Lenovo G585 - wifi dropping and video freezing

Hi all,
I bought this Lenovo G585 (Win 8) in January this year, and over the past few weeks some problems have been developing. When I move the laptop, either the video I am streaming freezes, or the wifi drops, or both. Sometimes, even after 5/6 restarts, the laptop will not be able to find the wireless networks and I will have to shut it down, remove the battery, replace the battery, and turn it back on - and for some reason this works!
When I say "move" I literally mean I can be sitting on the sofa and move the laptop from beside me up onto my lap. The problem occurs when I transport the laptop between rooms, too.
I've updated the drivers, changed power management settings, updated my antivirus and run scans, all to no avail. What can I do next?

hi nikitgr,
When Heavyload is stressing the CPU @ 100% load, the CPU clock speed should reach 1.4Ghz as this is the specifications of the processor. (the image below only shows half). As far as I know, you should be getting 1400Mhz per core on 100% load.
If you see the same values above after running Heavyload CPU stress test, I recommend you report your findings to the Lenovo support team as to check if this is a limitation of the unit as per design or if there's a BIOS fix to correct it.

Lenovo G585 and the inbuilt Elan driver

Hello. I'm a proud owner of a Lenovo G585. Swiched from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1. When i was downloading the drivers, at the Touch pad I saw that there is no driver for Elan, and use the inbuilt.
The problem is:
1. The inbuilt 8.1 Elan touchpad driver lacks gesture and multi touch finctionality (like side scroll, etc), and also no visible control panel.
2. No visible option to automaticaly disable the touchpad when external USB mouse is connected. This is a big issue, as most of the times I forget to manually disable the touchpad, and it reacts when I type).
These funtions work in both Win7 and Win8 drivers.
As the Windows 8 driver sometimes crashes on Windows 8.1, I would like to ask for an official Windows 8.1 driver (as Synaptics does have a driver).

Same here (Lenovo G580). Fell back to Windows 8 drivers untill notice from Lenovo.

Error In Installing Windows XP in Lenovo G560

Hi,
I am using lenovo G560 with Windows 7. Now i don't want to use it any more. so i decide to install Windows XP like normally in Desktops as i had used desktops only.
Boot from CD and windows Set started with loading files....in middle it stops by showing Blue Screen of Death I am not sure about it why is come.
Please suggest how to install Windows XP to replace windows 7 in lenovo G560
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello everyone!
I am using Lenovo G460, i guess it is not that different from G560 for the purposes of this discussion.
I had the same problem with a blue screen. I changed settings in BIOS from AHCI to Compatible and installed XP. After that I updated BIOS from within the XP, installed all the drivers, including the AHCI driver from Lenovo website.
Then, I go back to BIOS and change settings from Compatible to AHCI, and I get the blue screen again.
Ok, i don't know anything about NCQ and hot swapping, which I read about on wikipedia, and which i suppose are supported by AHCI, but my question is:
Should i now always stay with my settings as Compatible in BIOS and, therefore, never be able to use such features as NCQ and hot swapping? I repeat, that I don't know anything about AHCI or Compatible mode, but I figure that AHCI is better.
Please help me in finding the answer, whether to stay on Compatible and forget about AHCI, or may be there is some way to solve the problem for XP users with AHCI mode.
Thank you very much.

Hello Kiira Doon,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below may help get your iPhone's display to function.
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?Contact Apple Support.

Skype WiFi for Windows Phone

How do I download Skype WiFi on my Windows phone, when I tap download Skype Wifi from my Windows phone it goes to https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/skype-wifi/id444529922?mt=8

2014-08-04. Yesterday i was in great need of Skype WIFI on Heathrow. But no! Microsoft/Skype still don't have Skype wifi for Windows Phone but has it for all competing mobile platforms! How does that make sense? If MS won't support Windows Phone, who will??
Maybe it is as it should be? I had this discussion with a gentleman that was sincerely convinced, there has been a major policy change at Microsoft HQ regarding Skype. He belived the buy of Skype insyead really was a kind of a hostile buy, in order to close Skype as it it is shaped today, instead in a future introduce a new type of coomunication programme similar to Skype, but totally different and more profitable and when launched a closure/abandoment of Skype will be done.
I don't know, but it was a really well suited gentleman...

Wifi Login window isn't popping up anymore after update to 10.9 Mavericks?

I recently updated my Macbook Pro Retina 15" to 10.9 Mavericks, and since the update, the wifi login window no longer pops up as it did before. I live on a campus residence property with wifi that I have to login with my student ID and password. Before, when I opened my macbook and logged in, the wifi login window would immediately pop up, but now it doesn't pop up at all, and instead I have to manually open Safari and try to access a webpage for it to work. What gives? It's a minor inconvenience I know, but I find it annoying now that even if I only want to use an app like Calendar or iTunes, I have to open safari and click on a link in order to login instead of the window popping up automatically like it did before.
Was this removed from 10.9 altogether or was there some sort of glitch in the upgrade process?

I realize now that the app I'm talking about it the Captive Network Assistant. Something has gone wrong with its detection, as it's not popping up at all anymore. From what I've read, I'm not the only one with the issue either, it seems that after every major OS X update since the feature was introduced, it breaks for some users. I just haven't found any solutions. Anyone, please, any ideas at all?

Under FF 5, my wife's Windows 7 laptop will run Yahoo toolbar, but my Vista won't...WHY??

Just downloaded FF 5 on both my wife's Windows 7 and my Vista machines. FF 5 allows Yahoo toolbar to run under 7, but not under Vista. Any particular reason? or fix??

You don't have to wipe anything, but when you get a chance make sure you backed up to icloud.
What that means is your contacts inside of the phone either physically or liquid damaged. To check
which, you can look inside and if you see a little pink, that would give you a water damage. If you don't
see pink it means that you to many times plugged in that charger the other way or tried to. May be
used some other things to plug in. If you flash the light in you may be able to see those contacts.
If I were you, i would not believe me, good luck!

Reinstall Windows 8 in Lenovo G400

Last day I formatted preinstalled Windows 8 laptop(Lenovo G400) and installed linux. Now I am planning back to Windows 8 Is there any way to get my lost preinstalled windows 8 product key ?

Hi vipinbaby,
Thanks for Posting!
The product key in the BIOS is only meant for an OEM OS,
meaning that you cannot use the product key in the BIOS unless the IWndows 8 installer came from lenovo.
I suggest two options,
1. Install a non OEM (Retail) installer of your desired windows version and it will come with a product key purchased from Microsoft.
2. If you cant to use the BIOS Product key, You can call Lenovo Technical Team and ask on how to obtain the Recovery CD. fees may apply.
Hope ths helps
Cheers!

WiFi problem after upgrading to Windows 8.1 Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

I have this problem after updating to 8 to 8.1
Right after updating to 8 to 8.1, all of a sudden my wifi stops working. I used my philips external wifi usb stick and now I'm able to get the internet going.
However if I disconnect my philips usb I no longer get the internet because the built in wifi that came with the R400 ThinkPad no longer works. I went through the device manager and under properties it tells me, 'Device not working properly' however it is up to date.
Im Running Windows 8.1 64bit Laptop Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

Hi Matti,
Thank you for replying back!
I suggest you to reinstall the Windows 8.1, as all the windows driver will not update, if you have upgraded the Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
Please download Windows 8.1 separately and reinstall the OS, I hope this may resolve the issue.
Note: I am not suggesting for clean installation, only reinstalling the same OS.
Do not update the drivers from ThinkVantage system update utility. I suggest you to uninstall the current drivers and download the drivers manually for Windows 8.1 and install it.
Below is the link to enter the downloads page and download updates accordingly, please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the MTM no. select the exact model.

Hope this helps!

Can't install Windows 7 from usb Lenovo g585

Ever since I got this laptop I've been running into many issues, some of which include hard time updating, windows 8 store not being able to open, just crashes, and sometimes when I press shutdown it restarts instead..just to list a few. So I burned a windows 7 iso image onto a flash drive, but when I select my flash drive from the menu that comes up when I hit f12, It says something along the lines of "missing operating system" "exiting pxe rom" and kicks me back to the windows boot manager, which has 2 options, windows recovery, and windows 8, which is my default os. I've got a legitamate copy of windows 7 64bit iso, and my comp is 64bit. I used windows 7 usb tool to burn the .iso image. My flash drive works on my asus and my desky just fine, I can boot and install windows 7...but not on my lenovo... Any suggestions? I've also ran chkdsk and other stuff too but no avail, thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

HOLD ON GUYS THE PROBLEME IS MINOR AND THE SOLUTION SIMPLE, THE G585 WIN8 IS NOT THAT BAD AFTER U READ THIS OR GO DIRECTLY TO THE LENOVO SUPPORT LINK BELOW AND APPLY THE FIX..
I had the same problem with my new G585, I couldn't get any windows 8 upgrades done by undoing and reversing to pre-upgrade state right after reboot which made my system unstable and very slow to use and windows8 very buggy, it was very frustrating but I didn't give up and kept trying to upgrade with no success to the point I started to think that either something was wrong with my unit even though I had it for less than 2 weeks since I bought it from best buy or Lenovo effed up this time with this sluggish configuration and that I have to add RAM and see if its any better b4 returning it to them for servicing.. well IT TURNS OUT YES LENO EFFED UP BUT NOT WITH THE CONFIGURATION BUT WITH SOME BLOATWEAR CALLED NITRO PDF THAT WILL NOT LET U UPGRADE WINDOWS8 AND SPESIFECLY THE UPGRADE PART OF NITRO PDF FROM TRIAL VERSION TO FULL VERSION CALLED NITRO PDF PRO 7 OR SOME SH** LIKE THAT, THE GOOD PART IS NITRO IS OFFERING A DOWNLOAD FIX U CAN DO WHEN YOU USE THE BLOATHWEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME OR BETTER YET BY DELETING THAT APP AFTER THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO UPGRADE YOUR WINDOWS8 OS AND YOU WILL BE AMAZED BY HOW MANY UPGRADES YOU WILL GO THRU BUT YOUR SYSTEME WILL START RUNNING FASTER AND SMOOTHER FROM THE FEW FIRST UPGRADE. LET ME KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT WITH YOU.

Lenovo IdeaCentre A740 - Wifi Driver Windows 7 missing

Hello,
ich suche für windows 7 einen Wifi Treiber für Lenovo IdeaCentre A740!
Der Treiber von Lenovo funktioniert nicht!
Bitte Helfen!!!
Hello
i just looking for Windows 7 a Wifi-Driver for LenovoCentre A740!
The original driver from the Lenovo-Website wont work!
Pleas Help!

Hi Alex,
also in deinem K450 ist ein Realtek RTL8188E WLAN-Modul verbaut. Auf der Downloadseite ist dummerweise nur der Treiber für Win 8.1 hinterlegt. Ich vermute, hier wurde angenommen, dass unter Win 7 der inboxed Treiber verwendet werden kann. Laut deiner Erfahrung wird das Modul aber nicht automatisch von Windows installiert.
Bitte teste ob sich einer dieser Treiber installieren lässt:
