Disable touchpad under Win 8.1 on G580

Starting with Win 8.1, there is no Lenovo driver for the Elan touchpad. It's provided directly by the Win 8.1 OS.
Now, in previous OS, I could deactivate easily the touchpad, by entering in Mouse applet from Control Panel. Now, this procedure isn't available. More than that, in PC settings>PC and devices there is a Mouse and touchpad option, but not sliders for On/Off as should be.
So, how can we disable the touchpad?

Hi Gdvlad,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I’m sorry to hear that the Touchpad is not disabling after updating to Windows 8.1. Hence, I suggest you to press Fn+F6 together to disable the Touchpad. If this is not working, the Fn key features works only when the LEM (Lenovo Energy Management) in your computer and let me know the findings. Below is the link to download the exact LEM for the computer:
Lenovo Energy Management for Windows 8.1 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Hope to hear back soon
Best Regards
Shiva Kumar

  • No sound on Audigy 2 ZS under Win XP, under Linux

    Hi,
    I have an Audigy 2 ZS installed on my AMD 64 3500+, Board Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe (BIOS 0). I first installed Win XP, Sound drivers and everything worked fine, then installed SUSE Linux 9.3 (x64-Version), and everything was fine too. After a while, under Win XP the sound card stopped working. I don't remember what I changed in my config, but I couldn't get it working again under XP. Under Linux everything is still ok.
    I even reinstalled XP, and still there's no sound. Strange thing is, that the drivers install perfectly and everything on the system seems to be ok, but there's no sound neither on digital-out nor analog.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    I tried both, disabling, enabling.
    Currently there's a digital sound system with external decoder connected to it (Creative Soundworks DTT3500 Digital), as well a 5. analog Headphone, so all jacks execept line in are connected. Headphones and sound system is ok, I tested that on other PCs.

  • Airport Utility SW rel. 5.5 does not recognize AE under WIN 7

    Hi everybody,
    I have an issue using AE utility SW under WIN 7. Yesterday I bought an Airport Extreme. Connecting it in my network is working fine. AE is coming up and will stay with flashing amber. Internet connection is fine, so I can connect to the web. I did install Airport utility SW rel 5.5 from disk. It runs fine, entry page shows me AE with MAC address. Trying to connect and start configuration it will show window `searching for apple mobile devices` and will end with error message Code -4 - no network connection. I tried is with antivirus disabled, FW off, still not able to start configuration?
    Any help highly appreciated. Thanks!!!

    Just one more: did install AE utility SW also on a Win XP workstation, same issue, AE utility SW does not recognice AE device. I´m starting to believe the HW is maybe root cause.

  • KT3 sudden reboot under WIN XP

    I just finished building my machine:
    But it has a problem.  I installed two OS, this machine  can work very well under WIN ME. But  under WIN XP, it used to reboot suddenly when I was working on it. I have tried to change all the drivers (VIA 4 in 1, Video driver). But there is no any change. What can I do?
    KT3 ultra 2 KT333
    XP 1800+
    256MB PC2100 DDR
    ATI Radeon 7000
    CASE POWER 300 W

    I used to have a similar problem with my ASUS-board and Win2k (Reason why I bought my KT3 Ultra ). Did it say something like STOP ERROR 0005a ??
    That usually happens with some dodgy device driver or card that doesn't like interrupt sharing: on the ASUS it was the Soundblaster Live!. Browsing in Internet Explorer would instantly BSOD my machine. After pulling the Soundblaster out everything works OK now (after driving me crazy for about a year  ;( .
    So I'd suggest you pull out all cards and disable internal stuff you don't need immediately.
    Try to do a clean install of XP and see if it is working stable and then try to add things one by one.
    Also you can see in the device manager / view by connection what devices are sharing IRQ's. Maybe something wrong there?
    Try to put cards in other slots: AGP and slot1 share an interrupt, so do slot 2 and slot 5. Slot 3 shares with USB3 and Slot 4 shares with RAID.
    Good luck, Bart

  • How do you grey out/disable fields under a radio button if another radio button is selected in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

    How do you grey out/disable fields under a radio button if another radio button is selected in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
    I’m creating a form where the user has three options to make a payment.
    1. charge to my credit card
    2. charge associated costs to bank account
    3. By cheque or money order
    My Problem is, under each option, there are required fields that has to be filled out. So if the user picks the first option, charge to my credit card, they would fill out the required fields (credit card number, expiration date etc.). But when they click submit button to submit the form, it won’t let them, because there are required fields under the second option. Also, I have the radio buttons for the three options setup so that if the user holds the shift key and clicks a radio button, it unchecks it. So what I'm trying to do is this: If the user selects the radio button for option 1, the other two options are greyed out/disabled. And if the user holds down the shift key and clicks radio button for option one again, it unchecks the radio button and the other two options are available again. Is there a way to grey out or disable the two other payment options when the other one is picked. I’m assuming I will have to use javascript, but what would the coding be and which field do I write it under?
    Thanks in advance guys

    You will have to use custom JavaScript to access the various properties of the field object.
    The radio button group has a value. When no button is selected that value is "Off". When an individual button has been selected the value for the group will be the option or export value for that individual button.
    Once you have determined the button selected, then you will know the form fields that need to be made required. You use JavaScript to access those fields and change the "read only" property to false, and set the "required" property to true. For the fields associated with the other options, those fields should be reset, made read only, and have the "required" property set to false.
    Disabling (graying-out) Form Fields
    >> Also, I have the radio buttons for the three options setup so that if the user holds the shift key and clicks a radio button, it unchecks it.
    Radio button in a PDF do not work that way. Only check boxes can be unchecked by clicking on one that has been checked.
    If you plan the coding for the Mouse UP action to test for all possible options and code for each of those options you should have what you want.
    If you want actual code you need to provide a lot more details.
    It is even possible to perform some credit card and bank routing number validations with JavaScript and some check digit formulas.

  • Error on installing iTunes under Win 8

    Error on installing iTunes under Win 8
    I have recently upgraded to Win 8.  When installing iTunes the following error shows:
    "An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32",version"8.0.50727.4053.publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b 9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="amd64". Please refer to Help and Support for more information HRESULT:0x80073715.
    I am running the ITunes x64 install.  I have installed the V++ redistributable with no change in result.
    I have subsequently downloaded and manually installed via the Apple Software update program iTunes.  However this does not allow my iPad to be connected as it is not the x64 version.

    After spending an entire day on this issue, I figured out something that worked.  After installing Windows 8 (64-bit) then Visual Studio 2012 (or 2013) then the latest 64-bit iTunes app, I got the 0x80073715 error.
    What finally worked for me was:
    1) Get all the Windows updates and hotfixes - especially the ones for Visual Studio.
    2) Go to http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14431 and download the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update"
    3) Only install vcredist_x64.exe.
    After running these steps, I was able to completely install iTunes on my Windows 8 64-bit instance. 
    Hope this helps.

  • PSE 7.0 Invalid Serial Number under Win 8.1

    Moved from a Dell PC running Win XP SP3 to an HP with an 3.80 GHz AMD 6200 6 core processor, 10 Gb RAM running Win 8.1. Had installed PSE 7.0 four or five years ago on the Dell - it meets my limited needs and I don't really want to upgrade. I re-installed PSE 7.0 (from the Adobe download site) and registered the product on Adobe.com. However, the program refuses to accept the serial number, claiming it is "not valid." Tried Adobe chat and Manoj Kumar confirmed the serial number was valid. However, he then stated that PSE 7.0 is not supported on Win 8.1 and he is consequently unable to assist further. Since the program works fine other than for not accepting a valid serial number, I don't see that Win 8.1 is an issue. Any thoughts? Is it helpful to copy any applicable files from the old computer?  

    Having searched for similar issues with other PSE users, it is apparent Adobe does not intend to respond - none of the numerous questions on serial numbers have received a response. I found the answer to my question, but the solution will not help anyone who can't locate their original installation disks.
    There is an apparent difference in the serial numbers that are issued on-line during product downloads and those that are printed on the box / disk sleeve. I managed to dig up the six year old install disk and initiated setup.The first pop up box requests a serial number and I entered my original number. The installation proceed without incident, other than requesting a file update which I obtained from Adobe downloads. The serial number which was rejected when downloading a copy of PSE 7.0 from Adobe works just fine in the identical disk based install.
    And, a note in passing to "Manjo Kumar:" PSE 7.0 runs just fine under Win 8.1. Please stop using the excuse that Win 8.1 is not supported and give users the real answer: "If you download a copy, you need a downloaded serial number. If you originally installed from disk, you need to re-install from disk. A disk based serial number won't work on a download copy."
    Short sighted attempt by Adobe to force users to purchase another copy of previously installed software.

  • FFMPEG screencast is not working for WoW under Wine (AMD Catalyst)

    Hi all. I'm trying to record game video using ffmpeg, but each time when I actually switch my focus to the game window, the picture freezes. Here is the example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4kfKpgcTAE This is World of Warcraft running under wine. I use AMD Catalyst beta-driver from the unofficial repository (mentioned here) on x64 system (lib32-catalyst-utils also installed).
    I tried this:
    ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 30 -i :0.0 -f alsa -i hw:0,0 -acodec flac -vcodec ffvhuff test.mkv (from wiki)
    and some variations I found over the Internet:
    ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 30 -i :0.0 -f alsa -i hw:0,0 -acodec flac -vcodec ffvhuff test.mkv
    None of them worked.
    I guess it's due to driver, because when I tried recordMyDesktop tool a few days ago with xf86-video-ati driver it recorded wideo. But when I switched to proprietary drider, both ffmpeg and recordMyDesktop are not working. I'm not going to change video driver because it's performance in video-games, so I'm wondering if there is any solution to my problem (except windowed-mode!).
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I had similar problems when trying to record OpenGL games with FFMpeg CLI. I use the catalyst-test drivers for my AMD HD 6870.
    You could try downloading SimpleScreenRecorder via yaourt; get both, including the lib32-simplescreenrecorder.
    There will be some conflicts, but choosing to replace some files hasn't caused any problems.
    Make sure you have both  lib32-libpulse and lib32-alsa-plugins installed (pacman).
    Once everything is in set, open SSR (SimpleScreenRecorder); set audio input to:
    - Record Microphone
    - Backend: PulseAudio
    - Source: Monitor of Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
    I chose to output as MKV ; H.264 ; MP3 @128
    Select Start Recording and fire up WoW. I was able to playback the game-play video (full screen 1920x1080) with audio.
    You may need different settings from what I have, notably the audio, but it should record in full screen mode.
    Good luck !

  • [SOLVED] Steam fails to run under Wine

    Hello,
    Recent Ubuntu -> Arch user here, so go easy on me!
    I run Steam under Wine. Once it logs in, the main and update news windows appear, and so do '$FRIEND is currently playing $GAME' boxes. That's all fine, until Steam completely dies/disappears a second or two later. It looks like it just can't find a load of necessary libraries; I know the files don't exist, but should they? If not, why is Wine looking for them?
    As far as I know, all Wine dependencies (incl. optional) are installed. The Gecko extension too. I searched far and wide and installed whatever lib32 (including lib32-catalyst-utils) packages I could find in relation to Wine problems. The 64-bit Catalyst drivers are installed and working.
    I did follow the wiki and I did search on Google, these forums and the bug tracker, but nothing has worked.

  • [NOOB warning] Getting Java to install under wine

    Having junked windows, I find myself in need of java under wine, but cannot get any version recognized. I have Fedora Core 5, wine-0.9.24, and mail from the Irish Revenue to read, which needs java to log in. I have jre1.5.0_09 showing in the wine uninstaller, and j2se-1.42_01. The about:plugins in Seamonkey (under wine) shows java capability. But when I try to install the Irish Revenue software, or run java executables, it just spews errors and dies
    Irish Revenue offline Software http://www.ros.ie/PublisherServlet/info/install
    does this::
    cmd: "C:\windows\temp\I1166476762\Windows\resource\jre\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms16777216 -Xmx50331648 -classpath "C:\windows\temp\I1166476762\InstallerData\IAClasses.zip;C:\windows\temp\I1166476762\Windows\resource\jdglue.zip; (snip)
    IAClasses.zip is not unarchived.
    Trying to log in without the software shows that the java engine is not recognized :-). The software seems to be a java install, with it's own java engine creating a unique directory each time and using that engine to run the install. All this is way over my head. Any ideas for me?

    I could be wrong, but nothing I find says Java will Run in Wine. See
