G700 Wi-Fi driver problem - Win 7

Hi all!
Im experiencing a weird problem with this model. I' ve installed Windows 7. Everything works except wireless. I've downloaded drivers from lenovo support site but they don't work. It starts installation and then a black CMD screen shows up and i just stops. I can't turn wifi on with fn buttons. I also tried to enable/disable wireless in BIOS, but still nothing. There is an unknown device showing up in device manager. It's probably wireless.
What to do? How to solve this? Anyone experiencing simillar problems? Help please.

Hi,
http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles/wlan120w7.exe
Please use this driver but:
Run this execute and it will extract the driver at the following location:
"c:\drivers"
Install thedriver via the "device manager" of Windows by using the Option "Update Driver Software".
Link to image 1
At the following menu you have to choose the option "Brwose my computer for driver software".
Link to image 2
In the following screen you have to enter the directory for the driver:
Link to image 3
Be sure to enable the option "Include subfolders"
By this way it works on my Computer.

D20 (4158-48G) RAID driver -problem / Win 7

Hello,
I've created an array (RAID1) using two identical 500GB hd's. Marvell's raid bios (?) gives me the long awaited info that the RAID1 is online and ready to be used. The problem is with Win 7.
I've downloaded "drivers" that I need from here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-73716
When I boot my system, Win 7 tells me that RAID driver is not installed correctly. When I go to the device manager and try to update the driver from specific location W7 doesn't find the drivers at all.
No luck.
Getting pissed off
And as much as I have tried to use google and this forum to solve my problem - i'm starting to feel I'm all alone with this problem (
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks!
the problem was that I followed too blindly Lenovos homepage and assumed that the right driver was located where I thought It should be.
I went to Support -> ThinkBrand -> Quick Path
Typed my model D20's model number (4158-48G)
Chose a link "Downloads & drivers"
From "Refine results" -box I chose "RAID" - and it only gave intel Matrix driver support..
The correct one was found from here:

T60p Driver Problem - Win XP Downgrade

Just downgraded to XP from Vista on my T60p (8743CTO). XP installs fine, but now I am missing the drivers for all my networking hardware so I am unable to get online to use System Update to reinstall everything else. In the Device Manager, Ethernet and Network Controllers are listed as unknown. I tried downloading all the availiable drivers from the Lenovo page, but none seem to fix the problem. What do I do?
Thanks.

Was this a "clean install" or did you use Lenovo's Rescue&Recovery downgrade disk set to install XP?
Either way, the most important part is to get the LAN (wired) working, then install System Update and let it do the rest for you (you will need Microsoft's .NET 2.0 for System Update to work!).
Right, so download the LAN drivers for the T60p from Lenovo --> here
Notice the "installation instructions" at the bottom of the page, follow the steps carefully, and you'll have a fully working wired connection. Keep in mind that the package will only decompress into a different folder on your C:\ drive, so the LAN drivers will not just install on their own. There's an extra step involved. The installation instructions on that page explain it all.
Next, download and install Microsoft's .NET Framework 2.0 from --> here
- Remember, without this, System Update will not work
Next, final step, download and install Lenovo's System Update found --> here
After installing that, you should be set. Start System Update and it will install the other drivers for your machine.
Hope this helps!

Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

Hello all,
I am having an issue with an audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I have looked at multiple forums and the Toshiba website for suitable drivers with no success. I've basically hit a wall, so hopefully someone can provide a working solution. :)
Audio device:
Device: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
Manufacturer: Intel
(Details retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)
Although a windows system labels it as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm no expert with drivers, so maybe thats a stupid question...) :)
The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) running Windows XP Professional.
I have spent hours trying to solve this so I'm hoping this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with any suggestions.
Best regards,
Alan

Hi
The sound driver is designed by Realtek!!!! So its a Realtek sound chip!
You need the Realtek sound driver and you can find it on the Toshiba European driver page as well!
You need also the SP3!
But the point is that SP3 has to be installed before sound driver!!!
If you have already installed the sound driver then remove it (uninstall).
You should also access the device manger and should remove the sound card from the device list!
Then reboot the notebook and after that install the Realtek sound driver again!!!

Windows 7 - HP Laserjet 8500 print driver problem

I have tried everything imaginable to correct this HP 8500n print driver problem with no success, please help!
I cannot correct or get rid of a reoccurring “Incompatible Print Settings” error dialog box message that repeatedly states that “There are one or more conflicting settings. One of the settings is: Output Bin: Mailbox 1, Accessory Output Bin: Not Installed”. The radio button options are “Restore my previous settings or Keep this setting, and I will change it later”. This same dialog message repeats 13 times for all the other various conflicts each time you click on printer properties to change to 2 sided printing or any other printer settings. This printer does not have any of these features attached or set into it.
I am a volunteer that manages a number of computers on our small church LAN, 2 computers operating on MS XP-SP3, 2 on MS Windows 7 Home Premium and my 2 problem computers that came pre-installed with Vista Home Premium of which I have performed an HP OEM upgrade to Window 7.
I have isolated this print driver problem to the Vista operating system and even when computers are upgraded to Windows 7 does not correct this driver error. I have also tried every possible print driver variant of the HP 8500, HP8550, PCL, PS to include the Microsoft versus HP versions with no success. In each case I get this error yet neither of the XP computers or the computers that had Windows 7 as a original operating system have no problems with their print drivers for this printer.
Yes, I have repeatedly searched and upgraded the operating system and print drivers. In desperation I have even tried to find the correctly behaving Windows 7 print driver and transfer it to these Vista upgraded to Windows 7 machines. However I could not isolate the driver location.
The only thing I can conclude is that this errant HP print driver was resident within Vista and remains resident even after a HP OEM Windows 7 upgrade. Additionally, all of these computers are configured to access this printer via its static IP address on the network. The XP computers are 32 bit, all of the Vista upgraded to Win 7 and OEM Win 7 computers are 64 bit machines all with respective OS.
Can anyone please help me correct this problem?

Hi,
Unfortunately I can't see your uploaded image yet as it is awaiting approval from HP.
From what I can see you are correct that HP does supply drivers for this printer and that the drivers for your printer are already included with Windows 7. On the machines affected, try the procedure below to see if it helps at all
Next download revo uninstaller on the link below and install it.
http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-freeware-version.php
Disconnect the printer from the PC.
Run Revo and see if it finds any HP Printer Software installed. If it does, right click the software icon and select uninstall. During the process you may be asked to delete registry entries. If you are, just select all and click delete. Do the same for any left over files and folders. Once completed, reboot the PC.
Re-connect your printer to the PC and follow the guide below.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?&objectID=c02536257
If this helps you will need to repeat the process on each of the affected machines.
Best wishes,

Lenovo Drivers Insufficient for update to 8.1 - Driver problem - H430

Lenovo Drivers Insufficient for update to 8.1 - Driver problem (USB?) - H430
my lenovo H430 is about 6 months old - worked okay with preinstalled Windows 8
After update to Windows 8.1 computer no longer seemed to work well at all, although I am unable to provide hard evidence, but clearly it was not working as smoothly as in the previous 8 version with lots of irritating little problems - including sound.
One thing that very clearly was not functioning as it had in 8 version was the USB disconnect icon. In 8 you only had to click on icon and the USB selection window would open immediately. Additionally all USB connections would be shown - back and front USB. Select the USB to be disconnected and it would be disconnected immediately (providing not in use). After update to 8.1 this was no longer the case.
In 8.1 disconnect icon no longer worked as it had done in 8. After clicking on icon there was now always a lengthy pause, followed by the sound of the computer working (whirring sound) and then after a while the USB selection window would finally open. Sometimes it was necessary to click on icon a few times to get any reaction at all. A small MP3 player I had charged up on my computer every morning (front USB) in windows 8, was always in USB list, and disconnected without problem in 8. In 8.1 it was no longer in list and only charged sporadically (would stop charging, but if I clicked on USB icon it would start charging again - although still not shown in USB list).
After about two weeks of 8.1 my screen suddenly - but only briefly - went black twice. I ran a sfc /scannow. problems were found but could not be resolved. I did a Dism /Online/Clean-Image/RestoreHealth this was reported as being successful. About two days later my computer went into blue screen BSOD - "critical-services-failure" - from which I was unable to get out of. The only option open was the Lenovo restore option. Computer was returned to factory state with los of all data.
back to Windows 8 the computer once again worked okay - no problems - and USB icon once again worked correctly (including with MP3 player).
About 2 weeks later after receiving MS messages to update to 8.1 I called Lenovo support and asked about update to drivers for 8.1.
the following list was given:
Chipset: Intel chipset Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version : 9.4.0.1022
Video: CPP2 AMD DISCRETE VGA CARD DRIVER for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 13.152
Audio: Realtek Audio Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 6.0.1.7030
LAN: Realtek Lan Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Version: 8.018.0621.2013
STORAGE: Intel RST Driver for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) - Desktop Version: 12.8.0.1016
I updated to 8.1 and then updated all the above drivers (no USB driver update was available).
The same problems as the last update to 8.1 and USB was as bad as it was in last 8.1
Some days later my computer went into blue screen BSOD once again - although this time did not stay stuck there, and quickly restarted - due to speed of restart I did not get time to read all the text and discover the cause of BSOD.
Computer is still running badly - particularly the USB icon disconnect.
Called Lenovo support but they have been no help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lenovo are failing us with the 8.1 update and the DRIVERS FOR 8.1
BSOD
all i could find was this: (probably refers to after BSOD - the restarting part after BSOD???)

I have now seen the suggestion by Tomaspoko and Brillow at http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge-S-series/Windows-8-1-update-S440-ThinkPad-black-screen-wit...
Despite the AMD driver giving an error during install at the last stage of the suggested fix, this has now yielded a working switchable graphics for my S540 for the first time with Windows 8.1. Catalyst Control Center also works for the first time, so thank you to both the above-mentioned posters for a solution that does work.
Hopefully in time AMD will release a non-broken updated AMD driver and CCC package.
Thanks again for a nice solution from this forum - the problem was driving me nuts!

Business printers and devices have driver problem

My biggest problem after installation of 10.5 is that I use my laptop in a prepress business and I lost nearly all of my print drivers. I did a rights repair and still no luck. I'm guessing that none of the high end business copier printers we have in the shop have 10.5 drivers. If so I'm kind of aggravated. Why would they make 10.5 so incompatible with IO devices. Doesn't make any sense. It's a guarantee for a ton of customer service problems.
It also hung while entering form data and I had to hard reboot it. That almost never happened with 10.4. Getting more of the spinning wheels than I would like as well. No reason for them that I can see.

Hi, I have windows 7 and just got a printer - lexmark x5495
unfortunately Windows cant find the right driver 4 the printer via windows update...
I have downloaded driver for win 7 32, 64 bit, windows vista even windows xp and non of them is good!!! :(
I was looking all over google for somebody to solve that problem and nothing!
on the lexmark and windows websites it says printer is compatible but must be something wrong with driver
btw it works 100% under win xp and it is not any printer spool problem...
can somebody help me, please
Could you be more specific when you mention none of the drivers is good? Is there any exclamation mark in device manager for the printer? And what makes you think the problem lies with the drivers and not the printer itself or the way you setup the drivers?
Suggest you to uninstall the printer drivers from device manager, next reboot your pc and ensure the printer is power on and plug in, next let windows 7 detect and assign drivers by itself instead of using the drivers downloaded.
If still no go after the above, run the drivers in xp or vista compatble mode under windows 7

Audio driver problem

I have what I think is an unusual symptom. My audio device comes and goes. When I have a device, it is a yellow Multimedia Audio Controller. Checking Device Manager tells me that I have no audio device installed. Why not? What happened to my audio device? I have not intentionally removed or disabled it, just one day it wasn't working. I visited Tech Guy and got advice from a few people and the prevailing theme seemed to be one of driver problems. So, I downloaded Realtek AC'97 Audio, attempted to install it but got a blue screen (not the BSOD) which said it was shutting me down to prevent damage to my computer and a full screen of info. It shuts down too quickly to read all of the info. Anyone out there got any ideas? I'm using a 6 year old factory refurb T43 with Win Pro.

@clairienz:
it looks, that mcq's T43 has flexing of the southbridge - that can happen to every notebook brand and model (my DELL Latitude had the same issue a couple of years ago). The USB 2.0 - message is an indicator for it.
The Lenovo audio driver in normal cases works fine with XP service pack 3, even it is an older driver.
One thing very often will be forgotten while installation:
Executing the downloaded package only extracts it to C:\DRIVERS\WIN\Audio. After that the setup.exe must be executed additionally.

Maxtor one touch III firewire 800 its connected to my Titanium G$ Powerbook I am beginning to think its just another drive failure

Computer is balky random freezes across apps. Two hard drive cleans later (their scan reveals no hard drive problems) photo shop won't work at all, magic touch mouse inoperable and their diagnoses is corrupted data? Anybody heard of this?

Computer is balky random freezes across apps. Two hard drive cleans later (their scan reveals no hard drive problems) photo shop won't work at all, magic touch mouse inoperable and their diagnoses is corrupted data? Anybody heard of this?

Well, yes, data does get corrupted sometimes.
The trick is finding what data.
By 'cleaned' are you therefor meaning that the drive has been erased and the system re-installed?
Because that's the quickest way to deal with such a situation.
Back up the system first of course,
Add back 3rd party apps one at a time in case one of them is causing the problem.

Lenovo T400 screen goes dark issue, some video driver problem

Lenovo:
Motherboard:
CPU Type: Mobile DualCore Intel Core 2 Duo P8600, 2400 MHz (9 x 267)
Motherboard Chipset: Intel Cantiga GM45
System Memory: 1992 MB (DDR3 SDRAM)
BIOS Type: Phoenix (08/19/08)
Display:
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
Video Adapter: Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family
3D Accelerator: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
Problem/Issue:
Driver problem appeard after upgrading from XP to Windows 7.
From the Device Manager I saw that ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 was not working properly and
a) I did the "update driver software." After restart the screen light was darker than usual. (This was usual if I was working from battery but I was plugged in this time. )
As I'm not the best with computers I thought my drivers might be in conflict and to prevent serious damages, I just
b) disabled ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 from device manager.
This actually resolved the dark screen problem.
c) then I went to Lenovo support site: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-72858
downloaded newest drivers for ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 (Switchable Graphics Driver)
and Intel 4500MHD (Intel GM45 Express Chip)
For some reason while installine the: Intel GM45 Display Driver (version 8.15.10.2302) gives me error:
"This Computer Does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software"
Also some problem appeard when installing the new downloaded version:
ThinkPad Switchable Graphics Driver (version 8.792.5-110424b-119200C)
d) so I went back to device manager and made an update to ATI Mobility Radeon from there.
Well, I got it working, but the screen went dark again. When I disable the driver it goes back to normal
brightness and when I enable it again, it stays normal.
I'll try to restart and see what happens

We had the excat same issue.
I could get the picuture back pressing the power button until it went to sleep and then wake it up again.
After the I went to device manager to delete all display drivers both Intel and ATI and then reboot.
doing the reboot windows found some drivers it could use.
I then installed the switchable driver from lenovo.
Now windows device manger report two display drivers:
1)
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
2)
Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family, Version, Version 8.792.5.2000, Driver manufacturer ATI Technologies Inc
So it seams the switchable ATI driver take over the Intel card and the Intel driver is not needed.
At least the problem is solved for us.
