  • Breath of screen - Windows 7 - Ideapad U460

    I had this Ideapad U460 for about two months. Yesterday, when I opened the lid, the screen was really blown. Text is very light against the white background, and all charts are very light. This isn't a problem with the backlight, even when I turn the backlight all worms down while is still blown.

    I went into the Windows 7 color calibration Wizard and had in turn gamma at the bottom so that it can seem somewhat normal, but after I close the lid and it reopened, the problem is back.

    Is this a hardware problem? How should I do? It is very difficult to use the computer with such a blown screen.

    Thank you-

  • Kernel-EventTracing for Windows 10 ideapad Y700

    During the system startup, there is a black screen with cursor in the middle and I have to wait a few minutes for windows to come and ask for the password. It happened to me several times and everytime I look at the event viewer, it indicates that the source is kernel-event tracking with Event Id 3 and 'session' as the task category. It is said ""the session stopped because of the following error: 0xC0000188 ".

    My laptop is new, and very often this error! (I have upated at 10 Windows once I received my laptop)

    I solved the problem by selecting the option "circular logging".

  • Windows on Ideapad Y510P ExpressCache question - gel Constant 8.1

    Hello

    I recently bought the laptop Y510p and updated to 8.1 windows

    Since the upgrade, I'm telling gel, which could last 10seconds or 10 minutes.

    Any time I restart the computer, it crashes, and the only way to kill him is to press the button works / stop.

    Checked the eventviewer and I found the following disclaimer appearing every minute:

    After much research, I came to the conclusion that the ExpressCache is the cause.

    at the time wherever I've uninstalled it, issues disappeared.

    System will reboot without any problems, it will not be freez.

    Checked the following article:

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?docid=HT074404

    Tried to re - install ExpressCache but the problem started to presist immediately, constant freezing and the message above in Event Viewer.

    Everyone knows the same problem? If you did, did you mange to solve?

    Obviously, I'm happy at this stage that frost has disappeared, but at the same time, I really would like to have full use of the system and would like to get it resolved.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hello.

    Talked with Support and unfortunately, this seems to be a matter of HW.

    Given that I've owned only the laptop for less than 31 days I received a full refund/replacement code.

    I would say that anyone having the same problem, contact technical support and advises because that is the question to support him rather than S/F.

  • Automatic adjustment of brightness in window 10 (IdeaPad U260)

    Hi all

    How to disable the automatic adjustment of brightness down screen?

    Thank you very much for your advice in advance!

    Thanks for your advice.

    In fact, I tried 2 options, as shown in your link but still not.

  • Computer takes forever to start (windows 8)

    Until recently my phone has taken an hour or more at the start (and I'm pretty sure it takes a lot of time to stop but that doesn't bother me). When I hit the power button / I hear the fan or something when I put my ear close by, but all lights only stays on for a few seconds and then I don't hear it anymore. My computer will simply if sit like a black screen... as the monitor is asleep or something, suspecting he was asleep I tried to hit the SPACEBAR several times to wake up but no it doesn't. . After what seems like years, I finally see the lenovo loading screen and it starts up fast from there. I tried to run ccleaner, tried to make a record of cleaning / optimization, I scanned for virus/malware, I fiddled around in the boot parameters by running 'msconfig', disabled some startup programs and nothing I tried worked even. I go GeekSquad.com and they tried to help me remotely and they said that "it seemed that I just needed a good tuneup", so if any of you know what they do to optimizations that could be useful and I can try to do it myself.

    When I go on the start with Ctrl Alt Del menu it says my last time of bios is about 2.8 seconds

    I guess I can give you the specs of my computer just to save time incase someone asks:

  • Cannot boot from disc or USB on Ideapad Z710

    I try to install Debian GNU/Linux on my Windows 8 Ideapad Z710, and I can not even my laptop to boot from an external support.

I'm not actually trying to boot from a network, I want to just start from the built-in DVD player or my DVD USB drive. When I boot with these settings, I get the error: network EFI 0 for IPv4 (...) initialization failed, and a similar one for IPv6, then it starts with Windows. Why I can't boot from DVD or USB?

    Another thing I tried is affecting Boot Legacy Support and Boot Priority to first legacy Mode (with Secure Boot disabled) which translates my computer laptop startup in directly to Windows even when ODD USB appears first in the boot order.

    Please tell me how to start on a Linux DVD or a USB on this machine! It's a major purchase for me, and if I can't install Linux on it, this laptop is completely useless for me. Please answer.

    Try this:

    1. fix the disabled startup.

    2. set start on Legacy Support Mode.

    3. start first priority inheritance

    4 Save and exit.

    5. stop computer.

    6. Insert your usb pendrive.

    7. press on Novo.

    8. Select the Boot menu

    9 select your USB key, and then press ENTER.

    Note: USB Boot must be enabled.

    System restore

    Ever wished that you can go back in time? With Windows, you can.

    Installation sometimes a driver or a program can make Windows run slowly or erratically. System Restore can return programs and system files from your PC to a time where everything worked, potentially prevent hours of troubleshooting of headaches. This will not affect your documents, images or other data.

    In Windows 7, you can create system restore points more and see exactly what files will be deleted or added when your PC is restored. For more information, see create a restore point.

    For more protection, use the restore system backup and restore, which is designed to help save email, photos, documents and other personal files.

    To use the system restore

    Before you start the system restore, save open files and close all programs. System Restore will restart your PC.

    1. Open system restore by clicking the start . In the search box, type restore the system and then, in the list of results, click on system restore. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. Follow the steps in the wizard to select a restore point and restore your computer.

      For more information, see System Restore: frequently asked questions.

    In Windows 7 system restore can prevent headaches hours after an accident.

  • IdeaPad Flex 2 - 14 d: constantly running at high speed of the fan: 8.1 Windows

    Hello.

    I have a Flex 2 - 14 d running Windows 8.1 Ideapad and real pilots.

    The fan runs constantly at high speed.

    So I have no complaint about overheating, but instead, I have to complain about is cold knees.

    Y at - it a possibility to adjust the fan speed?

    Best regards

    Eleichstetten

    I have Flex 2-15 and suffered from the same problem. By trial and error, I found that (although not documented) a specific version of the TPFanControl (http://www.staff.uni-marburg.de/~schmitzr/tpfc.html) does not work with my laptop. Opt for the 0.62e version. It is a cool utility, has several conditions of default security in standard BIOS procedures if something is still wrong. Temperature to the fan speed mappings are user adjustible, so you must refine your laptop (default values are designed for Edge E520, so don't not necesserily ideal).

    A HUGE relief!

  • I have improved my i5 Ideapad Z580 to Windows 10. Big mistake?

    I took in all messages from Microsoft insisting on the fact that my computer was completely compatible and that I should upgrade to Windows 10. It does appear to me that I should have checked the Lenovo Web site first to be sure. After the upgrade, I noticed two things: (1) the system seemed to work fairly well, and (2) I couldn't find Dolby Home Theater v4 (one of my absolute favorite programs). When finally, I looked on the Lenovo Web site, I found the following page with the title, 'Dolby Home Theater does not work after upgrade Windows 10' (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht104006).

    When I checked the 'supported upgrade Windows 10 list' (https://support.lenovo.com/documents/ht103535), as indicated on the page, I saw that Ideapad Z580 was not on it. The page passes, saying that if your machine is not on the list, "drivers have not been updated for this machine, and Lenovo is not recommended an upgrade of Windows 10.» The page continues with possible solutions, but does it make sense to try again?

    Then I found another page site called Lenovo, 'Windows 10 Upgrade Guide - IdeaPad Lenovo Notebook' (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht103611). The news here was not better. He said, 'the following listed computer models include hardware components not fully compatible with Windows 10. Therefore, the upgrade of these models to 10 Windows is not recommended. "Unfortunately, Z580 is on this list.

    There are therefore, after Lenovo, hardware and software problems, and two recommendations DO NOT upgrade the Z580 to Windows 10. I did the upgrade. I have not run each program and I'm even not sure that all programs, other than the Dolby Home Theater, obtained through the upgrade (for example, Youcam have not). But the system seems to work pretty well; It may even work better she did it under Windows 7. I really miss the Dolby program. I have 30 days from July 29 to decide if I want to go back to Windows 7. So I have a few questions:

    1. as the system seems to work without major problems (outside), I should stay with Windows 10?
    2. If I stay with Windows 10, I should try the solutions described in 'Dolby Home Theater does not work after upgrade Windows 10' (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht104006) to restore the Dolby Home Theater?
    3. given that Lenovo has said that the Z580 has "not fully compatible with Windows 10 hardware components", am I headed for problems if I continue using Windows 10?
    4. given that pilots who do not have been updated, at least for the Dolby program and perhaps for others, it would be better to go back to Windows 7?
    5. is it possible that Lenovo will eventually update these drivers? If so, when does anyone know?
    6. I've heard that going back to Windows 7 can be very tricky. It is worth?
    7. If missing pilots as well as hardware components which are not completely compatible with Windows 10, why my system seems to work correctly?

    Sorry for the long post. I know there are some posts on this Forum that address these problems, but they are for a year - literally of August 2015 - and things possible has changed since then.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello mgsilv,

    Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo.

    I'll give you my view on your questions.

    1. as the system seems to work without major problems (outside), I should stay with Windows 10?

    It is up to you. The fact that your model is not supported means that Lenovo has not tested some older models. The way I see it, if not tested, there is no guarantee that it will be, or will not work.

    2. If I stay with Windows 10, I should try the solutions described in 'Dolby Home Theater does not work after upgrade Windows 10' (https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht104006) to restore the Dolby Home Theater?

    If I were you, I will try the solutions, especially as long as you have the option to return to the previous operating system. Be sure that the system restore is enabled and works. It would not hurt to create a Restore Point before any change of Dolby. You also have an option to restore the drivers by using Device Manager in Windows 10.

    3. given that Lenovo has said that the Z580 has "not fully compatible with Windows 10 hardware components", am I headed for problems if I continue using Windows 10?

    I can't answer because I don't know what kind of changes Windows 10 will in the future, and if your hardware and/or software will continue to be compatible...

    4. given that pilots who do not have been updated, at least for the Dolby program and perhaps for others, it would be better to go back to Windows 7?

    See my response to #1.

    5. is it possible that Lenovo will eventually update these drivers? If so, when does anyone know?

    I can't speak for Lenovo, but given all new computers with OEM to catch up, I doubt that they go too far back to update the drivers for the older models. You can always keep checking back to the list of compatibility and drivers on Support to see if anything changes.

    6. I've heard that going back to Windows 7 can be very tricky. It is worth?

    I have not heard that.

    7. If missing pilots as well as hardware components which are not completely compatible with Windows 10, why my system seems to work correctly?

    It has not been tested. This does not mean that it has been tested and failed.

    Sorry for the long post. I know there are some posts on this Forum that address these problems, but they are for a year - literally of August 2015 - and things possible has changed since then.

    For some models there.

    If I were you, I would continue to use 10 for a week or so just to be sure everything works (printer, ports, your old software, etc.). If you can't get absolutely Dolby or anything else to work, weigh priorities, taking the Windows 7 End of SupportDates.

  • Cursor disappeared on my IdeaPad after upgrade to 8.1 Windows

    Recently, I upgraded my Ideapad to 8.1 Windows with my graphics driver as well as another driver.

    After upgrading my pointer disappeared on restart. My mouse pointer appears always as usual at the login screen, but after I login, it disappears. The cursor is still active, so I can still run applications, but the cursor is not visible and it is very frustrating.

    If someone has encountered this problem with their upgrade and if so, would you be able to share something with me?

    Thank you

    Only, I have solved my problem. After upgrade to Windows 8.1, I noticed that the Pen & Touch option was no longer available in my control panel.

    For those of you who own a Wacom tablet, you need to reinstall you Wacom using the CD they provide and that should solve your problem immediately.

    Windows was going to charge me $160 to fix the problem, saying that my computer must be riddeled with the Trojans, which is the reason why my cursor was not show.
