T450s startup takes 35 seconds before displaying the splash screen. (wake up 11sec)

The following are my problems:

1. when starting the machine, it takes about 35 seconds before the first activity screen (screen of Lenovo). After that, it starts normal.
2. when waking off mode 'sleep', it takes 11 seconds before I see directed power stop to 'breathe' and wake up the screen.

It feels like it is a hardware/bios on the issue, as (so far I know) hdd/ssd is accessible only after the bios has loaded and completed its audits of material. When you paste into a bootable usb it starts only flicker after the bios was loaded on the screen.

Question:
Anyone have an idea why my laptop waiting so long to start or wake? I don't mind wait a bit, but in 35 seconds + startup time normal is really boring. Especially with the fact that the laptop shows no sign of life for 35 seconds after ignition briefly the backlight on the keyboard. Alarm delay is also very annoying since even my 7 year old laptop BSOD to wake up faster, and I use a lot "sleep" mode.

Some origins I think about:
-Verification of the material during the initial start-up of equipment does not yet recognize a dedicated GPU card. (POST: Power On Self Test)
-I don't think it's a problem with my software because the problems occurs before any media playback.

I already tried things:
-Reset the bios.
-Start in legacy mode.
-Update the bios
-rebuild MBR (although I think that's the problem.)
(- Refreshing installation of windows, even if I do not expect that's the problem.)

This problem was already at the beginning (with origenal material):
From the first time I started the laptop (with HARD drive), I noticed that it took a long time to start. I remember repeatedly pressing the button ON / OFF and think I did something wrong, when all of a sudden the 'Lenovo' screen appears.

I hope someone can help me!

My problems were solved!

An engineer contacted me that they received a mainboard replacement and they wanted to make an appointment. I gave them the address where I worked the next day because I'm very mobile, and an engineer came by the next day. It appeared to be a qualified IBM engineer and test my machine and came to the same conclusion as me. He then did some tests to see if the problem was caused by something else, then the motherboard but eventually replace my motherboard with good care.

After the replacement of the startup time and wake up was normal as it should be. I'm very happy with the service that Lenovo ThinkPad gave me.

I have to add that when I called for the support that I got someone on the line who couldn't really understand me, neighter, Dutch or English. But it was also duo a bad connection, it seemed to me... But after that call I really didn't expect that it would come to a good end. I then really suppriced isn't 5 days later a Dutch engineer Chief called me for an appointment.

  • How to display the splash screen and background

    Hello

    I have an application that gets images from a server and displays them. what I want to do is to display a loading screen while the images are download and go to another screen when the download is complete. is this possible?

    Thank you

    Dieye

    Yes, it is possible.  You can use a PopupScreen to do this.  Please take a look at the JavaDocs for dialogue, status and PopupScreen for examples of classes, that you can use to display a "please wait" type of screen.

    Once you download is finished, you can close the screen and push the other onto the stack.

    The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

  • Display a splash screen during startup of an application.

    http://www.BlackBerry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/348583/800451/800660/How_To _...

    My question is... is it possible to display a splash screen when the application is launched the first time at the start of Blackberry?

    Sorry if this is an easy question, but I did no UI yet on the BB using Java.

    I would just have some tips or examples of code to start.

    Thank you!

    H'm interesting...

    Mark is right, that you have to extend UiApplication.  If you're stuck with having your icon in the list of task switch, and this means that someone can select it.  So you're going to need to have a screen that shows something innocuous.  I guess you may to override the onExposed() method to immediately push the application in the background, but it is not very friendly.  I would say something like an about screen.  This screen have to do anything, except to allow the user to push down (i.e. UiApplication.getUiApplication.requestBackground ()).

    Before you start looking at your other questions, I think that we have to solve this problem.  I think that you need to create a screen associated with your application.  I do this, I have just the requestBackground of the screen as part of the constructor display you only if you click Task switch icon.

    In fact, you might actually use in your start up.  Instead of pushing the dialog box, you could push this screen, then instead of "OK", the user could just ESC on this screen, or you might have a button above, or just made the request in the background.

    "This is my first BB app, so I'm a bit confused about all these things of thread/AC of background".  This isn't the kind of app that I recommend for a first timer.  You did well to get so far!

    Original title: screen printing.

    Hi supperman.

    I have a problem with the screen capture. When I take a screenshot by pressing the print SCREEN key on my keyboard, I can't get a screen shot in small size, in a Word document.

    someone knows the reason for this? How can I get a screenshot in a normal size. Thank you very much.

    Hi tony.wang,

    If you copy the screenshot in a Word file, it will be the default page of the word file size. It will be in a smaller size to fit into the Word file.

    However, if you want to open the full-size screen capture, you can use Microsoft Paint on Windows application.

  • How can I get default Windows desktop at startup instead of the splash screen

    When I start my computer in Windows 8, how to go automatically to the desktop instead of the start screen?  I prefer much the office.

    Other than that, I bought the upgrade and installed the 64 bit version and everything works well and exceeded my expectations.  I upgraded from Windows XP (32 bit).  I actually did a new installation on a new hard drive. It's the only thing that I find annoying, so far, that and the START button is no longer on the desktop.  I find it annoying as well.  I really like how fast IE10.  I don't seem to have any issues that other people have, no doubt due to the new installation on a new hard drive.

    By design, the Start button is gone in Windows 8. Watch Classic Shell (FREE) or debut8 (free trial for 30 days then $5) as workaround to this problem. Both can be configured to display the office compared to the splash screen...

  • Satellite L640 hangs at the splash screen

    Hi all

    I have a L640 / 01 H that I bought earlier this year. In addition to the original Windows 7 OS, I installed a Linux system on a separate partition.

    Earlier today, I was using Linux (which is what I normally use) and everything was really slow.
    Finally I force-shut-down, power button.

    Now, I noticed a problem with the BIOS on this laptop - if I try to start when there is a USB flash drive is connected, the splash screen just hangs. Today when I rebooted I realized that I had left a flash drive, then I got out and I tried to start it again, a couple of times. Whenever the computer crashes just indefinitely on the startup splash screen.

    Finally I gave him enough time and it takes the selection of Linux boot menu, so I tried to start my usual kernel but he gave me some message about a bad MBR.
    I kept trying to start, but the boot process is stuck, what happens is as follows:

    * The three lights on the left (power, battery and light) come on, no problem
    * HARD drive flashes white for a few seconds, then turns off. Occasionally, it will blink again.
    * At the same time, the screen is just stuck on the startup splash screen. If I try to press f2, f12 or any key too many times it will start emitting beeps whenever I press it. There is no way to get into the BIOS settings.

    Also, I can't boot from CD (Windows recovery CD or Linux LiveCD). Finally some kind of time-out of the entry into force, and the computer restarts itself to start the process all. Yay!

    I tried the stuff "unplug the power cord, remove the battery, hold down the power button / stop, plug back in, try to start" but nothing has changed. I also tried switching memory locations (only one chip of RAM, so I can't try a process of elimination on the RAM).
    Finally, I also open the door to HARD disk and removed the HARD drive, then tried to start. This time the BIOS has answered, if only to tell me that there is no appropriate boot media. At this point, the BIOS was responsive and I could change settings in there, but I could not boot from the CD.

    I thought I'd try resetting the CMOS battery, but I'm worried I'll damage something / make the problem worse. Someone at - it ideas? I know that the thing is still under warranty, but service centres are often slow and I don't want to lose the data from the hard drive.

    Any help would be really appreciated.

    It could be a problem with the CD/DVD drive what you think of this idea?
    Perhaps the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive properly and so there is a problem starting the bootable disc.

    In addition, it might be possible that failures of HARD drive and, therefore, you received an error message about the MBR (master boot record).

    Remove the CD/DVD drive and try to install the Windows booting from a USB flash drive.

    _Regarding the battery CMOS: _
    I would not recommend to disassemble the laptop because you could damage other parts and in addition it should know that the CMOS battery is not removable it s soldered to the motherboard

I tried 2 different monitors just to eliminate this probability but now I am just confused ideas would be appreciated!

    Hi lostone64,

    The fact that you can see the splash screens makes me think that this isn't the video port or motherboard. My hunch is it could be a hard drive failure, operating system error, or problem of display settings. You never see a Windows screen until it goes black?

    Have you tested the hard drive or made sure it appears in the BIOS?
