  • Graphics BIOS Z580

    Hello

    Some owners of Z580 may help me? I intend to buy a Z580.

    The Z580 BIOS has an option to choose separate graphics cards (i.e., dedicated Nvidia card)?

    Some models include a choice in the BIOS only between UMA and switchable graphics (Optimus).

    Other models have 3 choices in the BIOS; UMA, discreet and switchable. I want to know if the Z580 comes with these 3 options.

    Thank you.

    Hi jaray,.

    do you mean some Lenovo models come with three options or that some models Z580 come with three options?

    In any case, here is a picture of the BIOS Z580 lenovoservicetraining.com options

  • The hinges of Z580

    My name is Albert and I bought a series of idea Z580 last November (2012). It is really amazing to understand that the guy (Leno shop-thrissur-kerala) actually predicted the first complaint from my laptop. The story is like this - when I got my laptop, I asked him to give me a real answer to my question - "what complaint should I expect the (hardware) laptop." He gave me advice that I open the laptop (I mean, opening of the lid/screen part so that the laptop keeps a form of 'L', to use) gently pushing the part of the screen, in the middle part of the upper side of the screen (near the camera) off the mouse pad. Since then I have (the only user) did this everytime I open the machine. And have been taking care of him like a baby... !! But just after 9months right hinge (when you face an open laptop) party started, which gives a little bit to sound and when I looked, I could see that the outer shell of the CPU section of the laptop on the left had apart from the definition of the hinge, a came out. I'm heartbroken, literally, as I am not a regular user and has been good to take care of my machine.

    Hi albert_cv,

    I'm sorry to hear what happened...

    Because the device is still under warranty, I would suggest that you call the Technical Support to report the problem,

    I'm sure that a problem of wear like this is covered. Please see the following contact link

  • Lenovo Z580 does not start after the BIOS update

    I tried to update the BIOS of my lenovo Z580 but when it restarted it says "boot PXE on IPv4/IPv6. When I booted without internet LAN cable there was a window with this: Start menu

    Ah yes before you say it on the hard drive of the BIOS is classified more than IPv4/6

    I am running Windows 7 SP1 home premium

    Hello! without doubt, you went to 5FCN95WW BIOS, haven't you? you need to spend in startup mode in the BIOS. I can't remember which option is enabled by default, but there are only two of them - UEFI and legacy. you need to change to one that is not set by default

    In addition, you need to know 5FCN95WW is buggy, and downgraded to 5FCN35WW would be your best bet. Once you sort the boot problem, consult this guide to downgrade: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-P-Y-and-Z-series/Guide-BIOS-Downgrade-from-5FCN95WW-to-5FCN35WW/...

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    I'm sorry that you are having problems.

    Sudden stops can definitely be caused by overheating. As you say that your machine is new, the best advice is to call and discuss with them.

  • Touchpad not working not not Z580

    Hello.

    First of all, I hope that my post is placed in the right place.

    Since yesterday my notebook computer touchpad (Z580) stopped working after full initialization of Windows 7 (I can use it for a few seconds) so I know it is not a material thing. I've also updated my drivers, still the same problem. And I can still use a USB mouse.

    I searched the internet a solution but without success.

    I have my laptop for about a year and I'm very happy with it.

    Hope someone knows the answer.

    Jeroen.

    Tanks, but since this morning my touchpad started working properly again without doing anything special.
    I don't know what started the problem, I tried many different things without success, I also restarted my laptop several times yesterday, nothing worked.
    But I'm glad its not now.

    Thank you for your support.

    Topic can be closed now.

  • 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.

  • Bluetooth Linux on IdeaPad Z580

    I was wandering if someone managed to get the Bluetooth works on Linux on the Z580. I'm a Linux user for a long time, but I still have to use a computer with bluetooth in there. I have no experience with Bluetooth on computers

    I know in fact I ordered a machine with Bluetooth in there and have also ensured that Bluetooth is enabled in the BIOS, but it does not show in lspci or lsusb and lsmod shows not all Bluetooth modules being loaded. I use a kernel in version 3.6.10.

    If someone got the Bluetooth to work, I would appreciate the help.

    P.S. I am rather uncomfortable using a command-line Linux, although I should mention that I do not use one of the major distributions. I'm on that is called Rosa Linux and is the only one that has been proven on my laptop because it is the only one where udev trying not to kill the CPU.

    Hello

  • How to set up my battery Z580 settings to load completely?

    Hello

    I bought a new Lenovo Z580 this last June. Shortly after I started using it, a system message popped up telling me that since I often have my laptop plugged in, it might save battery if I let the system change my settings so that the battery does not charge completely - it would save the life of the battery in the long term, I would be free to change the setting whenever I wanted to. Well, that was the biggest mistake ever. I now basically have an office because I can't find a setting that allows me to change the battery is fully charged (it only charges 40 or 50%). There isn't any mention of this feature in the materials user guide I can find and none of these Options to allow me to change battery charge capacity. Help, please! I'm stuck with a 'portable' new which can barely be unplugged for an hour, and that's the most frustrating terrible adjustment I've ever seen in a computer. Thank you very much to all those who can help you.

    Cora

    Welcome
    The laptop automatically changed the setting for maximum lifetime of battery energy management. To change this, open the GUI of energy management. Then switch to the setting of the battery in order to optimize for the runtime. That should do it.

  • USB 3.0 only works as 2.0 (z580)

    Hello I have a computer laptop ideapad Z580. Since I bought it in 2012, the ads about usb 3.0 ports never worked at that speed. They work as type 2.0 with usb 3.0 flash drives. Can you help me to fix it? I have 10 windows but I tried usb 3.0 drives the previous years on Windows 8 and 8.1. I have not tried it on win 7 because I improved a few days after the purchase. I flashed the new bios yesterday as well. I want to add here that the bios do not have an option to enable usb 3.0 and drivers for win 7 to Lenovo support for usb 3.0 page do not solve the problem also.

    Hello guys,.

    I finally fixed it, but I don't know how. I have monitired the USB with the HWINFO64 after I plugged a USB 3.0. The stick was visible in USB 2.0 and the write speed was less than 10 MB/s. After a couple of safe is ejected and plug-ins the port began to work as expected. In the future, I hope to work as usual at every time and I did not unplug the key several times in order to work. I have nothing else to offer to this discussion.

    PS. My write speed was about 95 MB/s with single files of 4 GB (sandisk extreme 32 GB).

  • Z580 - WLAN adapter problem

    I've got Lenovo IdeaPad Z580, with Core i7, 4 GB of RAM and 1 TB of HARD drive processor.

    A few months ago, I noticed that my BONES sometimes would freeze (make this beep sound freakin ') if I moved my computer too fast in my office (weird). She got worse a few weeks ago and seems to be somehow connected to my wireless network adapter.

    It especially simply - nothing works. Switch WLAN disappears from the BIOS configuration, etc., like it wasn't even there. If I'm lucky (as I am now), it would work somehow. All of a sudden appears again in the BIOS etc. I can even use it on my Windows 8, but... If I propose a little my laptop, it will suddenly freeze and restart causes WLAN adapter not in the system at all, or the connection is de-energized ("metered" stuff etc.). Restart adapter according to the results of system in "find no WLANs", wlan switch endangered or gel.

    I tried to reinsert the WLAN card, it sorta fixed stuff when I did it for the first time, I had a week or two without a problem, but he returned and reintegrated support is no longer.

    First question what I can do with this adapter WLAN problem?

    Second question is - while doing all this thing reinserting, my screws are a little bare now (but not completely, it is possible to get them unscrewed without any problem) because I have not noticed my screwdriver is broken and ruining. My laptop is still covered by the warranty? I do not have removed or broken any warranty seals in the process well, just the screws.

    I forgot to mention, by WLAN adapt is Atheros AR9485WB-EG.

    Information on repair mentions setting parts disconnected.

  • Z580 - laptop came with BIOS PASSWORD?

    3 years ago, I bought a lenovo Z580 since m6mobile.fr.

    I've never had access to the BIOS up to this point, because I want to sell this laptop.
    However, there is a BIOS password set, and I never put it. Do you have the dealer set a BIOS password on my laptop, or was it Lenovo?

    If you say it was me, no it was not, unless someone crept into my room and controlled to me which is probably not the case.

    Thank you

    Mod edit: System model added to the front of the subject line to improve visibility / clarity.

    I FOUND THE PASSWORD ^^

    I called digitalriver and asked them if they put a password on their laptops...

    They told me to try 1234 and 0000

    And guess what! It's 1234! So happy ^^ actually I'm involved so no luck I tried 123456 and 12345678 before but I never thought it will be 1234!

  • Lenovo z580 not recognizing wireless adapter

    Hello everyone

    I just brought a new Lenovo ideapad z580. It came with windows 8, which is unusable. So I did a clean install of windows 7 and keep trying to install the drivers.

    Windows refuses him acknowledge the existence of my wireless adapter. I opened the bottom to the top and I can see her, but he does not recognize. I installed the driver, and it does not recognize. I went into device management, and there was a small exclamation mark by "network controller" I don't know if this is the wireless adapter that it does not recognize. I went into bios and disabled WLAN and then restarted and reanbled it in bios and tried again all without success. I don't know what to do I am at a loss...

    Someone at - it ideas?

    The network controller is the wifi card. Try to install the drivers manually from the Device Manager.

    I recently had my father the IdeaPad Z580. It is really eager to stream its videos and watch them on TV. I connected it today via a HDMI cable and got really excited when the screen was reproduced on the TV... but then, when I clicked on internet Explorer tile, I got the following error message:

    This application cannot open
    The screen resolution is too low for this application to run.
    Change your screen resolution

    Seems simple enough... but really did not have a clue what to do! Doesn't help that I'm a complete newbie to Windows 8!

    I'd be really grateful if someone here would be able to help / tell me what to do! ^^

  • The IdeaPad Z580 smooth vibration

    Hello

    I brought a Z580 IdeaPad and after somedays, I discovered that the upper left corner of the keyboard is a bit loose and not closed so that when I press the ESC key for example the guardian of this corner layer goes up and comes down a bit and I'm worried about that; is it possible that the layer is not well confirmed?

    And another thing is that when I close the lid and slide my fingers gently on its opaque layer I feel a kind of vibration and I think it's due to the rotation of hed HDD maby or maby it's because of the last problem I said no farms in the keyboard?

    Please, if there is a problem help me and guide me to solve.

    Thank you very much.

    HARD drives cause a vibration, it's normal, I have two Z580 and one of my keyboard has some flex in the same place as your clicks when I press ESC, my other Z580 is fine, solid keyboard.

    I found a guide to remove the keyboard, only 4 screws, 1 for the back cover and 3 for the keyboard, so I followed the guide and redesigned the keyboard and mine is now a bit better, there still so flex, just not so much.
