New to me thinkpad does nothing

As the title says I have a thinkpad at home. It features a wiped drive that someone tried to fix it (wouldn't boot xp past loading screen). I press the power button and it lights. I press the button Lenovo and it starts to do something and then closes. I treated and built a few computers but have to say that I am confused. A wipe should allow it to boot to the bios and then if a disc is in it should just install.

This isn't a computer for me, I have two laptops already but a little be good for programming and class notes. I want to fix it anyway. Pointers? I tried to pull the drive and reformatting incase it was wrong the first time, but no go. I checked all the screws incase some sensor has been triggered by the screws is not (don't know if something like that is in it). I want 7 is installed, as a student, I have access to copies.

Thank you all,
John

I actually had now, not real sure what happened but the computer works now. I think it was that the battery was no two reversed tabs. Didn't know that makes the difference.

    Theres been other people having this problem too...

    Yes, for example, that this person- https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1078226 -, but they did not post cost around if any suggestion made a difference, I appreciate your following upward.

    Here are two other things to check:

    (1) connection settings - have they been customized?

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced

    Click the mini network, and then click the settings button

    The default value of 'Use system proxy settings' should follow your 'LAN' setting, as well as IE, but you can also try 'No proxy' to see if that makes a difference.

    (2) extensions - test Firefox to turn off Safe Mode

    Firefox Safe mode is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

    Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

    Any improvement?

  • Now CTRL when you click on a link is not open it in a new tab; does nothing

    When I try to open a link in a new tab holding the key CTRL key while clicking on it does nothing. Does not open. Tried to reboot in safe mode with disabled modules and had no joy.
    Also don't get no menu when using the right click, also tried in safe mode, also nothing.

    Click to open a link in a new tab.

  • By selecting 'Open in a new tab' right-click menu does nothing

    I just updated to firefox 24 on OXS. The right click menu now is meaningless.

    When I right click on a web link, and select 'Open in new tab', nothing happens. No tab opens.

    However, I see now countless options irrelevant for that link, such as 'copy the audio location', 'copy the location of the image', 'play', 'pause', etc., when the article I have clicking on is not an image, audio, video or any other type of media. The content of the right click menu is now longer than my entire screen, completely out of place for the link I'm clicking on and the only option that is relevant does nothing.

    How can I fix?

    I had the same problem. I found that disable Firebug in my Extensions menu solved the problem, so when I right click it appears the menu of standard options rather than the new options 100 or so which do not apply.

    If you have installed too much Firebug, you might want to give this a shot. I have not upgraded my Firebug in no time so it might be a problem with running an older version of it.

    Hope that helps

  • How can we change the RAID of FAST Safe on a new series of Thunderbolt 2 LaCie 2big. I have a Lacie pin tool in the box, but it does nothing next to selected options and lights. Thank you.

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro and a new crush LaCie 2big 2 series of RAID hard drive to use for Time Machine backup.

  • First Elements 9 does nothing after loading; don't load new project - please help!

    Hoping someone here can help...

    From the outset, I must admit that I'm not the best to search the Internet to find answers to complex computer problems (or at least complicated for me). I did my best to try to find help or information to the problem I'm having, but ended up only more confused and frustrated.

    I was able to run to first Elements 9 on my old PC (Windows 7 - home page) for a while with no problems. However, just last week I did splurge on a PC brand new (Windows 10) and can't get Premiere Elements to function properly at all.

    My problem:

    Premiere Elements will be charge. The program opens. He will ask me to name my new project, I do it, and then it does nothing. It does not load a project timeline/layout / anything. It is just an open window and empty. All menu options for what that this either in the upper part are all grayed out - apart from the creation of a new project, open a project and help options. Create a new project does nothing - as I have already said. I have no plans to open it, I find myself with options here. If I try to open one that I named in my attempts to get the program working, I get a notice of a serious error causing elements that need to close. I click 'ok' (as my only option) and get a second error message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library - Runtime Error! First Elements - this application has requested enforcement in an unusual way. For more information, contact support.

    I installed both disks I have for Premiere Elements.

    I have uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled, reinstalled...

    I downloaded this file/additional patch for Elements 9.

    I made the diagnosis and he said that I could run in Windows 7, but there is nothing (granted, once again, that there is another computer with Windows 10).

    I have uploaded/updated QuickTime.

    I've updated Windows, drivers, etc..

    I created a second user profile on the computer as an admin (which I saw that someone had suggested something like this, to have worked for a problem that is unique) n ' did not help. Same problems.

    I'm about to give it all up this program together and buy something else...

    I'm not surprisingly be notified when it comes to computers, so I hope someone can explain a solution for me in an easy to understand way... If the problem is too complicated for me hard, once again, I can finish just call, she leaves and get something else. Really, I prefer not to have to do this, but...

    I hope someone here can help me.

    Thank you very much in advance if someone is able to offer information, suggestions, ideas, or help! I would very much because I am completely at a loss now...

    Version 9 does not work on Windows 10.

    You can watch when buying version 14.

  • Menu assistance does nothing, anywhere URLs in emails

    Thunderbird is failed URL in the Firefox browser, and the Help menu does nothing. Probably, it is the same problem. Very good mail downloads, Firefox works fine. Firefox is 42.0 Tbird is 38.3.0 and it is a new operating system Windows 10.

    Hi, I could operate as follows:

    1 closed Thunderbird and Firefox. Went to the Windows 10 start - > settings-> system-> Default apps and changed the web browser by default for Microsoft Edge.

    2. restart Windows. Started with Thunderbird and I tried the help-> contents of aid that has worked, bringing Microsoft Edge with the help of Thunderbird page. Also clicked on a link in an email and he worked leading to the top of page links in a new tab in the browser of Microsoft Edge.

    3 closed Thunderbird and Microsoft Edge. Went to Windows 10 start - > settings-> system-> Default apps and changed the web browser by default in Firefox.

    4 restarted Windows. Thunderbird has started and the help and links in messages worked when you click on get a new tab in Firefox, as expected.

    So I guess that the problem is solved.

  • The download arrow button down is visible, but does nothing!

The button still animates when click on it, but does nothing...
    Someone knows why this month that's happened?

    Hi FInku, please try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    Thank you

    Test in a new user quickly will tell you if the problem is system-wide or if your user folder that contains the problem.

    CREATE A NEW USER

    Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.

    Switch to the new user by logging incoming/outgoing or use the fast user switching.

    You can ignore the signature with your Apple ID, unless you want to test iCloud

    By default only the applications Apple will be in the dock in the new user. Go to Applications to open other apps, that you can test.

    You still see the issue?

    If Yes, then the problem is with your core files.

    You can try running the updated Apple combo. Often, it will fix weird questions.

    Update of OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 Combo

    https://support.Apple.com/kb/DL1885

    If not, then the problem is in your user folder.

    Try to remove the com.apple.finder.plist in the user's Library/Preferences folder.

    Restart then check. You may reset some of your preferences after deleting this file.

  • Open in a new tab or window does not work. How can I fix?

    I just upgraded to 36.01. When I right click on a link in the menu of options is long and confusing. When I select open in a new tab or a new window, it does nothing. What can I do to reduce the list of options and how to fix him open a new tab or window option?

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

    Try a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.

    Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
    Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
    All of these programs have free versions.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.
