• ThinkPad Edge E420 keyboard (FRU) part number

  I have a Thinkpad Edge E420 model CTO 1141 - I need to replace the keyboard (spilled coffee and the keys are blocked)-since it is out of warranty, I intend to do it myself - when I looked for parts.

  If I give the model number, then the FRU for the keyboard presents itself as 04W0764.

  If I give the serial number also then the FRU will be 04W2631.

  Which is the right to a 04W0764 or a 04W2631?

  Two identical models are?

  Please notify.

  Thank you

  Hi bhaskar39, welcome to the forums.

  both are actually correct.  As far as I can tell that the 04W2631 is a number of 'old' that has been replaced by 04W0764. You can also use a 04W0800 that is from another manufacturer to another.

• Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E420s + Intel Turbo Memory 2GB?

  Hi guys,.

  I have an Intel Turbo Memory 2 GB. I wonder, can it be used in the E420s? I installed it in the free Mini PCIe, but it is not 'show' anywhere.

  Any idea?

  Thank you! See you soon.

  Although this 'free mini pci-e' resembeles Mini PCI-E physically it is port mSATA, something totally different, you can buy mSATA SSD for the port and use it as a boot partition.

• 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 E220 "Critical battery problem" even AFTER updating firmware of the battery

  Hey,.

  I am owner of a Thinkpad E220 (5380-CTO) and the "Lenovo Thinkpad Toolbox" gives me daily alerts that I have a "critical battery problem". The link takes me to a page to download and update the firmware of the battery. "Updates to the Firmware of battery for hand and slice batteries (external) - ThinkPad Edge E220s, E420s Edge, X 1" http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?DocID=HT062049&AID=10429688&PID=3719336&CJURL=http%3A%2F...

  I went through all the steps to update the firmware numberous times, including making the recalibration of the battery and I STILL get the daily 'critical battery error message '. Please help, the daily scans eat up RAM and it's annoying that I have to cancel every day.

  The battery, from what I can tell, works otherwise.

  Thank you!

  Hi all

  Just to give you an update. Our side engineering has tested and managed to reproduce the problem in their labs. They can confirm that by uninstalling the box to Lenovo tools and installation of the currently supported ' Lenovo Solution Center ' as a brand already proposed forum solved the problem.

  The "Lenovo Solution Center" can be downloaded from the link below.

  Do give it a shot and let us know.

• 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.

• X 300 dual battery fully discharged battery error critical

  I kept my Thinkpad X 300 for two weeks and fully discharged batteries. Now when I plug it in, the charging light lights up for about a minute, then turns off again for five minutes. If I press the power button, I see a "critical battery error' BIOS. The two batteries are installed, and both are Lenovo authentic, recently replaced and in good condition. I'm in Chile, where the power is 220 vold, cycle 50, which was not a problem in the past or for my other laptops. Ten minutes before that happened, it worked well.

  I thought about it. The wire just before the power supply was frayed internally and worked intermittently. I got a new CAP welded to the and now all is well again.

• ThinkPad Edge 14 Bluescreen - cannot find the cause

  Hello

  I have my new Thinkpad Edge 14 about 2 weeks ago! It worked very well for a few days and then all of a sudden blue screen appeared and he did it again! I'm not sure that it is connected or not, but the day before I upgraded to Windows 7 with the latest patches and updates!

  After the first blue screen, it began to restart or show the blue screen every few minutes. I also got bluescreen in safe mode.

  I tried to restore to before the update of the points but it did not help at all. Then I tried to use the restore to factory setting by pressing F11 and he tried to reinstall windows, but windows didn't even for the first time and it freezes! No I can not even access windows or use restore factory. I called the customer service and the guy told me to run software from Lenovo's diagnosis I did but he could not find any error with disk hard Ram ro!

  I really don't know what to do next...

  Awesome!

  Try to stay away from the unit updated driver provided by Windows, install only the updates of security. Looks like it was a MS update device driver that caused it.

• Windows 7 future re-setup on ThinkPad Edge

  • image of the disk by using the Toolbox, and this image now resides in the Q drive
  • a disk recovery & Rescue CD burned

  I found the product key, under the battery ok...

  Questions

  1. Will there now be a version of the preinstalled version of Windows 7 on one of these, because after trying to have a glance using Explorer, it is not clear that there is?
  2. The rescue CD & recovery has a pre-launch and a startup folder, but Windows 7 there?
  3. If not, is it possible to make a copy of Windows 7 pre-installed?

  Thanks for any info on this.

  Your back ups include Win 7 and all the programs that were originally on the hard drive.
  You also have button Rescue and Recovery, which can restore
  to factory State (original).

• 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.

• 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.
