  Hello!

  I think that the BIOS was not correctly because your computer laptop doesn't start up again.
  In this case, you can make t a lot of.

  Try this: remove the battery and the AC adapter, wait up to 1 hour and then connect the battery and AC adapter. Try it again and hope it works.

  If this does not work, you should contact a local ASP. In the worst cases, the motherboard must be exchanged :(

• Lenovo 3000 N500 died (signs of life)

  Hello

  I have a Lenovo 3000 N500.

  The days before the accident, I had a few blue screens. Due to some forum entries, blue screens messages seems to be related to a hardware error (RAM).

  After a blue screen, I couldn't reboot the system. The startup Lenovo screen showed all the time. Then I removed the battery. Since then, the laptop is quite dead. There is absolutely no sign of life: no light shines, no response after pressing the button there.

  Fortunately, I was able to get the laptop hard drive to back up my data.

  I tried to exchange the RAM, but without success.

  You have any other ideas I cound trying to save my laptop?

  Kind regards

  Bene

  you have a serious problem with hard drive, ram, motherboard or graphics card.

  you have a warranty? If so, I suggest you to contact lenovo support line and ship your laptop.

  also, how long have you used the computer?

• How Flash the BIOS on Aspire S3-391 when no present OS?

  I have a new Acer Aspire Ultrabook S3-391-6862.  I want to update the BIOS on the unit, but has difficulty because there is no OS on the Ultrabook again (it came with Win8 on it but I wiped the HARD drive to put Win7 on it).  I downloaded the latest BIOS (BIOS_Acer_2.17_A_A.zip) and unpacked.  It contains 2 files:
  (1) HB2V217.exe (size = 4, 664, 003 bytes)
  (2) Readme.txt (this simply says "Windows flash: Please click on 'HB2V217.exe' to update the bios").

  I then added this "HB2V217.exe" (4 664 003 bytes) the Win7 DVD (I did a DVD ISO, then adds the "HB2V217.exe" of the ISO file, then burned a new DVD of Win7 from this new ISO standard).
  The new DVD of Win7 boots fine, date at which I hit 'SHIFT - F10' to a command prompt, navigate to the "HB2V217.exe" file and run it, date at which it gives me a message error "subsystem required to support the image is not present.

  Other misc notes:
  -If I look inside the "HB2V217.exe" (4 664 003 bytes) with 7Zip, it contains 4 files:
  (1) HB2V217.exe (size = 4564828, but it has the same name, as it is the container for HB2V217.exe 4 664 003 bytes).
  (2) PopMsg.exe
  (3) wFlash.bat
  (4) wFlash.exe

  Obvious questions:
  -Should I copy the 4 files for installing Win7 disc rather than their container?
  -Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

  Thank you

  Thank you for your help Jean Philippe, although I have now solved the problem, though in a different way.
  To answer your question though, the latest version of BIOS was 2.09.

  My solution was tedious but I downloaded "WinPE", built a flash drive bootable with it, the file copied BIOS "HB2V217.exe" (version 4 664 003 bytes) in the flash drive, booted from the flash player, sailed to "HB2V217.exe" and run it, date on which she flashed BIOS 2.17 new to the Ultrabook and rebooted, and success.

  For anyone who has the same problem, it was my convoluted solution (in a manner of long-term assuming that those who read it are not familiar with some aspects of computers).
  -on another computer, I did the following:
  (1) - download Windows ADK ("adksetup.exe"), which is free (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652).
  2-) plugged a USB key (something more bigger than 200 MB is fine).
  (3) - open windows explore and noted the drive letter of the USB Flash drive, I just plugged.
  (4) - ran the "adksetup.exe" and chose only "Windows PE" of all it's features (I forget if I run 'adksetup.exe' once or twice, but have downloaded more than 3 GB of files in total.
  (5) ' adksetup.exe' run and got a box of command prompt.  I typed in this box (but without the quotation marks):
  (6) "copype x 86 C:\WinPE_x86" (I chose 32 bit (x 86) version, although it may either have worked). "
  7-) after he finished I typed ' MakeWinPEMedia/UFD C:\WinPE_x86 E:.
  (8-) where "E:" is the letter of your Flash drive you noted in step 3.
  -NOTE that it will erase and format your USB Flash drive, so be sure you don't have any data you want to keep on it and make sure that you have given the CORRECT DRIVE LETTER or YOU WILL FORMAT AND LOSE DATA ON a DRIVE OTHER!
  9-) copied the "HB2V217.exe" file for BIOS I unzipped from the zip file, I had downloaded from Acer, for the flash to the root drive.
  10-) moved the to the Ultrabook of Acer and started the Ultrabook USB Flash drive (after setting it's BIOS to boot from the USB ports).
  (11) - target navigation on drive "C:" of the Ultrabook in this is the command line by typing:
  (12)-"c:".
  (13)-"HB2V217.exe".
  (14): the Ultrabook of Acer seems to restart twice because it flashes the BIOS and gives you a course.
  15-) after it's all done, restart the Ultrabook and enter the BIOS to check the version of your BIOS is now new and correct.

  There is probably an easier way to make a bootable stick with Windows on it, but nothing I tried seemed to work, so I was stuck with this complicated scheme.

  It would have been nicer if Acer had provided their BIOS image independent bootable OS as do so many other manufacturers, so you could simply image/burn the image to a floppy or CD/DVD and then Flash bootable BIOS boot media.

  In any case, thanks for your help, and maybe it helps others as well.

• Increase the RAM in a Lenovo 3000 N500 - 3DG

  Hello.  I already bought a new laptop Lenovo 3000 N500 - 3DG, which has this memory RAM: 2 x 1 GB / max.4GB 667 MHz PC2 - 5300 DDR2 SDRAM SODIMM. I'm not an expert on computers and I wonder if someone could help me:

  (1) I want to increase my RAM. Than me, to add one or two GB would you recommend?

  (2) what brand (and specific model) of RAM should be better for this laptop?

  (3) how can I install on my computer? Could someone who did her before you explain to me how to do step by step (and if it was possible with graphics, prints to the fate or images).

  Thanks for your help and excuse my not correct English.

  Hola JotaEfe,
  (1) Windows 32 bit: it makes no sense to have more than 3 gigabytes of RAM

  (2) I added 2 G Kingston 800 Mhz PC2 - 6000 without problem (1 module) and removed 1 factory module 1 Giga of RAM.
  I wonder if changing the RAM at 800 Mhz RAM would run at 800 MHZ...

  (3) the operating instructions is in the manual (a very good indeed!)

  Good luck!

• I need help to Flash the bios. I have an Aspire 5810TZ. I start and it just says: "acer".

  I need help to Flash the bios. I have an Aspire 5810TZ. I start and he just says "acer" and goes no further. I went to the download page for BIOS on us.acer.com and it has a zip file with 5 files:
  JM4151135.exe
  IN FLORIDA...
  GPC_V135.bin
  Readme.txt
  FLASH. BAT
  What should I do? I tried to copy the files on a USB key and turn on/off with Fn + ESC key. After the release the power button and pressed Fn - Esc another screen appears after 30 seconds. I gave up and gave her 30 minutes but it does nothing. I read another person that should be flashing power button online. I have to rename one of the files. Help, please!

  Aspire 5810TZ menu of frozen startup.

  I finally understand it.

  I couldn't start a back b/c drive, it me did not start anything.

  I followed this chain of logic:

  -Downloaded the bios (2.35 is the one that worked for me)
  -Find the exe file in the winflash file.
  -Extract the files in archive exe using the 7-Zip program
  -Find the .fd file and rename it to JM41X64. FD (I read in a forum was unique in my laptop)
  -Copied JM41X64. FD and FLASH it is. EXE on a USB
  -A the battery and the hard drive out.
  -With its trendy diet I supported Fn + Esc and that you press the power button once while ensuring that the Fn + Esc has been always held down.
  -J' waited 6 seconds and release the Fn + Esc and seen the flashing flash player
  -After about 10 minutes, restarted the machine and the bios as like new.

  Later, I found that there was a hard drive problem.

  I want you guys should help more. All I needed was the name of the JM41X64 file. FD and you don't know how many hours I put into trying to find how simpy bios flash. It is not that difficult for someone with a b.s. in computer science to learn how. Couldn't we a m.s. back b/c the bios drive was messed up. F12 didn't work.

• Can I use my Lenovo 3000 N500 without a battery using only the AC adapter?

  Hi just ask if I can use my Lenovo 3000 N500 without the battery using only the AC adapter on? Because I use it almost 24 hours. Thank you...

  Hello leo_joel,

  Yes, you can use it without battery.

  But I would recommend that it is glued to, cause the powermanager will load automatically for the health of the battery.

  Also it s quiet possible, that your won´t system running at full capacity, if the battery is glued on.

• Why I can't install windows XP on my lenovo 3000 N500 4233-53U?

  Hi everyone I need help, why I can't install windows XP on my lenovo 3000 N500 4233-53U? When I boot on win XP and after he load some files it still stops & it become blue screen? Thank you...

  Hello, has the same task these day´s. This is my solution.

  1. create a custom Win - CD installation with nLite, www.nliteos.com and
  include Win Service Pack 3
  2. change the Bios setting from AHCI to IDE harddisk
  (Native WinXp doesn´t truly support AHCI Mode)
  3. when the installation of XP is complete, download and install the "Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver for Windows XP, Vista (32 bit) - ThinkPad" http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70477
  Follow the instructions "If you don't have a floppy drive...". »

  If this does not work with the step 1 and 2 and that you still have a blue screen during the installation, including the drivers of your installation of nLite CD

  Currently, there are problems with the download of the drivers on the Lenovo site...... so if you can not download the driver package... send me a message I´ll send you it by e-mail.

  Best regards
