2958-J6Y performance

hi guys,
I just bought a Lenovo 3000 G550 2958-J6Y, and made a clean win7ultimate 64b install.
I am having serious performance isues in what i consider key spots:
1 windows graphics: in areo mode, windows and menues show up slowly like a bad vista install.
2 opengl games running below average fps... (I'm aware the video card isn' that great but still)
I think the problem (if there is a problem) is the video driver. win7 downloaded and installed it.
any suggestions before I move to xp 64bits? is this a good move? I didn¨t notice a full set of drivers for xp 64b in the drivers page: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/en/DriversDownloads/drivers_list.aspx?CategoryID=600154
many thanks in advance. the machine itself works like a charm but I need the rigth OS.
greetings

It didn't came with card reader..
I tried to install the bluetooth driver but none was detected by the software... what gives?!
anyway, I'm pretty happy with the pc. it works fine with games, movies and music. although windows media center it's a dissapointment....
i think w7 doesn't work too well with the pagefile since i hear a lot of HD noise.
I hope the full set of drivers will complete soon, I thnk I need the chipset drivers for w7 64b...
thanks duck!

Lenovo G550 2958-j6y Bluetooth not found

Hello, I just buy a lenovo g550 2958-j6y and I can´t turn on the Bluetooth device. I press Fn+F5 and I only get the option for turn on/off the wireless card and I can´t install the Bluetooth driver for windows XP, it says "Bluetooth device not found". On the specifications (www.lenovo.com.ar >>> Products >>> Value Line >>> 2958-j6y) says that it has Bluetooth. Can anybody help me, please?

If I go to THIS Lenovo web page and type your
model number (2958-J6Y) in Quick Path box on right,
the Original Description for your laptop does not show bluetooth.
Maybe it is just an option?

Camera suddenly not working

people of lenovo, loyal costumers, lend me your ears.
the device "Lenovo EasyCam" integrated in my 1 month old g550 2958-J6Y laptop stopped working from 1 day to another. there are drivers in the support page and it's easy to realize wich are the corect ones. i've installed them but then neither the lenovo software or live messenger seem to find it.

thanks for your help.

any other user of the same laptop can point me in the right direction? i would hate to take it back to the shop...

Which stage the Prompt will be performanced?

When I set a Prompt with a default value, is the Prompt will be performanced at database side? Or it will be performaced at BIEE Server side after the SQL results have been loaded here?
Due to the tuning of BIEE is a big issue now, and I can't find any useful infomation on it, Could anyone tell me some Document Name or any blod address to learn more tuning BIEE?
Thanks,
Satine

Thank you for your reply.
I have noticed the Prompt is executed at BIEE Server side. If I am right, then I am very curious how to tune the application like this: when the first time open dashboard with no default value (All) as Prompt is very slow, then I choose any values in Prompt, they are all really fast.

Lenovo G550 2958 Recovery Disk

Hi,
Can any provide a recovery disk for a Lenovo G550 2958 with Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit or alternatively be able to tell me the original C and D drive partition sizes for the 149GB version?
Typical resize of partitions error of judgement - will never make this mistake again.
Failing that I will just merge all partitions, be done with it and just re-install an OS.
Just looking for any easy way out.
Many thanks.

you should be able to order recovery discs by calling lenovo support line. call them again and tell ( again ) you want to order recovery discs. post back the results and we'll try to help you to solve your issue.
ps: if you don't want to use one key recover function, i can assist you to download legal windows 7 iso so you can perform clean windows installation by using your serial number.

PCIe Slot on Lenovo G550 2958 95Q

I've recently bought a Lenovo G550 2958 95Q, which ships with integrated graphics. However, I need a more powerful GPU for graphics applications. So I was wondering if there are some PCIe slots on this Laptop that I could utilize to upgrade my GPU.
Are there ?
Thanks in advance,
Sunny

Note : Lenovo G550 2958 H2Q had dedicated Graphics, and they are pretty much similar, only for the GPU. So does that mean that the 95Q is nothing but the h2q, only that the GPU's been removed?

G550 2958 Sound Problem

I just got my laptop back from the repair center where they replaced the mobo, suddenly after a few hours of use the sound acts up.
It becomes fuzzy and distorted, and sometimes it reverts back to normal at random..
After several tries with different drivers, I decided to tak drastic measures in hand and clean the partition and give it a fresh install to windows 7
Now the speakers are OK, but there appear to be something wrong with the mini jack now.
There is no sound coming out, and tested it with different headphones.
Installing the latest conexant driver from Lenovo's driverpage just makes windows unable to even recognize that a headphone is plugged in.
However using older drivers makes me able to see that a headphone is plugged in, even indicating that there is sound ( by the moving green volume indicator), but no sound is coming out?
I would really dislike the idea of sending it back another 2-3 weeks, since it is such a minor problem.. Yet frustrating..
In short:
Speakers = Ok!
Mini Jack Line out = X

Hi there:
I recently (1 week ago) purchased a Lenovo G550 2958 (Intel Dual Core, Windows 7) laptop. I use Skype and other messenger services to talk to my family. I had also purchased a top of the line Logitech Headset with two prongs to connect to the front of the laptop.
The problem is that this headset is not being recognized by the windows. I have checked many blogs and forums to fix the issue, but, no solution. So, basically even when I have the headset plugged, the laptop uses Connexant built in microphone with very poor quality and fade-ins and outs of sound.
Could someone please help me? When I am in Control Panel>Hardware and Sounds>Manage Audio Devices, I only see built-in speakers and microphone. I have also checked to see if the Show Disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices are checked in.
Nothing would work. PLEASE HELP!
Shams!

Requesting Lenovo G550 2958 H2Q Recovery Disk

Hello,
My Lenovo G550 2958 H2Q switches off frequently and on reboot asks for recovery options. The 'Repair Disk Windows 7 32 bit' was used to recover the disk image. Contacting the Lenovo Support didn't help as they try to throw ball in others court. When the service provider was personally approached at Chennai, he informed his inability to provide a Recovery Disk or to recover to factory default due to software not available for my model. Now the repair disk has got corrupted or damaged.
What do I do now? Continue operating on Safe mode due to the inefficiency of LENOVO staff!
Can anyone please help me in this forum by mailing me the disk- I promise to bear the cost. Thanks.

you should be able to order recovery discs by calling lenovo support line. call them again and tell ( again ) you want to order recovery discs. post back the results and we'll try to help you to solve your issue.
ps: if you don't want to use one key recover function, i can assist you to download legal windows 7 iso so you can perform clean windows installation by using your serial number.

G550 Model 2958 OS replacement disc?

I have a G550 model 2958 laptop that the hard drive went bad in. I had made a recovery disc, but found out too late that the recovery disc was corrupt and would not work. I am wondering if there is a way to obtain a recovery CD or DVD so that I can get the laptop running again? It was running Win 7 Home Premium and I have the product key on the bottom of the laptop. Thank you ahead of time for any help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello and welcome,
The easiest way to go is to call support and order recovery media. There's usually a charge for this, although you might (politely) argue that you did your due dilligence - made your own media - but that it failed.

Another way to go is to download a Win 7 HP ISO and burn to DVD. Install and activate using your existing key. You'll probably have to use the automated phone activation system. You'll also have to install the Lenovo drivers and software by hand.

G550 2958 battery burning hot in hibernate?

I've had my G550 2958 since late October. Been thrilled overall.
Today, after the machine went into hibernate, it began chirping quietly at ~1 minute intervals. When I felt it in my laptop bag, the battery was searing hot.
After getting it home, it wouldn't boot. Finally, after letting it cool and plugging it in to AC, it started up. Battery was completely depleted. The machine had only been in hibernate for two hours, so I was surprised.
I've had battery woes before on much older machines. I'm quite concerned that this would be happening so early.
Should I apply my warranty and shoot for new parts? Rather worried.
Any advice much appreciated.

Hmmm, so my efforts to call were met with:
1) A 30-minute hold time culminating in a dead line.
2) Another epic hold with no response.
Is there a time to call when they're more prone to pick up?

G550 2958 - No mute key

I bought a new G550-2958 laptop.. There is no mute key in that laptop..
Is there any option to configure a key for mute ?

specific models for g550.
can you check your user manual for function keys.
even if you don't have, you can use windows volume control to mute/unmute.
