Yoga S1 Windows 8.1 Activation disabled and poor (or not at all Lenovo support).

Lenovo dear friends,

I bought Thinkpad Yoga S1 with Windows 8.1 on board.

I had a problem with the OS which I leaded to order the recovery DVDs with Lenovo's Thinkpad support in Poland (thank you, had set records in 7 days).

The reinstallation of the operating system WIndows 8.1 repeat my license code included in the BIOS is not valid and I can no longer trigger the system. See the event log to try the sample and fail when my system is activated, please.

----------------------------------

I contacted Lenovo's Support in Poland and they tend to say that it's because Microsoft has cancelled my codes for unknown reason. Contact Microsoft they told me that he his provider (Lenovo) problem and they are not responsible - will I get new license key from Lenovo. Polish support Thinkpad leans on the problem since 9 January, without success.
The grace period of Windows is already over and I can't use my ultrabook now without activating the license.
What is the famous Thinkpad support quality? I already have 4 Thinkpads and sorry gyus, but I am considering length of some other providers.

When I called them, the solution provided by the support of ThinkPads was... "would you like reainstall the BONE once again for another period of grace? I thought it was some kind of joke, but it wasn't... Asking the responsibility of the Lenovo for the operating system Windows had, told me that Lenovo is not responsible and it gave me advice to buy hardware with no BONE next time, have the license of Microsoft separatelly box.

I'm really disappointed. It's my last Thinkpad I think. It seems even to have the warranty is not enoug to get the support of Lenovo - I'm on my own...

Kind regards

P.

Solved!

Finally, I have another DVD from Lenovo recovery. Now it's working. Seems that the first DVD series was disabled .

Kind regards

    Windows Live Error 0x800CCC0E, socket 10013 error

    I use Windows Live mail for months and suddenly can not receive or by e-mail.  I'm getting Error 0x800CCC0E, socket 10013 error ID.  I don't think that all the parameters have been changed recently.  What motivates this error?

    This computer is home and cable? If so, this is the e-mail scan probably the cause. According to your AV program, you may need to reinstall.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email
    http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

    Note that for many AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck e-mail scanning when the option is available.

    Also note that WLMail has its own forum.

    Hello

    • When you receive this error message?
    • What were the changes made before the issue started?

    Try the SFC scan on the computer.

    SFC/scannow is a very useful command that you can use in any version of Windows. When the SFC (System File Checker) command is used with the/scannow switch, the tool analyzes all the important files of Windows on your computer and replace if necessary.

    Missing and the corruption of the operating system (like many DLLs) files are probably the main cause of the major problems of Windows. In view of this, plus the fact that the SFC/scannow is completely automatic and very easy to use, the tool should be usually one of your top not troubleshooting.

  • Computer is very slow and IE does not work all the time.

    I bought a computer from my old employeer.  He is doing all sorts of things, or should I say not to do all sorts of things.  It is very slow and IE does not work all the time.  They have questions arise and ask if the administrator oks things and other things like that.  It came with any disks.  I would like to wipe, clean and load a new disc, but I don't know where to find the disc or if I can do it.   Can someone please?

    Hello

    Proceed as follows to contribute to these two questions. You can probably buy the disks of Vista machine to system or get
    the former employer to do it for you if necessary.

    Try these and it can also be a good idea to update your main drivers later. The General corruption can also play a
    role in this issue. And even the TCP/IP stack might need to be refreshed.

    What antivirus/antispyware/security products do you have on the machine? Be one you ALREADY had on this
    machine, including those you have uninstalled (they leave leftovers behind which can cause strange problems).

    If no joy there's something blocking perhaps.

    Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - IE with no Addons - what works best?

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Advanced - tab click on restore, and then click Reset - apply / OK

    IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security tab - click on reset all default areas - apply / OK

    Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

    not better?

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
    "(and it causes problems - you never update Java to go back in and turn it off again)." Search for other possible problems.

    Windows Defender - tools - software explore - look for problems with programs that do not look right. Permit
    are usually OK and "unauthorized" are not always bad. If in doubt about a program to ask about it here.

    Could be that a BHO - BHOremover - free - standalone program, needs no installation, download and run - not all
    are bad, but some can cause your question (toolbars are BHO).

    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your

    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
