Problem installing Windows 7 on Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 665D817

Hello

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 665D817 without an operating system and be able to install Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (msdnaa version). I actually had the Thinkpad even before and managed to install Windows 7 withouth any problems.

After starting from the USB stick during installation without hard drive is located. To this end, I insert a second usb key with drivers for AMD AHCI Controller Device Driver for Windows 7 and select the directory of win7 64 bit. A driver to install is offered, but after installing it, it seems as if nothing happened. No disk is detected, and I can't continue the installation.

thx for the help

(by the way, the proposed here spell check does not recognize "Lenovo" - * lol *)

I saw this happen occasionally during installation via the USB port. In my experience, it is when a USB 3.0 or eSATA/USB combo port is present. It does not occur if start you it from a Windows existing, nor happens during the installation of optical media.

There is something that includes ImageX that you can use to install Windows, but that gets a little complicated.

  • Blue screen when you try to install Windows XP on Intel ThinkPad Edge 520

    Hello

    I have a ThinkPad Edge 520 type 1143-B5G with a clean disk and I need to install Windows XP on it, for reasons of inheritance. I read on the pilot of the technology Intel Rapid store being necessary, but this seems not to apply to the 520, only to 220 and 420. The recommended settings are not available on the 520 (nor is the driver itself), and the driver is listed by n/a for the 520 in the list of drivers of Lenovo. But, I always get a BSOD error just as Windows is starting from the installation DVD, after the DVD instructed all pilots, he can think about.

    Anyone know how to fix this?

    Would BTW - be possible to install XP in a separate partition, main alongside Windows 7, on a drive that already has Windows 7 on it? Or a clean disk is needed for this?

    Kind regards

    / EvA

    Hello and welcome,

    What settings are you looking for?  It seems that there is a problem with the mode of operation of HD.  The E520 BIOS has an option to change the SATA compatibility instead of AHCI mode?  You will not be able to install a version of "Vanilla" of XP without adding the correct AHCI driver or compatibility mode.

    What version of BIOS do you have?  I see this rather cryptic reference in the BIOS 1.20:

    "[Fixes problem] problem reading/writing data to the SATA compatibility mode."

    It is possible to dual-boot XP and 7, but the best way to do is to install XP first and then let the 7 Installer put in place the configuration dual-boot.  You would still have the problem of compatibility (IDE) vs AHCI mode.

    Ah, lookinng a little further, there is a driver AHCI for XP in Lenovo driver matrix.  The readme file includes instructions on installation.

  • Battery Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 13 (0217) problem

    Hello guys,.

    Because I couldn't find a solution for my problem, I decided to write here, hoping that someone (by a team from Lenovo or users) have the same problem and therefore can help me.

    I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 model (version 0217). (I bought from a friend, because he didn't deliver more when I decided to buy it.)

    I have problems with my battery. The design of this capacity is 62.12 Wh, I used it wisely, so it was not always charged to 100%. I always unload down around 5-7% and then plug the power adapter. (See image).

    My first problem is that during the last 3 months, the capacity is down to 45,88 Wh and I can't really understand why. This can be a generic problem with the battery?

    My second problem is - for which I found another topic here, but it did not help me - that when I charge the battery, stops at 99% of load, showing "3 minutes is remaining" and if I disconnect and reconnect the adapter, it stops like 99% saying have completely loaded. In the battery maintenance, I changed the settings to "always fully charge' Custom, but still, it won't charge the battery fully.

    My third problem is that I have updated the BIOS of my laptop a few days ago, and when I try to search for an update of the firmware battery or when I do a battery meter reset, the system shuts down suddenly without any warning or something else.

    I would be really grateful if someone could help me with this, I like really my laptop but it really bothers me...

    Thanks in advance.

    (1) so that you must have used it a bit and then, under the charge cycle is at 234.

    (2) don't know, but sometimes my battery the fact.

    (3) download HWinfo32 and check your system temp, and what temperature your CPU is.

  • Problem installing Windows XP Mode in 7 Winjdows

    I have a problem installing Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 Pro 64 running on a Dell Latitude E6510 laptop with an i5 processor and 8 GB of ram.  This machine supports hardware virtualization, and it is enabled in the BIOS.

    Before downloading software in XP Mode, the MS download required Windows validation Web site.  Downloaded and reported validation validation and a successful installation.  Then I downloaded Windows XP Mode (WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe, 481 052 KB) installation package and the package of Windows Virtual PC (Windows6 1 - KB958559 - x 64 - RefreshPkg.msu, 16 692-Ko).  Then, I installed Windows XP Mode; the installation ran without any problems apparent and reported success.
    According to the docs of download site, the next step is to: "... click on the Windows 7 start button , and then select all programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin the installation."
    My problem is Windows Virtual PC does not appear anywhere in the selection of all programs list - believe me, I looked.  There is, however, a new directory called
    c:\ProgramFiles\Windows XP Mode\
    but it contains no exe file.  It contains a file of 1.2 GB called Windows XP Mode base.vhd - but it is not clear what to do with it.  There is also a tutorial subdirectory.
    I tried to reinstall Windows XP Mode (without uninstalling first) but I just get a warning message that the program is already installed.  Windows XP Mode appears on the list "Uninstall or change a program" in the module programs and features in Control Panel.
    I tried running (Windows6. 1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu(Windows6.1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu, goal that throws error 0x8007000d, "The data is invalid."
    If at this point, my question is simple, "what to try next?
    Thanks in advance.

    The right way to install Windows XP Mode, you must first install Windows Virtual PC, and then install Windows XP Mode.

    You must install both files:

    1 Windows6. 1 - KB958559 - x 64 or x 86 architecture that you run

    Restart the system, and then install:

    2 WindowsXPMode_en-we

    ------------

    Uninstall Windows XP Mode:

    Click Start, type: programs and features

    Press enter on your keyboard

    Scroll down

    Select Windows XP Mode

    Click Change/uninstall in the command bar

    Uninstall Windows XP Mode

    -----------------

    Restart your computer

    Proceed with the installation of Windows XP Mode in the right order.

    --------------

    If it does not always show upward:

    Click Start, type: enable or disable windows features

    Scroll down

    Make sure that Windows Virtual PC is checked

    Click OK

    Reboot if prompted

  • Cannot get Plantronics bluetooth headset appears as reading or a recorder in Panel - &#62; sound in Windows 7 with Lenovo ThinkPad

    I installed a Plantronics Voyager legend UC bluetooth headset to my work provided Lenovo ThinkPad laptop computer running Windows 7. The helmet looks like a device in the Panel--> devices and printers. However, it does not show as a device in the control--> tabs sound playback Panel or registration.  I need the headset to the playback device for my work-VoIP phone.

    I tried to remove the helmet and reinstall, but I can't delete it in the Panel--> devices and printers. When I locate and right click, remove or uninstall is not an option. I went to the control panel--> Manager--> audio video devices and game controllers, which are there and uninstalled. I then unplugged the connector of the headset, and the headset powered off and rebooted. I then plugged the connector UBS back in and turned the headset. The PC began to reinstall the drivers, but the headphones still did not appear in the sound tabs.

    I have been all over the internet trying to find a solution to this problem and so far have not been successful. I spent hours on this and it shouldn't be so hard, but it turns out be. I appreciate any help you can provide.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for your reply Mann. Here's the answer to your questons.

    1. Were you able to use this helmet earlier on this computer? Answer: Yes, it didn't work and appeared in the reading tabs and the recording of sounds. However, I accidentally deleted it--> sound when I was trying to troubleshoot why I couldn't hear the narration in the course of eLearing played on our intranet via the headphones. I only meant to change the settings so that I could make the speaker/HP the default device. BIG MISTAKE because now I can't get it to reinstall and appear in the tabs of playback and recording.
    2. Have you checked to connect the headset to any other computer, it works on other computers? Answer: The only other computer I have is an Apple MacBook Pro. I plugged the USB connector to the PC and seem to work although I can't do a one-to-one comparison.
    3. You said that Windows has started to install drivers automatically after connecting the headset and the computer restarted after the removal of noise, the video controller and game, was the driver installed successfully? Answer: Yes, but it just does not appear not liked as an option in the tabs of playback or recording.
    4. Other audio devices work fine on this computer? The only other device is the computer speakers and they work fine.

    Regarding method 1. I had already installed and run the file MicrosoftFixit.Devices.exe that you provided even if I ran again and this has not fixed the problem.

    With respect to method 2. I checked and show disabled devices is checked. The only other devices in playback and recording are speakers/HP and Realtek HD Audio Output 2.

    UPDATE! I removed the USB of the headphone connector and plugged into the MAC, and then removed the Mac and plugged into the PC, that is! The helmet now presents itself as an option in the tabs of the reading and recording. Yes! I was able to select it and set as device by default, tested the VoIP phone and it works all! Phew! I was about to give up on the VoIP phone. Thank you.

    I'm unable to install the Windows 7 SP1 on my laptop.  I am running Win 7 64 bit and tried to install the 64-bit SP1 via the feature updates automatic first, then with the SP1 download manually (Windows6. 1 - KB976932 - X 64 .exe).   The progresses to install SP1 to the point where it shuts down the system and it is charging but when I log in I get the dialog Setup SP1 reporting "the Installation was not successful".  By clicking on the link error display shows DS_S_SUCCESS (0x0).

    (I followed the steps of troubleshooting 1) by using the Troubleshoot Utility "Difficulty of problems with Windows Update" and 2) installed tool Rediness of updating system, but the installation of SP1 still fails with the same error.

    I have successfully applied the SP1 on a different system.  No idea why I have problems with my laptop.

    Any ideas?

    C thx.

    Have you checked your hard drive to find errors? Another obscure, you might try is to disable User Account Control temporarily.

    Its possible, you need to perform an update of the BIOS if one is available for your ThinkPad T60p. Also, check the updated chipset drivers.

    Furthermore, disconnect any non-essential device, you may have attached to the system.

    Its possible the SP1 download may be corrupted, I would like to download another copy and try again.

    Hello

    I decided it was time to upgrade to windows 7 xp 32. I'm on an IBM Thinkcentre. I did a lot of research but cannot circumvent this problem.
    When I insert the cd when the computer runs I get an error message saying that:

    "This installation disc is not compatible with your version of windows. To upgrade, you need the correct installation disc. For more information, see your computer system information. To install a new copy of Windows, restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc, and then select custom (advanced option). »

    I know that it is common, so when I restart the computer and start the disc I meet another problem. It starts to boot from the disk and say for windows to load as soon as the loading reaches the end of the bar of the computer just stops and I can't do anything. When you start the computer again then turns off after a few seconds.
