  • Lenovo Enhanced Experience 8 and Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430

    Hi,
    My Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 is listed in the "supported W8" systems, http://shop.lenovo.com/gbweb/gb/en/learn/products/ee8/index.html
    But what is "Lenovo Enhanced Experience 8"? Should be some software available? Should be something available? So far, I got my hands over some drivers (card reader, hotkey, active protection system) and little more. Should something else be installed in the notebook to improve it's performance?
    If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

  • Thinkpad Edge E420 does not boot up and customer service does not help

    I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E420 laptop that stopped powering on all of a sudden. It was working fine till one day fine and all of a sudden, does not boot up the next morning. I have googled around and looked in Lenovo Forums and it looks like this is a common issue with motherboard on these types of laptops and that lenovo fixed some of these. Unfortunately, my laptop is out of warranty but I do see that Lenovo fixed similar problems for some laptops that are out of warranty. Please see the two threads below
    https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/thinkpad-e420-wont-start/td-p/755813
    https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/E420-motherboard-problems/td-p/667009/page/10
    So, I tried calling customer service multiple times hoping that I could get to talk to a supervisor and explain the problem. Just today, I was told I need to agree to pay $575 (which is much more than what the laptop is worth) to even talk to a supervisor. This is quite disappointing.
    If any Lenovo support staff is monitoring it, can you help here?

    Its not the motherboard even though they say it is. All they will do is replace the motherboard and it will just fail on you again. I had the exact same issue and the motherboard was replaced. Next day I used it it failed again. You need to remove the CMOS battery which is located underneath the laptop. Its in the compartment with the one screw. Remove that. Remove the battery and all power supply. Then  plug the CMOS back in and  plug in powercord. Once you have done that start up as normal. Press f1 to enter BIOS. Go to the Config tab and under "power options" disable "rapid intel start." That worked for me as a temporary solution. 
    It clearly isnt a motherboard fault as all Tech support from Lenovo claim it to be. I mean c'mon I had the exact same fault the day after my motherboard was replaced, but after removing CMOS and battery the motherboard magically starts to work?? Must be related to the W5 problem they have been having with BIOS. 
    Heres a link to another thread with others with the same problem.
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/E540-power-issue/td-p/1326979/page/9
    Let me know if this helps at all since no one from Lenovo seems to care about helping their own customers... very dissappointed with the customer service. Personally I dont think Ill ever purchase a lenovo product again after their pathetic execuse for "tech support." Anyway good luck!

    Edit /etc/sensors.d/sensors.conf and look up your exact chipset. A few chipset names are similar, so make sure the one you are editing is yours. Add the line 'set fanX_div 4' near the start of your chipset config, replacing X with the number of CPU fans your system has.
    How can one find the exact chipset name? The overall information spilled out by dmidecode is staggering.
    Later Edit:
    Accoding to http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Lm_sensors#Configuration ,the chipset name should be in the sensors output.

  • ThinkPad Edge S430: where to get keyboard key hinge replacement?

    Hi guys,
    I just broke a hinge of my S430's keyboard's key. A "regular" one. Does anybody knows where I can get a replacement? In Argentina?  (is where I'm currently) Or some place it ships to Argentina, Spain, Germany, Canada...? I didn't find any key or key hinge for these new keyboards on ebay.
    I believe it's the same one as the T430u, right?

  • Thinkpad theme icons - where to download?

    Hi I just did a clean install of my T400's Windows vista to a fresh Windows 7. I got all the usual drivers and such from Lenovo such as system update etc. I was wondering where I can download the thinkpad theme/icons that I loved so much from the vista. (e.g. the My computer, rubbish bin icons etc). I found some links from dodgy sites which I dont want to trust. Is there an official link somewhere direct from Lenovo? Cheers

    I never made recovery discs. I just backed up the Recovery partition. The two VHD's are all you really need; one is the usual System Reserved drive, the other is the usual C drive. Not sure how it works with recovery discs, though.

  • Thinkpad Edge 420 HDD to SSD

    Recently, my HDD has begun to grind to a halt on my Thinkpad Edge e420. I decided to replace the HDD to an SSD, and after many, many unsuccessful attempts to reinstall the OS via Rescue and Recovery, cloning the drive etc, I decided to install the OS onto the new SSD using a windows disk. While this seems to have worked, I now no longer have any of the preinstalled Lenovo software. This is disappointing, but also seems to have reduced the functionality of the laptop (eg the networking device is no longer recognised).
    Could anyone please recommend a method of reinstalling the Lenovo software onto this new SSD.

    Windows 7 right? Download ThinkVantage System Update, it should download most of the drivers and applicable softwares for your E420.

  • How to use Intel Rapid Start technology on my ThinkPad Edge 531 computer?

    I have a Thinkpad Edge 531 (model 6885-73G) preloaded with Windows 7 64bit. According to the appropriate user guide (see Thinkpad E531 User Guide - page 108) and chipset specifications Mobile Intel® HM77 Express this ThinkPad model supports Intel Rapid Start Technology with a special partition on the SSD M.2.Such an SSD with the specification M.2 (see MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2) I bought it and installed successfully on my ThinkPad, which can run a cache software FNet HybriDisk on.
    However, even if I proceed exactly according to the installation script by Intel, see (Intel Rapid Start Technology User Guide) or by the installation script by Lenovo community, (see Edge E330 and Intel Rapid Start), I can not put into operation Intel Rapid Start Technology on my ThinkPad, although I use the installed SSD disk with an alone partition of appropriate type (with ID type 84 on MBR) with more allocated space than the size of RAM for my ThinkPad and with the currently deployed version of BIOS (1.29) and current drivers, such is Intel (R) Rapid Storage Technology Driver version 11.1.5.1001 downloaded from the webiste of Lenovo support for this model ThinkPad Edge 531.
    Since, in my opinion, based on the above specifications declared by the manufacturer Lenovo and Intel, this ThinkPad model should support Intel Rapid Start Technology, I would like therefore to know how this technology on my ThinkPad to put into operation, because of which I also bought this ThinkPad model. Does exist for this model ThinkPad Edge 531 some specific deployment scenario of Intel Rapid Start Technology? Does anyone have any practical experience with the launch of this technology on those ThinkPad models? Can it be expected that the full support of Intel Rapid Start Technology for the ThinkPad Edge 531 will occur after the release of a new version of the BIOS or a new version of Solid State Drive Firmware Update Utility with support for MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2 published on the website of Lenovo support?
    Thanks in advance for any advice and guidance with the launch of Intel Rapid Start Technology on my ThinkPad Edge 531.

  • Thinkpad Edge E440 Random Lags, Stuttering, Latency Problem.

    Dear All, I bought Thinkpad Edge E440 almost two weeks ago. The problem is it randomly lags and stutter without reason. For example I was writing documents on Microsoft Word, plays music on foobar2000 and doing some light browsing (only few tabs) but randomly the music lags for 1-2 seconds. It doesn't skip, it lags or stutter (sorry I don't know the right term). Also sometime it took awhile to open a new tab on firefox web browser while usually it took instantly.
    Another example is I play two online games, World of Tanks (WoT in short, a tank simulation game) and Ghost Recon Phantoms (a shooting game). When I play both game, the gameplay went smooth but randomly it lags or stutter like 1 second on more, then it went smooth again and then stutter again. The game doesn't became slow (which is called FPS drop if I am not wrong), the display just stop moving and mouse/keyboard become unresponsive during the lag/stutter period. On the other hand I also played WoT on my Pentium 4 PC and it went smooth without any lags, though of course the settings is inferior to my E440 laptop (Ghost Recon Phantoms can't be played on my Pentium 4 so I won't compare it).
    Also sometimes the audio sounds 'spiky'.
    As I searched online, people said that this is called/related to Latency problem and I should use LatencyMon to check it. After using LatencyMon I found several 'culprits' which causes big latency such as NDIS.sys, ACPI.sys, ATAPORT.sys, storport.sys, etc. I also tried to disable cpu throttling, power management settings and such but the problem doesn't go away.
    I am sure that there is something wrong with my hardware because if its caused by settings such as cpu throttling, power management (which I think is software-related) then won't this happen to everybody? I mean, I asked a fellow E440 user and he said that his laptop is fine and my problems doesn't occur on him.
    I have phoned Lenovo Customer Service. I was using Windows 7 Ultimate. At first they told me to do clean reinstall and install the drivers in the order the CS give me. I did clean reinstall 4 times to try different driver and program installation sequence to see if I might find a way to fix my problem, but I found no solution (I tried Lenovo CS driver install order on the last clean reinstall). I even tried running LatencyMon after clean reinstall before installing any drivers or updates but the LatencyMon still reports big, 'unhealthy' latency.
    Lenovo CS then told me to do hardware scan on Lenovo Solution Center. There are warning on the Nvidia GT740M stress test but the CS told me that the results are good. His last solution is that I should go to a Lenovo Service Center to check for the problem there.
    I moved to Windows 8.1 to see if the problem will be solved but too bad it's not. I have ran hardware scan for 5 times, there are two times(or 3 times I forgot) that there is warning on Harddisk SMART short self-test, 2 times warning on Nvidia GT740M stress test, one time scan finished with no warning. Even so, the end result for all the tests is 'Passed'.
    I think the problem lies within my harddisk (or something related to data transfer) since when I browse my local drive in windows explorer sometimes it took a long time for the icons to load but sometime it just loads instantly. And I am not sure what that Nvidia stress test warning has to do with.
    Also I only use the stock 4GB Ram. Could this related to the problem? Though when I look at Windows 8.1 Task Manager the memory usage rarely goes above 60%.
    Last but not least. I plug a wireless mouse on my laptop which I use mostly for playing games, but in the end I switches between mouse-touchpad-mouse and so on during working too. Sometime my touchpad suddenly went unresponsive for few seconds but my mouse is still usable during that moment. Then after I move my wireless mouse, my touchpad become responsive again. Any idea why this is happening? I think this is probably because touchpad driver not perfectly compatible with Windows 8.1 as I don't recall having this trackpad issue on WIndows 7.
    Can somebody help me? Does anyone else ever had the same problem as I do?
    I am sorry for the really long explanation. Your response will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi All, sorry for being a while for a long time.
    First of all, I should say that I am not sure if my trackpad/pointing device problem is related to the lag/stutter/latency problem so I should have made two different thread instead. Sorry if anyone got confused with this.
    @rallygion, the first OS I used on this laptop was Windows 7 64bit. If I remember correctly I don't experience the trackpad/pointing device problem back then, maybe I was just forgotten tho. I am using Windows 8.1 starting sometime before I made this thread. Now the problem has gone worse, sometime the touchpad & red dot in the keyboard won't work for a whole day so I must use external mouse.
    At first I thought its compability problem with Windows 8.1 but now I think the hardware has problem too. However, the keyboard is fully functional.
    @waqs, thanks for your suggestion! Unfortunately it doesn't solve the lag/stutter/latency problem.
    @ghasan, our problem is quite similar except I didn't use the M.2 SSD. One thing I notice is the disk activity sometimes jumps to 100% when the lags happened.
    The problem doesn't lie with the laptop specification is inferior. Fyi, when I play music on foobar2000 it took few second for music to start playing (foobar says 'starting playback..') while on my pentium 4 desktop (which I still use) the music plays right after I clicked the song.
    Also, eventhough I've closed all my applications, leaving only music player and microsoft word/firefox, the music which is playing lags (randomly stops for a moment).
    The lags also happened when watching videos. I played video on Media Player Classic, turned the statistics on. There happen to be frame drops sometimes. Not framerate drop, just frame dropped. I mean, I think framerate dropping has relation with computer power while in my case the frame just randomly drops, which 'damages' the video, not slowing it down.
    I am sure that this is hardware-related problem. I am going to take my laptop to service center but not now since I am in need on my laptop now.
    I will give update later when I have gone to the service center.

  • W530: Intel Rapid Start/Smart Response tech/Lenovo Enhanced Experience

    I have W530 configured by Lenovo for RAID 0 with two HDDs.  I was wanting to install a mSATA SSD.  I've seen two Intel Technologies and the LEE 3  (listed in the subject) that you can utilize if you have an mSATA SSD.  I want to know if the two Intel techs are actually different programs or just different names for the same thing.  In this lenovo thread, they seem to be used synonymously.  However, I have found to pdf files that contain different instructions on how to set them up: here and here.  The ladder seems like it was intended for a specific motherboard; however, the intel programs downloaded are different in both pdfs.  Can anyone shed some light on whether or not these are different technologies, and if so, what the differences are. 
    Lastly, the Lenovo Enhanced Experience looks like a combination of the Intel programs.  It seems that they just slapped there name on Intels programs  Anyone know anything on that?

    Also, I was looking at the tabook.pdf and it shows the W530 uses the Mobile Intel QM77 Express Chipset.  The first pdf I posted showed that the Intel Z68 Express Chipset was required for the Intel Rapid Start tech.  is the W530 compatiable with either of the Intel Techs?

    No, they want swap the motherboard for free (I've also bough a 3 year additional warranty). I've to reinstall the Windows system to "proove" that it also not working correctly. And still not possible to destinguish between the 3 theoretical options listed below. Otherwise they will charge 380EUR + the price for the motherboard (guessing 200 EUR) which is not acceptable. Theoretically only the cause which are possible are:- Hardware problem
    - Driver problem
    - Windows OS problem I also uninstalled all graphic card drivers (Intel HD4600 and Nvidia GT740M driver in safe mode with Driver uninstaller). Rebooted. Afterwards with opened device manager to see the graphic card devices I was installing the latest driver package. Intel HD4600 driver installs well, when the Nvidia GT740M driver will be installed computer crashes instantly.https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-edge-laptops/thinkpad-edge-e540/downloads/DS039880

    2. Is there driver package for T61p with all Lenovo drivers in order not to install each of them separately after the installation of standart windows 7 (not EE)?
    You can use Lenovo system update to get all drivers easily. Windows 7 is not yet supported in system update but will be soon.

  • Thinkpad Edge e430 Not Powering Up.

    My laptop thinkpad Edge e430 is not powering up. When I plug in the AC cord the LED indicator does not turn on. I have checked the AC adapter with the multimeter and it gives 20 volt output. So the AC adapter is fine. 
    The laptop also does not power on with a fully charged batter. I have removed the HDD, Memory, Optical drive and the CMOS battery and then pressed the power button for 30 seconds. The laptop does not wake up. 
    It is quite weird as the laptop should show some kind of error So i may have an idea what is happening. 
    Discussing with people on other forums gives me an idea that the power setup of the laptop is faulty. Can some body here guide me to what the problem is and how can i fix it? 

    Hello everyone,
    THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE SPILLING WATER ON MY T400.
    I happened to spill water on purpose on my Thinkpad T400.
    I am quite young though I just removed the four of the ram screws And also removed a keyboard screw as well.
    Then, I opened the lid cover and then I removed the touchpad . Then , I also removed the keyboard . I saw that water had entered the cooling fan and I also found some water near the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor .I also found water near the hard drive and beneath the speaker guard, So I removed the silver panel from the interior of the laptop.I also removed the CD drive. I let it to dry under a FAN ( I did not use a hair dryer because it may damage the components.Then I put everything back it 3 minutes.i turned it on .it did not even power on, instead I heard 1 beep,3 beeps,3 beeps,1 beep. I surfed the internet and found that the error means that RAM is not proper or there is some issue.I again refitted the RAM the way it was before( I changed the arrangement before which caused this error).
    Then, to my surprise I saw Thinkpad on the screen and the Windows XP Operating System began to load!
    I checked whether I had connected the keyboard and mouse properly.Everything was fine.
    I LOVE MY THINKPAD.
    You may use this method, BUT please be extremely careful that you do not possess static electricity.

    Chris

  • Windows 7 Lenovo Enhanced Experience

    Hey guys,
    I just read the post on the new EE machines and was wondering whether it's just a BIOS and Software update or complete different hardware?  For instance, If I buy the new x200 Tablet with multitouch now, will I be able to upgrade  it later, to make it as fast as an Enhanced Experience machine?
