IdeaPad Y510P problems

I just bought this laptop about a month ago to help me with the school. During the first week or two, it worked fine and everything was fine. Then about a week or two ago it began to act up. It freezes programs (firefox, IE, Chrome, explorer, Flash CC, mixer and a few other programs I install for the school.) Sometimes it freezes at startup and I pressed the power button to restart. Sometimes, when it restarts, it takes 10-15 minutes to start and load to the top of the login screen. Does anyone know whats going with her? I have heard many good things about the lenovo computers, but with this being my first experience, I'm not too impressed.

Thanks for the help. I was finally able to make fresh recharge to the factory settings and the computer seems to work very well. After a good day that it takes forever to start/stop, and I have to use the power button to turn off. I left him sitting on the screen (restart or shutdown) for more than 30 minutes and it is still just stuck there. Commissioning it seems to have no problem. The only thing I've done since the reload has been download and install the updates that it invites that I need.

  • configuration problem IdeaPad Y510p sleep

    About 2 weeks ago, I bought a Lenovo ideapad y510p laptop with graphics 750 m SLI. The first thing I did was to remove the excess of bloatware that comes with the laptop and have had a very positive experience with the machine together.

    Recently, I noticed if I let my laptop idle, he spends in sleep mode pretty quickly. I tried to adjust the Power Options in the control panel to allow the computer to stay awake for as long as an hour plugged and 15 minutes on the battery, but the laptop still go to sleep after having been slowed for only 60 seconds. In troubleshooting, I tried to re - download management utility of the energy that the laptop comes with, but still, he goes into sleep in about 60 seconds. I tried to update my video drivers too, but my computer tells me that they are currently up-to-date.

    I'm not sure what I should try, but if someone else has a suggestion, I'd be happy to give it a try.

    Thanks in advance,

    Apparently my problem disappeared!

    It is dificult for me indicate exactly what measures or combination of steps worked for me, but after selecting the option 'balanced' in the power settings and adjust that power to my taste options, my cell phone is always placed in standby mode after one minute ("sleep" mode had been established at 30 minutes). I have re-uploaded Lenovos "Energy management" utility and set the settings to my liking and also installed a windows update. After a system reset, it seems that I have total control over my settings of power once more!

    I don't know if the solution lies in the update of windows, the system restarts or management utility power, but one or more of the following has solved my problem. I hope someone out there finds this helpful thread!

    Thank you very much

  • IdeaPad y510p clean Windows 7 install - SSD not detected

    I bought a new Ideapad y510p just before Christmas and I wanted to do a clean install of Windows 7-64 bit.

    I created a USB startup device as required and put the drivers from lenovo on her page too.

    My problem is: after you delete the partitions, the installer of windows 7 do not recognize the SSD more...
    My BIOS is set with legacy of disabled secure boot support.

    Furthermore, when it came to load the drivers, it says no driver signed device not found.

    Someone has an idea of what's going on?

    Hi Clet,

    Since the serial number on this picture, you have the 59375625 model. After digging further, this parts search page and this point merchant does not seem an SSD on the specifications list. If the reception / box indicates that you have a 1 TB + 24 GB SSD, you may need to check under the hood (see pages 38-39 of the hardware maintenance manual)

  • Lenovo ideapad y510p boot on CD/DVD

    Hello

    Just had the laptop y510p and I am trying to install Ubuntu, so I have this DVD bootable and I wanted to try out Ubuntu before you install as usual, but I can't get the laptop to bot on dvd. On the start menu options, there are only EFI and a kind of network options but not dvd.

    I tried following the instructions here, but regardless of how many times I press F1 during boot, I can't start menu and windows starts directly:

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_CY/downloads/detail.page?docid=HT036814

    Is it not possible to boot on dvd. The dvd is supposedly compatible with EFI and secure boot ubuntu 13.10.

    I don't understand why there is no option to rearrange devices to boot on my old PC.

    I managed to get the BIOS configuration by pressing the restart and Maj and then selecting settings UEFI firmware and I chance to the configurations of the bios, but still no way to find the option to start on a dvd.

    Any advice? Thank you

    Although for Windows 7 the problem is perhaps that he does not support UEFI and or secure boot?

    In windows 8 type ctr + C then the power button, then press Caps + restart and then chose the option help out and something UEFI and you will restart in the bios, then you can change the settings to disable secure boot and/or inherited instead of the UEFI boot.

    When you press F12 is the start menu, but you won't see that entries that are UEFI-compatible (if you are using the UEFI) either CD or USB

  • Y510P problems with plug headphones

    Hello. Unfortunately, this is my first post on the forums of Lenovo.

    I bought Ideapad Y510P this week and here I first problem with it. This is a new computer, was only transported in the car, laid flat in his box. Today was the first day I tried connect headset.

    When I plug them in at bottom right part just works. The left side is all silent. When I try to hook them up slowly, only left side works until I plug them all way in and only the right side then gives sound.

    When I plug my headphones to halfway in (very difficult to achieve and the plug won't stay in all), both parties give sound properly.

    Tried it with 3 different working pairs of headphones.

    Check all the drivers (Realtek HD Audio) and it works. The work of speakers, wonderfully, only the headphone gives me problems.

    What could be wrong?

    I must say that I was pretty desperate.
    The laptop was taken instead I bought in and replaced by a new because it was within a week of purchase.

    The service said it was a problem "integrated", coming from the product being badly done.
    I wish I have a better solution for the Rangers, but the subject is now ready to be closed that I have a new thing.

  • Replace hard drive SSD in IdeaPad y510p

    Hi all

    I've had the IdeaPad y510p for a while now. This is the model with dual graphics, 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB HDD + 24GB SSD combo. (If you need me to be more precise, let me know). The 5400 hard drive RPM was slow this machine and I recently bought a 512 GB SSDS.

    Is this compatible with the laptop? Of my little knowledge of hard drives, I assumed it was and picked it up.

    Also, how I go on my PC cloning so that everything can be copied on the SSD drive, including start-up and all files and recovery partitions.

    And one last thing. Is the separate 24 GB SSD or the part the 1 TB HARD drive... in other words, can I keep the secondary, more small SSD in as well?

    Thanks in advance!


  • Lenovo Ideapad y510p - memory upgrade

    So since Christmas is coming, I thought it would be cool to upgrade my 8 GB RAm 16 GB my question is: what type of card Gerard, I need my lenovo ideapad y510p? and what I have to change my old memory card aswell if im buying a new?

    Also is it easy to change the RAM cards?

    The worst thing that can happen is that memory does not work with full 1866MTs, but it will certainly work.

    The first is a 2.5 "drive, so you should replace your hard drive with it. The other works, but not as a cache. If you do not want to buy a form mSATA SSD, it is best to install the top OS. Kingston is not the best brand when it comes of SSD. Discover Crucial, Samsung, Plextor. It would be a good idea to read some current reviews and comparisons of the SSD. always keep the highest priority on reliability.

  • Lenovo ideapad Y510P what kind of hard drive is this?

    Hi people,

    I have a question. Today I want to defragment my Ideapad Y510P, but I don't know why I have 5 stations of hard drive? What type of disc is \\?\Volume{3db4... (see photo)

    Gamenick wrote:
    But that disk station is fragmented by 29%, it does not matter?

    As noted that the partition has been created by the operating system. I don't know what (probably for recovery). Since there is a schedule for Defrag I think it will be supported by the system when the time comes. So I just deal with C and D and leave the others alone. The other two partitions should be used by OKR.

  • IdeaPad Y510p lights.

    I have recently bought an ideapad y510p from newegg a few days ago. I tried to put in place and all that, try to get rid of programs that came preloaded with the laptop because I don't think that I would need them. I then close, put it down and open again and now it won't turn. It seems that both the power light and the battery are both, as well as the power light, but the screen itself is empty and I can't hear the computer being on. I tried holding down the power button / stop and resetting, as well as the battery and using only the AC to see if things were going to turn on but nothing works. I'm worried I might have deleted something important, but I was especially removal programs related to media players of poor quality and other similar services. It is quite upsetting I just got this laptop and he already died on me!

    I tried this procedure, nothing happened. For some strange reason when I press on and hold the power button, the light if turned off but just because I have my finger light is switched on immediately.

    I'll take the initiative and move forward to send it to lenovo for repair. It is covered by the warranty, so I'm more worried that I am pained and frustrated by the situation.

  • Install Windows 7 on a laptop IdeaPad Y510p of Windows 8

    My friend just got his new laptop IdeaPad Y510p today, but as he doesn't like Windows 8, I gave her a Windows 7 disc to put on instead (as I know the drive works, as I used it twice before on two different computers). Shut down the computer, put in the disc and went to the bios to change the boot order. Windows 7 download, but when it gets to the startup screen that says "Starting Windows" with three red, yellow and blue balls, he runs for a second, but then freezes and does nothing after that. He tried to restart the computer, but it still does the same thing. He also tried by pressing the button on the side of the computer recovery, but this does not, either. What should we do?

    Hi cheyenne1433,

    Thanks for posting and welcome to the community. Based on what you have posted here, you must change the Startup Mode in the BIOS. I'm here for WOOD > "STARTUP" tab > and change the Startup Mode for Legacy Support. Then save the settings and try to reinstall the operating system again...

    I hope this helps.

    Let me know how it goes.

  • IdeaPad Y510P RAM problem.

    I have a Y510p ideapad. I get windows errors MEMORY_MANAGEMENT bsod specially. I'm changing my strips of memory and I don't know what kind of ram will take the system. I discovered that the first DDR3L RAM are installed inside. I want to know is the system will take DDR3 RAM or not instead of DDR3L RAM.

    For the bsod problem try to start windows memory diagnostic tool. This is based on your expanded it is a memory problem.

    For the question, determine you the processor model number and look up (plug) in site Intels. You should see other features of the type of memory to use (if DDR3L or DDR3) for a good game.

    Update:

    Here's how to run diagnostics: simply click the circled option shown after you type memory in the search box.

    Assuming you have I7-4700MQ, this will be the result in the Intel Web site:

    From there, the answer to your question is NO, you cannot use DDR3. You can use only the DDR3L 1333 or 1600 Dual channel No. ECC memory support.

    I recently bought the laptop Y510p and updated to 8.1 windows

    Since the upgrade, I'm telling gel, which could last 10seconds or 10 minutes.

    Any time I restart the computer, it crashes, and the only way to kill him is to press the button works / stop.

    Checked the eventviewer and I found the following disclaimer appearing every minute:

    After much research, I came to the conclusion that the ExpressCache is the cause.

    at the time wherever I've uninstalled it, issues disappeared.

    System will reboot without any problems, it will not be freez.

    Checked the following article:

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=HT074404

    Tried to re - install ExpressCache but the problem started to presist immediately, constant freezing and the message above in Event Viewer.

    Everyone knows the same problem? If you did, did you mange to solve?

    Obviously, I'm happy at this stage that frost has disappeared, but at the same time, I really would like to have full use of the system and would like to get it resolved.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hello.

    Talked with Support and unfortunately, this seems to be a matter of HW.

    Given that I've owned only the laptop for less than 31 days I received a full refund/replacement code.

    I would say that anyone having the same problem, contact technical support and advises because that is the question to support him rather than S/F.

    Kind regards
