Ideacentre B320 No Bluetooth

I just received my B320 (wireless version, Win7 64bit) a few days ago, and so far no BT device is being recognised.
I updated the firmware and driver (I think), but I cant't find the broadcom on my device manager to see what version I have installed.
I don't have wired keyboard to change bios BT settings either.
Lenovo BT Mgr comes up fine, just to tell me I'm desconnected everytime.
Tried with other BT devices, but these aren't picked up when I try to re-install the driver version 6.4.0.1800.
Another thing, the BLUEtooth light has never been ON, but the wifi one has been continously on even though I want it off.
Is there some hardware/software switch or setting I'm missing here? (yep, I know about the BT reset button)
Any ideas please, before I send it back?
And thanks in advance.

hey spoiltforchoice,
welcome to the forums.
uninstall the bluetooth drivers and software from your unit. let windows install its own generic driver.
then, use the bluetooth connection wizard provided by windows and try to connect your device. does it work ?
later reinstall 6.4.0.1800 but set your unit to diagnostic mode via msconfig before doing so.

Bluetooth of Ideacentre B320 is missing

Hello anyone
Now, I used Ideacentre B320 all in one around 2 month. I need to connected and pairing with a bluetooth head-set. However, I did not found the bluetooth icon from anywhere in my computer. But, my bluetooth mouse and keyboard still working. Moreover, my bluetooth light at left below of monitor still lighting.
I try to solving this problem by uninstall and reinstall the bluetooth driver again. The driver show that can not install complete. I try many times by another driver but unsuccess.
I would like to ask anyone to help me fix my problem. Here is my last hope. Please, helｐ me.
Thank you very much

I have no driver CD with my computer. But, I download from internet for "blustooth driver for window 7 64 bit" and "bluetooth driver for Ideacentre b320". Both of them unsuccess installation. Then, I using automatic download via automatic download center (lenevo software). It is also not work.
What is your suggestion next?
Thank you everyone for your time.

IdeaCentre B320 - Veriface application, how can I download this?

I have just received my IdeaCentre B320 All-in-one desktop PC and am absolutely loving it!
When I was looking through the specs before I bought it they stated that one of the features of the desktop was the Veriface application. However I cannot find it on the computer and am wondering if I have to download it and where I would download it from?
Any help would be much appreciated!

I'm not sure about Veriface but, there is a Veritouch application for the B520. I have not used it yet therefore, I can't tell you how well it works.

IdeaCentre B320 black screen

My Ideacentre B320 gets a black screen on startup but I can hear Windows starting normally and when I try the TV I only get the Lenovo logo screen and nothing else. I found a post from someone with the exact same problem but with a B340. It turned out to be the scalar board on the B340 - unfortunately the B320 does not have a scalar board. Does anyone know what the equivalent would be on the B320? Any help is greatly appreciated.

from the moment you turn on your pc do you get any images?
if you are getting an image and have a usb stick about you could try a linux live cd/usb and see if its your current install of windows causing the problem http://www.porteus.org/

Disable the TV features entirely? (IdeaCentre B320)

Is there a way to disable the TV features on an IdeaCentre B320 entirely?
I work with a user who is let's just say, not computer-savvy who has a B320. She has has no need for the television functions at all, and is often confused when she accidentally activate it either as PIP or full screen, which happens a LOT more often than you might expect.
She's not satisfied with the simple path to get back to her Windows desktop, so I'm hoping there's some way to just disable the TV altogether. Can anyone think of a way to do this?

Some things yoi could try if noone comes up with a defintive answer.
Try uninstalling drivers and pull the card though have my doubts. Take away the remote and tape the tv on the side might be easier.

IdeaCentre B320 doesn't boot into windows

When I turn on my brand new IdeaCentre B320 all I get is a "No signal" message. Windows seems to boot in the background (the hard disk indicator LED flashes several times) but nevertheless I'm unable to switch to it.
The IR remote control doesn't work at all (so that I can't enter the password in the menu) and the PIP button at the side doesn't work either.
Any help would be much appreciated.

just had the same happen to me but had a small screen on the botom left of the monitor shut down, i went to get a hdmi cable plug it in hdmi out and the other end into a tv and viola in sending this from my 320e

IdeaCentre B320 - Windows 8 64bit drivers for AMD radeon HD 7450 card

I have upgraded my recently bought B320 all-in-one to Windows 8 and now have a problem with video card drivers for HD7450 graphics card. Default Win 8's driver (named something like Windows Radeon HD7400 series ) works just fine, but it have no OpenGL support and therefor I can not run some games like Minecraft. Catalyst drivers available from AMD website can not detect the video card (probably because it have lenovo-specific oem ids?), and on lenovo downloads only 32bit drivers are available for AMD cards.
Was anyone able to get catalyst drivers working on B320 with 64bit Windows 8?
May be there is a compatible lenovo desktop or all-in-one which already have those drivers? And will Lenovo release 64bit video drivers for B320 anytime soon?

Till a better idea comes along:
Don't know if you have tried this but first thing I'd do is go to control panel/system/device manager, find the devices, right click and ask for it to update the drivers. If there are new ones around they should be found.
The only drivers Lenovo offers for the b320 are 32 for some reason and they may not be the best. I had a dead card reader, downloaded their drivers, and it did no good, asked the machine to update the driver, it did and it worked. I don't know where it found the driver but it was not lenovos download page.
Hopefully they will get some updated stuff soon. The tv software is poor at best.

Ideacentre B320 Keyboard issue at start up

Hi, I have recently purchased the above computer and am really pleased with it. One annoying thing I can't seem to solve is the keyboard is not recognised at start up. I have to either delete the keyboard from the Bluetooth devices and put in another pairing code each time. It doesn't matter if I switch the keyboard off or not. The mouse is found every time. Once I have it paired it works fine and does not cut out. It is only when starting the computer that this issue starts. I am disabled the setting in power management to stop the keyboard going to sleep, it would be handy if it would wake up when starting! Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have checked the drivers and they are up to date. Thanks

hey Rustybug,
welcome to the forums,
for this you will need to borrow a wired keyboard and mouse. after getting that, uninstall the bluetooth drivers and let windows install its generic driver.
pair both your keyboard and the mouse. shutdown the unit and let it rest for about 3-5mins and the restart.
is the keyboard still having the same issue ?

IdeaCentre B320 - BIOS Auto Power Nonfunctional?

I wondered whether others had this issue, or whether people who had this issue were able to resolve it. We have a UPS system attached to a B320 that is intended to power the computer off in the event of an outage (this function works fine). I've configured the BIOS setting for "After Power Loss -> Power On". However, after testing several times, the PC fails to actually start up after power has been reconnected.
Is this an issue others have experienced? Is it a BIOS bug? Has anyone resolved this issue?

Thank you for your feedback, RMattoo.
We actually tried this (loading setup defaults) on all of the machines we ordered (4 total) and, despite multiple resets and multiple restarts, the BIOS setting fails to operate. Although the BIOS setting is "After Power Loss -> Power On," when power is restored, it sounds almost for a milisecond that the computer will power on (the lamp on the power switch flickers once, momentarily), the computer fails to actually start, unless manually switched on. This is, naturally, a major frustration.
Any other ideas?

Ideacentre B320

Hi, could someone please advise or recommend a suitable pen/stylus for the B320. It does have the multi touch screen.
cheers

It is what is called a capacitive type touchscreen or at least capacitive stylus work well on it and the normal stylus do not.
Just go to Amazon.com and search for capacitive stylus and numerous units will come up. I have one and have tried it on two different touchscreens and usually fall back to using my finger.

Ideacentre B320 display problem

I'm suffering from a display problem, and cannot figure if it's a software or hardware issue... I'm on Win7 64bit. Here are the symptoms:
1) For a while now, intermittently the screen would go grey (or some sort of a messed up pattern of rgb pixels) and I would have to power down forcefully. The frequency of this has gone up very much in the recent weeks
2) When the machine freezes, I can still hear the music playing, and Windows continues to do whatever it was doing before
3) Recently (I'm guessing after a Windows update), I wasn't able to boot into normal mode anymore. It would show the Windows splash screen, then before the login screen appears it would just go black and freeze. Leaving it for a long time doesn't lead to recovery
4) To try and fix this, I've updated the ATI driver to the latest version, which didn't work so progressively tried every version between the11.6 and 10.3 (4?) which was the default when the machine was purchased. No luck there. I've also flashed the bios and that didn't help either
5) I can boot into safe mode, so I disabled amdkmdap using sysinternal's autoruns.exe, which meant that I can boot into normal mode, but it woud fall back onto Windows' vga driver (1400x1050 only!)
6) Now, even in the low res mode, almost daily the grey screen freezing would happen and I would have to reboot. Tapping the power button allows the shutdown dialog to come up (I'm guessing), and pressing enter would shut down the machine then.
There's an awful lot of posts on the internet regarding people having issues with ATI HD6450 and similar category cards, some of which sound similar to my case. They too experienced the freezing problem and reverting or upgrading the drivers had no effect (many even reinstalled windows completely). It sounds like though, the problem is software in origin at a guess.
On the other hand, the machine is now 3-4 years old and I could imagine that the GPU or graphics memory might have suffered wear and tear -- emailing Lenovo support took a week to get a response, the only thing they asked was whether my warranty is still active (after that it's been a complete silence) are they usually this terrible?
The last thing is, when the problem first occurred I booted using a linux live CD and it was all fine, at full resolution graphics. I haven't repeated this experiment since it takes quite a while to boot from a CD... but suggested that the hardware is intact. In fact, by messing about with the drivers I was able to boot into Windows normal mode and operate for 1-2 days, after which the grey freeze happened again. I haven't been able to get back into that since.
Here is my question: Is there a way to find out whether it's software or hardware that's at fault? If it turns out to be hardware, what are my options at replacements? The GPU is soldered onto the motherboard, so do I have to replace the whole thing? If it's a software issue, would restoring to factory default state fix this issue, given that an unknown update could cause the same issue at any time... This is the last time I will buy an AIO without removable everything.

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
Probably a good test of the hardware is use the Linux Live CD that you used earlier. If the graphics are still good when using the Live CD then your monitor and GPU are fine.
If the hardware checks out Ok then I suspect you have a driver problem. Try using a driver cleaner to fully uninstall the ATI driver since bit and pieces left over from previous driver installs can cause problems. The link below is for a free and highly recommended utility for cleaning the system of the graphic drivers. After the clean up I would try installing the original driver that came with your system.

Hi memopr and welcome to the community,
It sounds like Windows 8 installed itself on the whole drive, or it at least messed up the partitions.
The only way I know to get it back to factory settings at this point is with a set of restore discs.
If you didn't burn a set before you installed Windows 8, then you'll need to make a call to service and get yourself a set of restore discs.

IdeaCentre B320 Win 8 64bit

In the last few days, I have had trouble when booting up. The Windows logo comes on but instead of going on to the log in screen, the screen just goes black although I can see that the backlight is on. I wait for sveral minutes but nothing so I power off using the power button. Usually when I try to reboot, the pc comes on, but today, Windows had to restore because of a problem. I haven't done or installed anything (honest!. It seems that the problem may be getting progressively worse.
I have downloaded the Lenovo Solution Center Program and performed a scan but no problems were found. Any suggestions?

hi elliotsdad,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Can you try to:
1. Boot into Safe Mode and see iif the problem reoccurs.
2. If the unit is ok on Safe Mode, there's probably a startup program that's causing the delay, try to perform a clean boot.
3. Update your display driver below:
AMD VGA Driver
Windows 8 32bit / 64bit
h1100433.exe
172 MB
Let me know your findings
Cheers

Ideacentre B320 performance issues

Hi,
My All-in-one system has been performing very poorly for past few months. following are few of the observations
* booting time has slowed down
* opening of any url (via chrome) is very slow, at times it doesn't open (when logged in with a specific user)
* Overall performance is slow, picutre browsing, starting any media player...
As i did not renew the McAfee AV , i suspect this could be the reason, with some new virus in the system.
I can do the following.
* Install the latest AV and the issues get resolved.
* With new AV, issues are still there. get the system formatted. However, once i format the system, i do not have the Win-7 s/w on any CD (have misplaced whatever CD's were provided in the pack). Do i need to buy MS Win-7 or is there a way that i can get original s/w without purchasing with the fact the Lenovo had provided the s/w with the system.
Any help/comments to the above situation would be appreciated.
Regards,
Nagendra.

to check your system use spybot search and destroy for malware and other things https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCEQFjAA&url=h...
then install something like microsoft security software https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CDEQFjAA... or bitdefender http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/solutions/free.html(what i use) run and see if that finds anything
after that if there is still something there goto add and remove/ uninstall and uninstall any toolbars and programs that are there you dont use
if still no joy
click start then run
type msconfig
click startup
disable all
reboot and test if it works fine it is still a program
goback to msconfig - startup
turn a couple of things on the reboot and test do this until you find the program that is causing the problem and remove it

B320 bluetooth issue

Hello,
I have an IdeaCentre B320 with Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Both work just fine. I'm trying to add a Bluetooth wireless speaker (Soulmate) and am having the hardest time. I have no idea where to go to get my computer to recognize a new device.
When I click the start menu and type "Bluetooth" in the search box, the icon comes up, but nothing at all happens when I click it. When I'm in Control Panel, if I type Bluetooth in the search box, nothing comes up. No settings, no hints. I can click "add device" but it doesn't find the Soulmate.
I know I have the latest drivers (tried to install from Lenovo site and it told me upon install that my drivers were up to date). I tried to download update from Broadcom - when I try to install, I keep getting the message "please plug in or turn on your Bluetooth device." It can't find my computer. Yet, I KNOW the Bluetooth is working- hence the functioning keyboard and mouse, and illuminated symbol on the monitor!
What am I missing?!
Thank you!

Try contol panel/devices and printers and see if anything is showing there. Click Add a Device and see if it helps. I will search for the thread, there was a driver but don't remember if it was a general one or brand speciific.
You might see if your device is showing up in control panel/device manager.
You might find a driver here or some info that would help you: http://www.jabra.com/Products/Speakers/JABRA_SOLEMATE/Jabra_SOLEMATE_Black?gclid=CLqHjaaVlrgCFUVyQgo...
