ThinkPad Yoga - black screen

After reading question formidable black screen for other models, I check if the Thinkpad Yoga also has the black screen problem. Since this happened just within one month after the expiration of the warranty, if it proves to be the hardware problem this has strong changes as the latest product lenovo belonging to the family.

Question: I'm back a work House to wake up my sleeping Lenovo. Noticed that he seemed to be in mode black screen with nothing appear. So tried to press a few buttons and then finally turned off using the button. To restart, I could see the sign of Lenovo and the option to press ENTER to check the other options and I ignored as usual scenario happy path and let it go. At the time, that it usually starts showing the Windows screens, I don't see anything happen. A black screen with all the lights on the keyboard still works but no screen. Connected to the projector to see if the login screen displays, but it didn't. Tried to reboot several times, reset using the hole of pin down, ran Diagnostics and tried to update the system etc using the options of troubleshooting, checked BIOS settings - that appear on the screen and the LCD like a charm test pass, but when Windows starts does not work.

ThinkPad Yoga 15 running on Windows 10 pro. 20DQ type of machine.

The frustarting thing is guaranteed just expired in late July, phone support will not even discuss the issue since he arrived at expiration. I spent the right amount of days thinking about spending a lot on this laptop last year only to reach a point in a year I might have to spend little more just to save her. Help, please!

Hello. Is it possible that system has gone through an automatic update to Windows 10 anniversary? If Yes, I have experienced the same problem - it will not start and show only black screen. For me, the previous generation ASR failed also. Here are my options:

(1) I managed to complete the update after you follow this procedure - https://support.lenovo.com/cz/en/solutions/ht501760

(2) if that is not enough at this point (I don't know if this setting is needed before a failed installation), I was able to recover a previous version:

-on another computer, download Microsoft media creation tool and create and install USB offline media

-boot from media by pressing F12 at startup and on the second screen (I think) at installation, you can decide not to install the system, but recover the system - there is a link on the lower left corner. This brings you to the recovery screen where you can revert to a previous version

I would like to know if it's completely irrelevant, or it is useful.

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga X 1 touch screen does not work

    Hi all

    I just bought a brand new Thinkpad Yoga X 1 and out of the box, the touch screen is not recognized by windows and no entry through fingers or via pen works.

  • Yoga 13 screen - Bios side black

    I had problems with the dreaded "black screen" when starting my Yoga13 (but only somethimes!). To try to limit, as there seems to be so many things that can cause this, I went into the Bios settings "F2" and configure it upward to request a password "Lit" before starting windows.

    What I've discovered, is that when product black screen its FRONT the Bios asks the initial password "Power on", IE I do not see the box for the password and if Windows has NOT yet begun to load. To remedy this, I just press the power button to turn off the system, wait 20 seconds and then it will usually start.

    Once past that, no errors always occur on the side of windows.

    Any suggestions on what I could try to fix this?

    Quick update to close this thread.

    The Yoga13 eventually returned to Lenovo who couldn't get a new screen that was apparently necessary. Ended up having to get a refund, then bought Yoga 2 Pro. Discussions on this forum helped me to get all this work. Touch Wood (!), really happy so far

  • ThinkPad Yoga gestures on touch screen

    Hello

    I have the problem that all the actions of Windows 8.1 works perfectly well with the Touchpad, but most does not work with the touch screen.

    Pinch to zoom in, click on a finger or selection or longer a finger click for menu right click drop-down menu work fine.

    Especially in tablet mode, it's annoying to have to enter the pen to use slide from the side of the screen to the right to open the bar of charms and not being able to use my finger.

    I guess it's just a problem of parameters which is a little hard to find - or I'm blind looking for it - because with the exception of theses actions the touch screen works fine and precise as it should.

    Thanks for any help you guys can give me!

    PS. : The Machine is a Thinkpad Yoga

    EDIT: Ok, I've just discovered in playback Mode when the camera is on the right side, everything work perfect - the other 3 positions the problem is still

    I had a similar problem on mine. Recalibrate the touch screen fixed.

    Many people have problems with this on Windows 7 devices that came with touchscreens when at the edge of the touchscreen is not capable of being touched. I'm guessing that Windows 8 requires the button start to limit (or beyond the edge) of the screen for the gesture to be detected.

    When the screen is badly calibrated, when you touch the edge of the screen, it registers as just inside of the edge and is detected as a click instead. Given that the calibration does not change with the rotation of the device, I'd be your vertical calibration is ok (because it works in playback mode), but that your horizontal calibration is a little off.

    If you are looking for "Calibration" in the Control Panel, the "Tablet PC Settings' contains the menu to recalibrate the touch (and the pen if you have a) entries

  • Plug the VGA cable causes the crash or black screen on my Thinkpad. Help!

    On my newly purchased W530, a cable VGA-causes a crash or a black screen on my Thinkpad.

    The foregoing happens whenever I have insert the cable VGA which is quite annoying, because I use it with my projector every day.

    Accidents seem to occur more often when I closed the lid and insert the VGA cable. If I open cover more often get a black screen (which remains black even when I leave the cable again).

    I could try to fix this problem?

    Which driver (or other) would be the most likely cause?

    Thanks Adam! :-)

    Yes, as I mentioned, accidents have disappeared after installing the latest driver Nvidias own site.

    Remaining problems are small problems which I can live with to what NVidia fixes if all goes well with an updated driver.

    But it was really great to see instructions on how to start in safe mode on Windows 8. I always wondered who. Thanks again Adam! :-)

  • Black screen on computer Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 after the opening session in Windows 8 screen

    I return this laptop Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 about a month and it has Windows 8. I start the laptop and once I enter username and password, I have a black screen with the mouse pointer. Lenovo support has been useless. They asked me to run c:\windows\system\restore\rstrui.exe by using the Task Manager, but I get the file not found. When I go to the command prompt by using the Task Manager and check dir listing in the directory of restoration, it shows empty.

    Very frustrated. Can someone please help here on the Microsoft Forum?

    Thank you in advance.

    It seems to me a solution, it worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you as long as you experience the same problem.

    Because you can always go to the sign in screen, do the following:

    Click on the power icon in the lower right to open the menu,

    Hold down the SHIFT key while clicking the button of /restart/ once.

    A screen will appear after a few moments.

    Click and follow the instructions /Refresh/ and let him go during its cycle...

    all fixed!

  • ThinkPad Yoga 14 upgrade to SSD

    Hello

    I just bought the Thinkpad Yoga 14 with i5/8 GB DDR3/1 TB Hybrid drive

    I also bought a processor Intel 240 GB SDD upgrade to.

    I tried to clone the disk SSD, but it gives just a blank screen or select jumps back to the boot of the screen when start to boot.

    I also tried to boot from a USB stick with Windows 8 on it, then install it on the SSD, but the same thing happens when you try to boot from USB (white screen or jumps back to the boot selection screen.

    I tried to turn off Secure Boot, boot legacy mode, boot order, Windows load mode turn off/on... nothing works.

    Technical hotline of Lenovo does not support upgrades.

    Please, any help would be great.

    Hello, I did the SSD upgrade last night and everything works so much better! I'm still not sure about the ram if its extensible or not.

    Here are the steps I took to swap the drive hybrid SSD HARD drive:

    (1) bought SanDisk Ultra II 480 GB Solid State Drive - $139.00

    (2) purchased Insignia 3.0 Portable Hard Disk Drive Enclosure - $29.00

    The case comes with the cable, you must clone the disks and then you can use your old HDD as a disk after having done an image backup and system if you want to, otherwise you have to buy the enclosure but will cable. I found the cost of the cable start around $10 and go on a $29, so I just went with the box. You can find quite different price elsewhere, that's just what I found locally.

    (3) make a backup of your entire system to an external drive, a system image backup and image of the system CD drive just in case.

    (4) download cloning software. I went with the free Sandisk recommended software - EZ GIG IV

    (5) Connect and clone old HDD to your Instructions SDD news will be with your new drive or the software.

    (6) once the clone is complete, unplug your internal battery in the BIOS. Instructions for this can be found in thinkpad manual.

    7) turn the power off and remove the laptop cover. Instructions for this are also in the thinkpad manual.

    (8) remove the old HARD drive. Thinkpad manual instructions

    (9) install the new SSD. Follow the instructions in the manual of Thinkpad and Instructions supplied with SSD

    (10) closing the case back up, put the screws back in and power on.

    He had a black screen for a while when I turned it on and while I studied what had not worked, that I thought it was normal and literally as I was reading all came and was immediately noticeable how fast he was. I ran the Bios Update tool on the lenovo support area but I didn't have to change anything in the bios and everything works great. I did not remove the 16 GB card as Ive read that some people have. I'm still not sure if this makes a difference or not. The event viewer shows no defects, and it shows as active / online and running.

    I'm always interested to find if I can pass the ram from 8 to 16 GB. If anyone knows...

    Also, I've upgraded to Windows 10 the day I bought the machine, so I don't know if that has nothing to do with the swap go smoother.

  • Help of digitizer Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga S1

    OK, so I just got a thinkpad yoga S1. The that I had was the one without the digitizer pen automatically installed in the side of the computer. The pen came separately and it is the same as that exact one used with the version that comes with the pen. I do not know the product code or even what her name. Which driver should I install and how can I register the product? Also, because the version I have has as a black spot where the digitizer normally goes is there a way I can get out and be able to accommodate the supplied stylus separately?

    I think that there are two options, that it is either the stylus or it doesn't. Who does not have integrated pen does not support the feather because of the used Panel. That's what I remember when I was doing research in this unit.

  • Lenovo X 201 laptop computer black screen and LCD does not detect after windows startup

    Suddenly, my Lenovo Thinkpad x 201 shows only a black screen. I checked the LCD screen with a light and I could see a dark image of the Thinkpad logo and then it go completely black. But when he is on safe mode, I saw my desk in black screen (when I use a light).

    I've updated the BIOS also using an external monitor. But still the same. I'm completely at a loss. Please someone help me to slove this problem...

    It is due to the inverter of the screen which has stopped working, it controls the backlight of the LCD/LED screen part when it breaks it causes the backlight to turn off and wont go on then you would need to have ups re-place with a new one.

    Here's an example of how it looks like:

  • MDT 2013 Thinkpad Yoga 12 - WinPE boot problems

    We have two models of Thinkpad Yoga and use the same ethernet USB dongle to run MDT and their image with Win 8.1.

    Type 20 c 0 works very well. When we arrived the 20DK of a new type, we had some problems with our image of fat because of the different hardware profile and we weren't using a configuration of total control for drivers on our MDT.

    I created a new MDT installation on a virtual machine and I use the method of total control of the management of drivers by model. I have a profile of selection for winPE and imported the drivers of storage and network for both models (x 64 only, we don't have any x 86). I tried initially the USB3 Ethernet adapter driver I found under downloads for the 20 c model 0 but have tried since the upload of pack pilot SCCM and other I found specifically for the adapter realtek and SCCM, but nothing has changed. The current versions of pilot in my winpe folder are 8.15.0701.2014 and 8.8.0911.2013. Have updated the deployment share, copied the contents of the x 64 folder and copied the litetouchx64.wim in the sources on our USB startup folder and renamed to boot.wim.

    Currently on the 20DK I get the initial screen for MDT spash with blue background, but before any connection charges of screen I get the blue screen of crash with error (ndis.sys) System_thread_exception_not_handled. I guess I do know for sure that it is a problem of network driver but because it fails before the same connection to the deployment share it led me to believe that this was the case. I tried to turn off 3 USB mode in the bios to see if this will have an impact, and he didn't.

    The 20 c 0 still works fine and I was able successfully to the image (from my old wim of fat that I copied from my old server mdt)

    Completed up to add all the drivers for this model in the folder of WinPE drivers and who took care of her.
