5687 has a CPU of 7373 and mono-thread of 1577.  The current W3530 has an average rating of 6370 CPU which is not terrible, but the brand of single-thread of 1261 is a bit on the low side for any level of visualization work.
  
  There are 24, z400 on the pass mark by using the Ti of 750 GTX with a best score of 4 d being 4322.  NVIDIA presents the GTX 750 it for systems with a minimum of 400W PSU, while and the number of results in the pass mark must say it is not necessary to change the power supply.
  
  On any system of this age, updated the BIOS. In addition, the RAM, which is listed on 533 is likely to be DDR3 1066, while the X 5677 and other higher end of the DDR3 1333 CPU consumption. The z400 is triple channel so the best results will be to use the RAM in sets of three modules of the same size.
  
  An SSD wake things up considerably and I would say a Samsung 750 EVO. Regardless of the z400 uses as it is uprated CPU cooler is the one to use.
  
  See you soon,.

• HP pavilion p6-2469ea: upgrade help

  Hi, I currently plan on upgrading my hp pavilion p6-2469ea to be able to run more demanding games upstairs, as the ARK: survival has evolved and I have no experience with computers I'm stuck help then about what it needs to be updated and some recommendations would be much appreciated. Just to note that I have already updated the 8 GB ram.

  @TomM123, welcome to the forum.

  Here are the system requirements for ARK: survival has evolved:

  http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=23214 & Game = Ark: % 20Survival % 20Evolved

  It is clear from your processor and memory are fine.  I suggest that you upgrade to at least a 750Ti GTXvideo card.  Read the reviews to see what users have to say about it.

  You may need to upgrade the power supply (PSU), also.  The EVGA 750Ti said it will work with a power supply with 300W.  However, most of the members have reported needing at least 400W.  If you replace the power supply, I love the Corsair products.  A modular power supply is best for medium-sized business.  It allows you to use only the cables than absolutely necessary.  I recommend at least 500W.  This will give you a high power for the maximum level of use.

  A final element that will make a major difference is an SSD.  I love Samsung SSD.  They seem to move better without the need to change the BIOS settings.  The only need is to make sure that the BIOS is set to AHCI.  The DSS will not work if it is not setup in this way.

• HP Pavilion p7-1030 graphic card upgrade help

  OK, so I have a desktop HP Pavilion p7-1030, and the graphics card is crap, I need to update something much better.
  
  I know that I'll probably need a new power supply too, if anyone knows a good combo?

  Also, where can I find the old graphics card and POWER supply in order to remove and replace?

  I'm playing BF3, so it must be good.
  
  Any help is appreciated.

  Zxcvbnm0, welcome to the forum.

  According to the specifications of the computer, there is only the embedded video.  It is integrated in the motherboard, so you cannot remove it.  It will be automatically disabled when a discreet card is installed.  Integrated video is never good for video intensive games or other programs.

  I like Corsair and OCZ PSU.  I recommend at least 500W.  This will give you more choices of video cards.  You must measure the current PSU and compare the measurements to the one you choose.  Normally, I buy my parts from Newegg.

  Here is an example of a good food:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817139028

  I like the graphics cards XFX, EVGA, Sapphire and PNY in that order.  I recommend you to stay at 9 "long or less.  This ensures that it will not go in the space provided.

  Here is an example of a video card that should work:

  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814150561

  The PSU is where the power cord is connected.  If you do upgrades, it will help mark the wires of the PSU to make sure that you connect them correctly.  The connectors of the motherboard must be labelled, and more, the wires on the new power supply.

• Satellite 4090XCDT - Memory Upgrade help needed

  Hello reader,.

  I own a Toshiba Satellite 4090 XCDT notebook and it came originally with windows 98SE and 64 MB of ram, but I installed Windows 2000 pro and I need to upgrade the memory, I did some Google research on the specs of this laptop and found that this machine is capable of 192 MB of ram , but there is one memory slot, how is possible to get this upgrade when require sticks of memory 128 + 64 = 192 MB, that would mean I'd need two memory sticks to reach the range of 192 MB, from what I see here is therefore the only memory of memory bank.

  Could someone please point me in the right direction and provide me a solution to my problem, any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Cheers MagicBytes :D

  When the memory is empty, the amount of memory is reported?

  If its 64 MB, then you simply install a 128 MB module to achieve 192 MB

• Cursor disappeared on my IdeaPad after upgrade to 8.1 Windows

  Recently, I upgraded my Ideapad to 8.1 Windows with my graphics driver as well as another driver.

  After upgrading my pointer disappeared on restart. My mouse pointer appears always as usual at the login screen, but after I login, it disappears. The cursor is still active, so I can still run applications, but the cursor is not visible and it is very frustrating.

  If someone has encountered this problem with their upgrade and if so, would you be able to share something with me?

  Thank you

  Only, I have solved my problem. After upgrade to Windows 8.1, I noticed that the Pen & Touch option was no longer available in my control panel.

  For those of you who own a Wacom tablet, you need to reinstall you Wacom using the CD they provide and that should solve your problem immediately.

  Windows was going to charge me $160 to fix the problem, saying that my computer must be riddeled with the Trojans, which is the reason why my cursor was not show.
