  • Access IBM and Fn + F5 button does not work in T41

    After reformatting, including the partition of the funds and the installation of winxp, my "Access IBM" and press "Fn + F5" for dialogue does not show.

    allows only without showing any dialog of ON, OFF.

    Hi haideruet,

    To make it work, you need power as Power Management & Power Manager, features Hokey and drivers Access IBM online user's Guide. Some of the old drivers must be run twice, their configurations get pulled to C:\Drivers... then make sure you run the installer from the documents mentioned too.

    Drivers are located here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-46258

    I hope this helps.

  • T43 - hangs on the splash screen

    Hi all

    I have a G 45-2668 Thinkpad T43 that simply no longer starts. This laptop was not started or loaded for a long time before I got to it. Warranty is exhausted just 1.5 months ago.

    Description:

    -By pressing the results of power on button to start the laptop. Start screen appears and nothing else happens.

    -No reaction if I press the "Access IBM" or F1 button at all. I can not enter in BIOS or any other reaction (no beeps, no error message, no num lock light switch).

    Turns hard disk, CD-ROM prepares.

    What I tried so far:

    -Remove battery and AC-cable, press the power button 10 times for a longer time. Then I plugged the AC cable and pushed F1 during the market. I sometimes start menu. But only rarely. And if I'm here, once again no reaction on the key pressing.

    -J' opened the laptop, if there is no visible problem. It does not exist. After the opening and closing, I could pass once the BIOS, but there was no reaction to pressing any key. So I could not reset the BIOS of some default state.

    -Portable computers will beep but if I remove the card memory.

    What can I do now?

    Please help me.

    Best regards

  • Manual for T43 (1871-FU1)

    I just bought a used T43 laptop and am looking for a manual for it. The "Access IBM" button not respond either online or off. I don't know whether I use it properly. I found online maintenance manuals, but no users of the manual. Any ideas on how I can get one?

  • Questions of partition T43 (1871) hidden

    I was given an old T43 (1871), on which I could install Windows 7 and, surprisingly, have almost everything works pretty well (even if there are two elements in the device manager that do not seem to be cooperating). Regardless, it works well (for an old machine Pentium-M with 2 GB of RAM).

    Here's my question:

    There is a hidden partition which, if I understand correctly, contains information of the recovery, to make the machine in the way it was when it came from the factory. As this machine comes with XP and I now have Win7, is it safe to erase and delete this partition? Or is there something in this partition that has something to do with the blue Access IBM button that seems to be the equivalent after pressing the DELETE key in a generic Windows PC? Just in case I am confused the issue, let me rephrase the question. Relying on the Access IBM button above the keyboard works correctly (to choose a different disk or enter the BIOS) if I remove the area of the hidden partition (assuming I want to restore the T43 in its delivered state of XP?

    If I have fubar was the question, please let me know and I'll try to clarify. Thank you very much.

    Welcome to the forum!

    It is perfectly safe to nuke the recovery partition you have no intention to run XP on this T43.

    Once the recovery partition is removed, the blue button will offer you start options and nothing else.

  • T43 will not move past the first screen

    My mother gave me this thinkpad because he had a virus (Windows shield Center) and he locked her out of her computer. She could always use Safe Mode, however. When I initially got tried to start, but he walls me an error message "missing hal.dll" and told me to reinstall windows, which I did not.

    I thought that this could be a fluke, but now the ThinkPad won't even go past the first screen that says "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue Access IBM button" without worrying if I press that key, or, the function keys.

    This is as far as I came. What are my next steps?

    This looks like a start of a failure of SouthBridge chips which is very common on these machines.

    Remove the keyboard (but keep that he attached), the palmrest and the wireless card.

    Turn on the machine, then * gently * press the big square under the slot wireless chip.

    If the machine starts normally whenever the square is pressed, a SouthBridge chip failure.

    Good luck.

  • ThinkVantage button start not working not?

    Hello

    Model - T400
    OS - Vista 32 bit.

    When I start my computer and tries to access the thinkvantage result page, I couldn't enter.
    I pressed the blue thinkvantage when the screen asked.
    but instead of entering the result screen, it goes into another menu.

    It seems three options... with a black background.  (which is different from the last time when I go to the page of result)

    Hmm - can someone help to solve my problem?
    all the solutions for helping me return to the rescue and recovery of back page?

    Thank you.

    No bother, I hope that your question will help others.

    If your system works well, and you have no reason to reinstall, you can consider using rescue and recovery or other options of third parties to create backups of your entire system something wicked should happen in the future. It would be also desirable to separate your important data backups.

  • T61 DVD/CD-RW drive is unable to read and hangs

    Hello everyone, I hope that people still visit this area of the forums!

    I put highlighted and bolded the symptoms and make them easier to find.

    I recently bought a T61 6457-C15 on eBay and were in the process of setting up and customizing to my tastes. When I got the laptop, it looked as if Windows had been restored to the original state of the factory, as well as some free software, so I proceeded under this assumption. First of all, I used Windows Update to download all the updates that he could find including IE8. I wanted to have a program running on my computer before anti-virus I used a browser to access the internet. I ran IE8 and went directly to the Microsoft Security Essentials Web site and downloaded the installer. At this point, I tried to remove the Norton Internet Security pre-installed and expired using the built-in uninstall, but it failed. A message box jumped in saying that I needed to put the Norton installation disc in the CD-ROM drive so that the uninstall program can find a file of Norton support. My computer did not come with all discs, but my mothe had bought Norton 2008, so I took the disc and put it in the drive. The training started shooting immediatelyand the uninstall program found the file he was looking for in a few seconds. File support directed me to the site of Norton to get their removal tool, which has removed Norton from my system in the short term. Afterwards, I ran Microsoft Security Essentials install program and obtained MSE running on my computer before anything else.

    Then I went on the Lenovo Web site and he had my automatic detection system. That took me to the support page for my system, when I went to the page «Downloads & drivers» I downloaded the connections to access and ThinkVantage Toolbox for Vista 32-bit (my OS is Vista Business 32-bit). I then used Lenovo System Update to get all the updates that are deemed necessary to Lenovo, including those for itself and the software and firmware components system. There were 35 or updates more suggest, and I trusted the software, so I started downloading all. I don't know, but I think that an update of the DVD/CD-RW drive was included in the list, but I don't remember if it's auxiliary software, drivers and firmware. After the Lenovo system update was convinced that she had all the necessary updates, I downloaded Revo Uninstaller and began to remove my computer from uneccassary and unwanted programs and cut the list of start-up. I did not touch any components Windows or ThinkVantage, and I searched each of the programs online, so I don't know I have to not delete or disable all drivers or file system or something to Lenovo. I removed mainly produced Apple and software doesn't work on my system, including an integrated camera driver (my system doesn't have a built-in camera) and third-party programs that were already missing files or otherwise unusable when I got my computer. Until now I had used a gigabit ethernet connection to download the software; I had not used the DVD/CD-RW drive with the exception of the one time wherever I mentioned earlier.

    Now that I have my system set up for my taste, including customization and power settings, I started to install my first program: Command & Conquer the first decade since a DVD-ROM. When I put the disc in the drive and closed, it took a few seconds for the drive to the start and once he did, he was constantly running at high speed and I could hear the drive back quickly in perpetual motion. After a few minutes menu finally appeared disk installation, so I clicked on the button install. I waited several minutes, but nothing happened, so I tried to view the contents of the disc by going to my computer > DVD/CD-RW drive (D, right, click on and select explore menu. ) When I did, the address of the Workstation window bar began to fill with a dark and said gray progress bar "loading (D", I think that with the name of the player or drive after him.). After he took several minutes to fully complete, nothing happened. I waited a few minutes to see if anything would change, (Nothing in fact), I clicked on the X button in the upper right of the window to close. A few minutes and clicks later, the Workstation window was labeled as (not), and the window itself has become dimmed. I started the Task Manager and tried to close the my computer window, but the entire Windows desktop disappeared with her, saying that he will try to restart. Even the Task Manager became inadmissible and quit after you close the workstation. After a few minutes of watching my background (and nothing else), I've ejected the disk, and Windows Desktop reappeared immediately and acted as if nothing had ever been wrong.

    I checked the Device Manager, but neither the DVD/CD-RW drive, nor any of the ATA controllers have been marked; in fact, they all said that they worked correctly with the drivers updated. I ran the diagnostics of the Toolbox ThinkVantage on the disk using a data CD, a CD and a DVD-ROM are different, but in each case, the drive failed the tests and a message jumps to the top box, saying that the discscould is not read because they have been removed or there is a hardware problem. I checked the discs that both before and after I took them out, and they were not scratched; also, all disks are made editor with a company of software or music. I restarted my computer, started the Rescue and Recovery and Ran PC-Doctor from here option. I ran the same drive read tests with the same results of failure. All the time the car was behaving in the same way he had when he did not first read a Disc. Then I removed and cleaned the drive both inside and outside with a can of compressed air. I also cleaned the ultrabay himself. Finally I tried to fix it with Microsoft Fix It, but when it is automatically ejected from the car and I put a drive, the disk was stuck in the drive and Windows frozen as before. I had to restart Windows two times (once with a BSOD) to take out the drive. When the disc has been removed the computer is back to its normal operation once more.

    Please help me, my DVD/CD-RW drive is a Matshi your UJDA775, my operating system is Windows Vista Business and model number of my T61 6457-C15. I tried all the troubleshooting patches and none have worked. I tried the update drivers and using diagnostic software and they have not worked. I tried to disable drag-to-disc burning and it did not work. I have treid remove and clean the drive and that did not solve my problem. I noticed that the driver for the controller "Intel(r) ICH8M-E/M SATA AHCI" is the only related driver that can be undone, so maybe that could fix. I also wonder if a firmware change caused this, and if so, if there is any way I can cancel that. The only other difficulty I have heard of that I have not tried is changing the registry, but I hesitate to do so. I have not tried to boot from the CD drive because I have no bootable CD and I'm afraid that my computer can stay stuck in this mode. I hope someone can tell me what I can do to try to solve this problem, preferably without destroying my computer. Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

    P.S. Just adding a note; I went through the stories of the Microsoft and Lenovo update and related updates only I could find were: ThinkPad BIOS update utility easy ejection, driver Intel Matrix Storager Manager for Windows (32 bit) and maybe one of the Intel chipsets Support two Vista updates. I tried to roll back the driver AHCI, but it has no effect.

    Well, my problem is solved and here's how. I had some difficulty in finding how to contact technical support from Lenovo; online options directed me to the IBM support Web site, which was clearly designed for businesses. By selecting the option "Call technical assistance" on the Lenovo Web site and then selecting my country gave me a number of hotline 24/7. After about five minutes of waiting, a young boy by the name of "Tyrese" answered (I may be misspelling his name), but the connection was so bad that we could barely hear each other. Although he semed eager to help, when I told her my problem the first things he proposed were simple, like cleaning the disc, however, when I told him all my efforts, described above, to solve the problem myself and him read the paper since the diagnostic Rescue and Recovery program, after he checked against its computer database error codes quickly He said that the only solution was to launch a new drive. I was pleased to have secured such a resolution successfully appealed for support in less than fifteen minutes; Apparently, all the work that I did trying to fix it myself had paid off in a way. Unfortunately, although I tried to give my address for him, some of them stay out of the address label, which caused trouble to receive the new drive. Once I got it, I installed using the uninstall & remove (former player), stop, start, insert & install (new disc) method that I've referenced previously in this topic. I use the new drive since then without any problems, so I guess that the only solution was to replace the disk. Also, I noticed that the new drive is a Hitachi, maybe a T400/410 and T500/510 Ultrabay Slim drive, which should help to avoid the problems that other users have had with readers Matshi - ta more elders. I hope this description helps anyone else having a problem with the optical drives on the T61/61P.

  • Black screen at startup, unable to boot from the CD

    I did something wrong on my Thinkpad T43 2668, now I have Black Boot screen cannot Access IBM, can not press a function key, cannot start from the CD.  Here's what I did:

    1 got unwanted winxp sp3 updates automatic, then restored to the permeable point via Windows XP system restore, then, cannot start system; cannot boot from the Windows XP CD

    2 2 demarrer start from Linux Live CD, format hard drive and install ubuntu, hidden Partition of domain is not deleted, always there;

    3. can start Linux OS, but black screen on startup. There is no way to see what's happening at startup; Pressing a key of function or IBM bottons returns no result, always boot in Linux;

    4. cannot boot from any CD bootable legal except Ubuntu Live CD;

    5. no means of access Bios to set the boot sequence, therefore, cannot boot from USB floppy either.

    Advice is appreciated!

    PS. I tried Linux live CD some time ago before this trouble, click on "help me to boot from CD", got something installed. I guess it's something installed out of the box and that is why now I can boot from a Linux Live CD.


  • ThinkPad G40 reinstall windows

    I want to reinstall windows, what should I do?

    Then I press the 'factory back to Settings' in the menu that I have after pressing "Access IBM" and I need a CD?

    Or should I use a regular Windows XP installation CD (which I did not) and do like I always do, just reformat the entire disk?

    Pressing F11 will be portable as the day it was everything you put on will be gone all updates from microsoft will have disappeared and no, you don't have the disks to do. Disks are stored on the hard drive that is if you can see the F11 option at startup. Restoration of disks can be purchased on Ebay, around IBM aroun $50 or $25.

  • X 41 of reinstallation of software

    Hello

    This is the time! My HARD disk is choking with years of accumulated garbage, and it's time to have one up.

    1. is it possible to copy entire HARD drive except the OS?

    2. in the case, where can I get a copy of the Windows XP software original tablet that has been installed on the computer when I brought?

    3. is there a Vista tablet edition? It is better to upgrade to Vista on the x 41?

    Thanks for your help.

    Paddy

    Paddy,

    assuming that the R & R works through the Access IBM button, formatting the drive is the worst thing you can do before hand as it will probably kill the function, then you can start looking for a paddle in the proverbial Creek

    When you run a factory using R & R restore it will reset the ThinkPad to the State in which it was received, that is Windows and drivers & utilities with nothing else - all other files will be gone

  • Need help with reset factory for Thinkpad X 40

    Hello

    I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X 40-2371, I want to get back to its factory settings. It doesn't have a CD-ROM drive, so I can't use a recovery CD. Operating system is Windows XP Professional. I tried to use the "Access IBM" and buttons "F11" to see if I can find any option of restoration of the factory, but there is none. Advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the forum!

    It seems that the recovery partition is missing or damaged in total. You will need to get an external multimedia drive and install the OS from scratch.

    Good luck.
