Autodesk Revit on Yoga 3 Pro with Windows 8.1 not working

I have just started working with my new Yoga 3 PRO with Windows 8.1, and have found that it has compatibility problems with Autodesk Revit (2014 & 2015).  This is perhaps a graphic driver issue.
Does anyone know of any solutions/updates that will resolve this? Or a way to communcate this back to Lenovo?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have been running Revit 2014 very successfully for months now - There is
probably a limit to the size of projects that will run efficiently on 8GB
of RAM, but most small/medium size project will be fine.
I love it!

    This is not a Mac/Apple issue.  You need to contact the seller and ask where the Windows XP product key is.

  • DaRT with Windows 8.1 not working on some machines

    Problem: x64 bit DaRT8/801/8.1 not recognizing the OS and utlities are greyed out/unavailable on some machines.
    System: Windows 8.1 x64
    Steps taken:
    Tried different DaRT toolset versions, set BIOS SATA operation to different modes, tried both UEFI and Legacy mode secure boot mode off/on, created the DaRT image with Windows 8 installation media and Windows 8.1, tested the DaRT boot iso on Virtual Machines
    and it worked, all the utilities available.
    Eventually gave up and booted into MiniXP from Hirens boot CD and reset the local account password with NTpass tool.
    Why would DaRT work on some machines and not on others?

    How was the SATA configured originally? If it was configured for RAID/AHCI and the DaRT disk does not have the RAID/AHCI driver the operating system may not be detectable, even if the mode is changed in the firmware.

  • Zen touch, crashing with Windows XP professional, not working with Windows media pla

    i will start with an apology if someone has posted this up before i have just had a quick look and could not see any think about this.
    if i turn my computer on with out running any other programs and connect the zen touch the computer automatically turn on the zen touch media player program. this work's fine as long as no other programs are running.
    i have tried to work the zen touch with Windows media player but this dose not work and the computer crashes every time.
    i have window xp professional and have all up dates from Windows. my computer is very new and has more then enough memory and ram.
    please can you help. i am not to happy with the zen touch computer program and would like to know how to fix this problem.
    thank you for your help
    Rob the monkey

    I wonder if there are problems here associated with the use of the zen touch on SP2 machines. Interestingly I cannot transfer music from my PC to my Zen 20gb on a SP2 machine but I can do so on my sisters machine which has got SP. Obviously having the lastest firmware is a good idea though but I believe there are issues associated with SP2 and as you say you have all the latest updates to windows perhaps the problem lies there. Sorry if this doesn't help you at all

  • Yoga Pro 3 - Windows 10 - battery not charging

    Hi  I upgraded to Windows 10 and ever since then my laptop battery is not charging. I am a computer illiterate and travelling at the moment so can not even seek my IT departments help. The problem is that the battery shows 1% charge and when connected it to AC the laptop works well - as soon as I disconnected, it goes into hibernate. The symbol for AC connection does show so the laptop is detecting the charger. Along with this I keep on getting a battery calibration suggestion and says that I have not calibrated my battery in a long long time - although I do it every time it shows up. So I dont know what that is. Before the Windows 10 upgrade, my laptop on a 100% charge was giving me up to 6 hours of usage so I doubt there's anything wrong with the battery physically.  Would appreciate an experts advice on this. Please speak to me as you would to a 4 year old as like I said I'm completely computer illiterate!  Thanks & Regards

  • Remote disc sharing with windows 7 pc not working

    I bought Photoshop Elements to put on my MacBook Air. Since I could get a better price from Amazon than Adobe, I ordered the cd version and recieved it in the mail. I was planning to either use a product key to download it or use remote disc sharing. Unfortunately, Adobe doesn't let you download the software with a product key without paying $80 for it. So that leaves me with using remote disc sharing, but that doesn't seem to be working, either. When I open Finder, I can connect to my Windows 7 PC no problem. But when I click on Remote Disc, nothing is there. It is just blank white; no computers or files are available. I tried using other cd's to see if it was a problem with Photoshop, but nothing works. I also reinstalled the Remote Disc software on my PC several times and have clearly activated it. I really don't want to pay $50 to call Apple, only to have them tell me that I need to pay to download Photoshop online. Also, since I already opened the Photoshop box, I won't be able to get hardly anything for it on eBay. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Note: These types of discs are not supported by DVD or CD sharing

  • Ideapad Yoga 11 with Windows RT - Issues

    Got my orange Yoga 11 with Windows RT a few days ago here in the UK, and I have to say that initial impressions are very good. No fan at all, barely gets wam, switches on from connected standby almost instantly, and battery life is really impressive. Build quality seems solid - no peeling paintwork, and keyboard is securely fastened, screen is great quality, there's some backlight bleed on the right side, but only visible when at 100% against a black background (i.e. never). There's a bit more flex and 'give' in the screen than I expected, but nothing I can't live with. Wifi signal is also strong and connections don't drop like others are seeing with the Yoga 13.
    So, Windows RT ... still getting used to it, but here are some initial niggles:  there only appears to be one Lenovo RT settings app available in the Store, and it's fairly useless, since all it does is provide a switch to lock/unlock keyboard in different orientations (why?). No Lenovo drivers are available from here either, I guess these all come from Windows Update for the RT model instead?
    The problems I'm having stem from not being able to tweak some system & hardware settings properly because of the above and the need to rely on stock driiver configs, specifically:
    - Keyboard: it can be quite sluggish, and doesn't register repeat letters very well (like in 'tell' or 'soon') at my typing speed. I've never experienced this with any keyboard, nevermind a Lenovo one. The stock keyboard config under Control Panel does nothing to help this - changing the two options for Repeat delay/Repeat rate just make it worse. This is quite annoying, as I really have to slow down my typing speed to get any work done. It would currently be my no. 1 reason for returning it, depending on how I get on with it this week.
    - Touchpad: no options are available to configure it that I can find. No tweaking multi-touch, like 2-finger scroll direction (which is reversed from the normal setting). It can also be very sluggish to respond sometimes, especially for pinch to zoom and similar gestures.
    - Bluetooth: allthough I can pair with e.g. Jamboxes fine enough, the connection is dreadful - constantly skipping and dropping out with any audio source, basically unusable.  The Jamboxes work fine with every other device I own. Again no settings I can tweak here beyond the installation options, and no way to debug the problem.
    Any help or advice with these niggles would be much appreciated, especially the keyboard issue.

    Just to add a few more passing thoughts to this monlogue for anyone who may be thinking of buying this model instead of the 13. 
    When it comes to Windows RT I'm finding myself more surprised every day by what I *can* rather than *can't* do with it.  Partly this is because I thought it would be something closer to a gimped Android or iOS experience.  Here are some things I didn't really expect to be available or usable, and that compare very well to those other OSes:
    - Remote Desktop (& RemoteApps): this really works very nicely, so far if I need quick access to a non-RT app it's a doddle to remote login to a W7 machine. I was expecting this to be too slow to be practical, but actually it's very smooth, and no need to install a separate app (although the Store has a Metro version to complement the desktop UI).
    - Windows Firewall with Advanced Security: I was expecting something dumbed-down, but this is the fully monty, completely configurable when you need it, otherwise less in your face than with W7. The same goes for Windows Defender, also included as standard.
    - Local Group Policy: I'm still surprised this is included, given that it otherwise only comes with W8 Pro.
    - Bitlocker: encrypts your drive by default OOB, no need to manage it at all.
    - Network browsing & sharing: really it's just a doddle to set up, using HomeGroup or just browsing the local network, access to all your network files OOB without installing any apps.
    - PlayTo: again, painless to set up and use, streaming all your media to DLNA devices.
    - Flash support, works just fine, and easy enough to add 'supported' sites to the list.
    - Explorer / File History / Disk management, really the whole suite is there without sandboxing or more apps needed for handling basic tasks.  So refreshing after iOS especially.
    - Admin tools / Powershell: the list of is impressive - full Task Manager, Event Viewer & Performance Monitor all included - and I was delighted to find Powershell in there too, especially since it's finally integrated into Explorer properly. Such a great, under-rated utility!
    - Media support: although I do miss a desktop media player with previews in Explorer, and better codec management, I was surprised by how quickly devs are stepping up to support different media types. Free apps already support mkvs and the like, and a VLC port is planned. I'm optimistic that this will get better.
    So basically, once you get past the point of accepting that you can't install legacy desktop programs or drivers, it's pretty much a solid Windows experience. I think the keyboard & typing speed is now my only major issue ... but I've almost convinced myself I can live with it so probably won't be returning it.
    Thanks for listening.

  • Appcrash with multitrack sessions in Audition CS6 on a MacBook Pro with Windows 7

    This is an issue with multitrack sessions different from 44100 Hz in Audition CS6 (as part of a Premium Suite CS6). While multitrack sessions with  a sampling rate of  44100 Hz works normally (as long as I use clips with 44100 Hz) any other sampling rate causes  an APPCRASH (s. below). Also with the insertion ( in a 44100 Hz multitrack session, of course) of any clip with a sampling rate different from 44100 Hz, the programme crashes in the moment it's going to generate a adapted copy for the multitrack timeline.
    Audition is installed on a MacBook Pro Retina 15" ,Mid 2014, Model 11,3, Intel Core i7 4870HQ 2,5 GHz, 16GB RAM  with  Windows 7 SP1.
    I tried all advices of the Adobe troubleshooting site and some of the community.
    Especially:
    - the simplified mode with user-defined system start
    - deactivated user account control
    - new user account
    - deactivated data execution prevention (DEP)
    Also the use of different audio interfaces affords no effect:
    - build in Cirrus Logic CS4208 with MME drivers
    - Motu UltraLight mk3 hybrid via USB with Asio drivers.
    In spite of an extensive search I can't find any similar case in the net.
    So, please, can you help me?

    I'm afraid you are right. At the worst I'm more than 50% of the audition users on a mac with windows.To solve the problem within a passable time I would like to change to the mac version of audition. But unfortunately it's impossible to use the mac version with a windows licence. And CS6 licences (mac audition) are not longer available (only at a moon rate). 
    Because of the weekend we can pass the time with the latest news of my trouble-shooting.
    The crash is not only within the multitrack session but also within the waveform view: when I try to change the sampling rate (Edit -> Convert Sample Type) the programme crashes with the same problem signature. And here it crashes with all sampling rates , including 44.1k audio files. On the other hand I can play all sampling rates within the waveform view. 
    I compared the logfile from the predecessor of the MacBook , a LG Notebook with windows vista and a working Au CS6 with the current logfile of the Mac: They are identical at the beginning and at the end (termination sequence). But after " Initializing AuScripting"  there is a "DLMS 6.0x39 FileServer startup code: 0" and the listing of a couple of codecs in the Notebook logfile - but not so in the Mac logfile.
    Also the logfile of my workstation with a working Au CS6 shows this "DLMS 6.0x39 FileServer startup code" - line. Because of the two working and one crashing computer this part of the logfile seems to be important ??

    Open your Displays system preferences.  Is there an Arrangement tab and does it show two screens?  If no Arrangement tab then your mac does not know it has two screens.  Maybe smc and pram reset will shake it free and maybe not.  Maybe there's something wrong with the connection.  Thunderbolt plugs are similar to mini-displayport plugs so make sure the plug is pushed firmly in so that essentially all the metal part disappears inside the socket.  The plugs can be a little tricky in that you need to make sure the plug is fully seated in their socket.
    If you do see two screens in the Arrangement tab then click Detect Displays and Gather Windows to get the Displays preferences of the other monitor on to your main monitor.  Check the resolution and if there is a refresh rate check that as well.

    I cant access any printers, not even the virtual printers.
    What I would do is use ProcMon to find out why that Event entry was written.  Then I imagine I would get a clue about a .dll which might be involved, which hopefully might be registerable.  Since IE9 there have been new .dll  involving printing
    which have not been reflected in any of our repair tools.  However, instead of modifying our old scripts to reflect this fact, I have been advocating, so far unsuccessfully, that Microsoft create a proper IE Repair tool, one which does not rely on such
    unreliable techniques.   E.g. a better method of repairing would be to have it done by a proper troubleshooter (an .msdt file) but so far it seems nothing has been done in that way for these symptoms (again, assuming the cause is registry corruption
    and not simple interference from now incompatible third-party programming--the fix for that would be to identify and remove the incompatibilities.)   For example.
