• Driver needed XP for Ati Radeon HD 4250 (Thinkpad Edge 14 - model 019923u)

  Hello, I have downgraded from Windows 7 to Xp and I have trouble finding the driver for the video card.

  The laptop is a Thinkpad Edge 14 - model 019923u.

  Does anyone know the correct driver for this model?

  Thank you

  Try DRIVERMAX. I had a PC that had no XP drivers. This program found and installed the drivers in XP and had it work. What it does is find a driver for this type of Board/CPU/GPU/webcam/USB card or sound.

  Here are the directions out of my head that I remember best:

  • 1 when you load first it (after it index and askes register you), place the mouse on driver downloads and information, click on start the drivermax agent.
  • 2 loading the agent to ensure that its on the 2nd tab updated. If the (part your will install) shows here then select it and then click Download. Click on the 2nd show updates for only selected updates option.
  • 3 now it will go to the site and show you the pilot/s available. I always choose the driver top list. Click the link to download next to her. Click on continue free user. Make sure that you opened with drivermax and not save on the pc.
  • 4 it will then download and let you know when it is ready to be installed. Another thing if the driver (for what your need) does not appear here, then click on the identity of unknown material below start the agent on-screen main drivermax. Then do the same to download and install it.

  There are also clips Youtube how to use DRIVERMAX. See you soon! Hope this works for you.

• Size of hard drive bay for Thinkpad Edge E430? and vs SATA 300 600

  I'm looking to get a bigger hard drive for my Thinkpad Edge E430, and I have two questions.

  The current drive is a Toshiba MK5061GSY - SATA 300. This is 0.4 inches high. I'm looking at a WD Green WD20NPVX - SATA 600. It is high 0.6inches.

  1. What size is the HARD drive Bay? Fits in a drive that is 0.6 inches in height?
  2. A disk SATA 600 is backward compatible with SATA-300 port?

  Thank you.

  Ivy Bridge CPU in the E430 supports SATAIII (6 Gb/s) for the main hard drive and the optical drive Bay.

  The height of the E430 hard drive Bay suitable for 7 and 9.5 mm (do not know what this amounts to in inches).

• SimpleTap for thinkpad edge e530

  I just got my Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E530 and downloaded single tap. It does not work when I touch the screen with my fingers. I did some research online and realized that some computers do not have a touch screen. does anyone know if my computer has a touch screen and if so how to solve the simpletap so I was touch my screen with my fingers and make work? Thank you!

  Welcome to the community!

  I believe that the portable only in several Lenovo product lines that have multi touch (pen + finger) screens are Tablet PCs, like the X230T and some of the IdeaPads. If I'm wrong, I'm sure an expert Lenovo is soon be along to correct me, but at this point, I'd say you not 'touch' ability on your edge.

  HTH to clarify the bit.

• ThinkPad Edge E531 cannot boot from CD

  Hello

  just got my new Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E531.

  At the moment I'm not able to boot from the CD, it will always start the preinstalled Windows 8.

  I tried the F12 method to select a boot device different at startup where I can see the DVD RAM drive installed and select it, but no effect that he immediately returned to the selection screen.

  I played with the various BIOS affecting disabling secure boot option and change the boot order so that the DVD drive is the first. Then the system will look for the CD (you can hear it when you start spinning upwards), but will start in Windows 8 right afterwards.

  I checked with different bootable CD as well as DVD but still the same effects.

  What Miss me? All other BIOS or Windows 8 settings I need to change for it.

  I have other laptops Lenovo run like the X 230, the T520 or an old T61 where boot from CD never seems to be a problem.

  As the DVD drive works properly in Windows 8, I guess it works in general and should not be destroyed.

  Any help is very appreciated!

  Thanks in advance.

  See you soon...

  Hello and welcome,

  Have you tried also to change the startup mode of UEFI to legacy?

• ThinkPad Edge E330 WiFi turn off

  Hello everyone

  I have Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E330. I run on Ubuntu. Laptop was connected to the Wifi thw and was on the sector without battery. When I put the battery unplugged AC and portable opend my wifi stoped working. It is said: Wifi is disabled by the hardware switch. The problem is that this model does not have any material pass over her body. I tried a lot of things:

  -Load default in BIOS

  -Reinstall Ubuntu completely

  -Search in ubuntu forums

  Thank you for the help

  Hello elFilipko,

  exactly the same thing happened to me today and it's how I managed to fix it:

  1. I downloaded four Windows drivers as described here (tthere first of all one of the links is not active more so I downloaded this driver in its current version of support.lenovo.com - Lenovo Power Management Driver for Windows 8).

  2. I installed all the drivers on my Windows 8 (I have dual boot - Win 8 and Ubuntu).

  3. after restarting the computer and reboot back to Windows, I pressed F9 to enter parameters related to a Wi - Fi (you may have to press Fn + F9, depending on your settings). After pressing this button, a small window with the parameters related to a Wi - Fi should appear in the middle of the screen (as far as I know, this special window appears only with the version of Windows 7 these drivers, so it is necessary to uninstall and reinstall versions of Windows 8 drivers in my case). In this little window, I disabled the plane and WiFi mode on.

  4. after step 3, it seems that nothing has changed, but just after the restart of Ubuntu, the Wi - Fi was on and working.

  I think a similar solution might work in your case also, just install Win 7 or 8 Win and try it.

  Best regards.

• 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

  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.

• ThinkPad Edge not charging WITHOUT REASON APPARENTE

  Hello! I have a ThinkPad Edge 15. He had a problem loading the day I bought it. The people I bought it returned to IBM/Lenovo that apparently tight area where the charge lead goes to the PC? (I'm obviously not PC literate, sorry!)

  That has NOT fixed the problem, so when I got my laptop back, I called LEnovo, they sent me a new battery (even though I told them the "Power Manager", said the battery was in good condition) which did nothing. Then they sent me a new charge lead, once again - nada. They sent me a box to return the laptop to them. As I find how to put the laptop in the box, I looked more @ my PC and this is; shone the light that tells you if he is in charge! I never returned - it was last August.

  Last night. I looked @ the loading icon; 15%, no charging current!" Oops! Oh dear, not again! I went to the power manager, everything is fine. All my connections, same verified. Darn it all. I have a business. that is 90% SEARCH! MY PC DIED on me. I called Lenovo, they said - send it us.

  I still had the box since last summer, then he is out. I left the laptop plugged in my thoughts only, something might happen like last summer! HA! This morning I find how to pack, I watch over @ cell phone & guess WHAT! He has been in charge, the light was on. I lit and has right on this Forum to ask questions of you wise and knowledgeable people!

  First: I did what I thought, it was a decent amount of research before buying this laptop Lenovo. (I thought I was buying a ThinkPad Edge E520 - but that's another story) I really thought that "Lenovo" products have a good reputation. Yet, when on this Forum, I read a lot of posts on the problems of charging with the Edge series. What is everything? I buy another computer soon, but is reluctant to even look @ a Lenovo. If I had a case opened last night, I would have been freaked out! This is not acceptable! Lenovo has a good rep, or not?

  Second: What happens after my warranty expires in five months and it is ALWAYS the case? Is this PC a lemon? I've had a few laptops, and I have NEVER had anything that gave me as much hassle as this! My friend as a 15 years old song VAIO, which must NEVER, not once seen any problems! It has Windows Vista, same! 15 YEARS, not a single bump on the road! I got this SEVEN month, and if you add up, it's more than once a month! ARRGGGHHHHH!

  Third: If someone can make a good argument for staying with Lenovo; I need to look @ your desktop all-in-one or small. I used to say 'battery' has been my need to #1 to a computer, but now I realize that the 'reliability' is my requirement #1!  Maybe, a PC will be fast, one will be reliable? Sounds like a plan to me!

  I apologize for the length, and for my "evacuation." I hope that I didn't say anything, I should not have? TYVM for me to be on this Forum. You guys ROCK!

  Hi eefacm,

  So whenever you're ready to put the computer in the box, it starts to load, it seems that it is really a physical connection problem.

  It looks as if there is a loose wire, something may have slipped out of place and could be postponed.

  I recommend that you go ahead and send in your unit, regardless of whether it begins to load before you place it in the box.

  There is none of course say until you send it and let the repair depot look at him.

• ThinkPad Edge 14 does not charge

  I have a new problem with my laptop (ThinkPad Edge 14; 0578A 25) where the battery is.

  I have not had a problem until recently, and I don't know what caused it.  Here are the changes that have occurred since the last time I know, he has been in charge properly.

  Before noticing not battery

  1. Update all drivers Lenovo and your software by "Lenovo - update and drivers" in the control panel
  2. Noticed the new 'battery Firmware Update' in the power manager which was not in the old version.
  3. Utility of BFU said that it is up to date

  After noticing the charging of the battery has not been

  1. Uninstalled Power Manager and driver Power Manager, reset the management power and rebooted the computer
  2. Still not charging the battery, so I downloaded the wrapper battery to update the firmware on the Lenovo site and ran it (says firmware is up to date as well)
  3. Reinstalled Power Manager and driver Power Manager
  4. A ran a battery meter reset, but he would not be executed (battery was not load to full capacity, so my problem again)

  I don't know what else to try or where to go from here.  Is there anything I can try, maybe a way to reload the firmware to try to reset.  I don't want to have to buy a new battery when it was working fine until I used a Lenovo utility that obviously broke something.

  I HAVE THE SOLUTION!

  I turned off my antennas to my resources and find the solution.

  Appearantly, when everything, updated the driver loaded before Microsoft update is not compatible with the new updates.  So, here's what you do to remedy this:

  1. Turning off the computer completely (Shut Down, no standby or Hibernate
  2. Remove the levels, leaving only the AC adapter for power.
  3. Starting in "safe" mode
  4. Open Device Manager and expand the section of the battery.
  5. Remove all the drivers except the power adapter (right click and click on uninstall)
  6. Shut down the computer.
  7. Reinstall the battery, leaving the power adapter plugged as well upward.
  8. Turning on the computer as usual.

  Marvel at the fact that the battery is in charge now.

• Headphone jack on the ThinkPad Edge works not properly with Lenovo 57Y4488 headphones

  Bought 57Y4488 which are earphones thinkPad.

  When it is plugged into a socket of headset ThinkPad Edge that the microphone does not work.

  Works very well if connected to a ThinkPad SL410.

  Tried with two different sets of ThinkPad earphones and two of the various ThinkPad Edge laptops. Unfortunately, I bought my headphones over a month so there cannot send their return.

  I was able to make them work if I plug it into a logitech usb connector.

  I don't know if the problem is the conector on the earphones or headphones on the ThinkPad Edge connector.

  Thanks for your reply.

  Just worked on it. It's a windows 7 setting. By default it does not seem to support taking combo until its installation in windows through advanced audio setting.
