Ideapad U410 wont start - Motherboard failure?

So I purchased my Lenovo Ideapad U410 almost exactly 1 year ago. I bought it to use at college because of its slim design and lightweight. I have absolutely loved this computer up until a week ago when it unexpectedly wouldn't start. The computer was extremely hot and when I tried turning it on it cycled through 3 screens. The first was the Lenovo start screen, the second a screen with some writing on it and the third a black screen. I brought my computer into the tech people at my college and they said that my hard drives were perfectly fine, but that something was wrong with my motherboard and they didn't know what. I was told that my situation was pretty much hopeless. I've tired using the recovery button and everything, but nothing has seemed to work. Is there any hope for my computer? 
I am extremely angered and frustrated that this happened so soon after the purchase. If this is the quality of Lenovo computers then I am never purchasing another one, and I will highly recommend all of my friends and family to do the same. 
Here are the pictures of what the screen does:

I had the same problem .. I phoned Lenovo support, took it to nearest service centre and they replaced the motherboard as it was under warranty. It took several days to a week as the part needed to be shipped to them, however I got it back as good as new,
I have no complaints with the service that they provided.
You may even have an extended hardware warranty as Lenovo ship their product with flyers .. check your paperwork.
Also your consumer rights are not affected by the warranty period .. learn those and then discuss it with Lenovo support.

  • Emergency !! Major Power Failure - Publisher / Subscriber& Connection wont start...

    We have had a major outage, after power restored Publisher services wont start.
    In addition Unity connection has a corrupt database and another subscriber is screwed.
    However - first things first - I desperately need to get my publisher live.
    I have restarted it many times now -
    The GUI doesnt work and at the command line when I type
    utils services list -
    they are all in [STARTING] -
    Uptime is now 2 hours.
    Any ideas ?? Hopefully someone is working on a saturday !

    Thanks for all the feedback -
    I contacted TAC and raised a P1. We lost one publisher and one subscriber - we only had one working subscriber
    we went down the road of SUB to PUB recovery.
    At the end I downloaded the missing COP files and we were good to go.
    The only 'gotcha' seems to be dial-plans - there were causing me a little heart ache and needed to be re-installed. Also MoH - but I didnt have much of that to begin with.
    Apparently the underling Linux OS doesn't like sudden power downs !

  • WONT START AT ALL

    Dear all, this is frustrating. The system just wont start up, chimes and spins around but just goes up to the apple logo and that is it. I leftit in sleep mode all night by mistake and the following day refused to start. Any ideas pls? I've done all the suggestions to reset the pram/ram.

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.   
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
         a. Boot into the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    If you've booted from an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 7
    Repeat Step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 8
    This step applies only to older Macs (not current models) that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery. Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a gray screen at boot. Typically the boot failure will be preceded by loss of the startup disk and system clock settings. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 9
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. If you can't get to an Apple Store, go to another authorized service provider.

  • Itunes wont start and i get no error messages

    i just downloaded itunes 7.3 and itunes wont start any ideas how to fix?

    Okay. I'm still wondering about your firewall. A "persistent" iTunes.exe in your processes is most consistent with a firewall blocking iTunes, iTunesHelper and/or QuickTime from accessing the Internet. (Norton Internet Security 2005 is by far the worst offender in this regard, but it can be produced both other firewalls too.)
    Head into the Firewalls settings and make sure that iTunes, iTunesHelper, and QuickTime are all being allowed full access to the internet.
    If iTunes still doesn't launch after making sure the firewall is correctly adjusted, reboot the PC and try the suggestion from the following document. (It's a much rarer issue, but it can also produce that persistent iTunes.exe symptom in conjunction with an error-message-free iTunes launch failure.)
    iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading

  • My ipod is displying apple logo and wont start up, hard reset leaves it the same, disc mode works but iTunes doesnt "see" it even if the computer does.

    "My ipod is displaying apple logo and wont start up, hard reset leaves it the same, disc mode works but iTunes doesn't "see" it even if the computer does."
    It worked two days ago fine, for two years, until I installed this newest iTunes update, then for one day it kept on freezing and going to apple logo screen mode, then today it only goes to that screen and wont start up at all.
    I've tried the hold down two buttons hard reset, that doesn't help. I've tried disc mode... but iTunes doesn't "see" it even if the computer does.
    This is a pristine ipod, never exposed to adverse conditions, never dropped, never wet, and it worked perfectly two days ago.
    Can I factory reset it somehow? (considering itunes can't "see" it)
    [Ipod classic 160gb less than two years old.]

    Looks like I might have found the solution on a youtube comment:
    R.O:
    "Plug into you laptop first, whichever set up you use that has iTunes, i know it won't read it, don't even open iTunes as of yet. Do the typical reboot "Menu +Center button at the same time" and hold it, DONT LET IT GO like we were told, when the apple pops up.. KEEP HOLDING IT it will make a new ding sound I've never heard before. and since its hooked to you laptop already an error message pops up and says apple will need to download something to repair your iPod. I when u see that that when i let reboot buttons go. hit ok on the laptop something downloads for like 20 seconds then the iTunes icon hops around when you open it it has a screen with an iPod classic on it and says "Software version blah blah, iTunes will check for an update on such n such date" AND FINALLY there's a "Restore" button. click that and you will be back to square one with your iPod. Renaming , adding all the music on it, but it will work again, finally. "
    I had to do it twice, because my mac froze the first time, but its recognized it now and is downloading the software as we speak...
    Now I've clicked the restore button and it's restoring... I'll post again if its a success, otherwise assume failure.

  • P45 Platinum wont start up

    Hi
    i have a p45 platinum motherboard. For some reason the board just wont start up anymore, it was working fine.
    when i plug it in, the power led glows, but when i hit the power button (on the board) some if not all of the leds, glow for like one second and then, nothing.
    Any idea what could be the issue ? is it fixable ?

    Q8200 2.66@ 3.01Ghz
    2*1GB DDR2 Ram 800Mhz @ 860Mhz
    Overclocking means accelerated death, but that 10% level is not quite a dangerous one.
    Did you overclock them more than 10% in the past?
    And if yes, how much and for how long?
    Try to borrow another processor and another DDR2 module and see how it goes.

  • U410 "rapid start technology not enables"; won't shut down; touchpad problems...

    Having a bit of a nightmare at the moment with my (three month old!) U410 Ultrabook. When it turns on it takes an ABSOLUTE AGE, and then I get a popup saying "Your system does not appear to have Intel Rapid Start Technology enabled." Then if I try to shut it down normally, it just sort of goes to sleep and I can only tun it off properly with the power button. In the past few days, the scrolling function of the touchpad stopped working.
    I have several important deadlines approaching and all this is really interfering with my work.  
    Can anyone offer solutions?

    hi Aoife,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    If the Ideapad U410 is configured with Windows 8 and runs on an HDD+mSATA SSD drive then your issue might be somewhat similar to this thread.
    When the machine boots up, it caches data and enables Intel Rapid Start Technology on the mSATA SSD. To ensure everything is configured correctly, try to check if:
    1. The mSATA SSD is detected under the BIOS
    2. Data caching is enabled via Intel Smart Respose Technology, check this guide on how to reconfigure it. If data caching is enabled via Expresscache, try opening a command prompt and type eccmd -info. You should see an output similar to this image.
    3. Intel Rapid Start Technology is configured as in this guide.
    Alternatively, you may also want to run an error scan on the drive by using HD Tune or similar utility and observe.
    Let me know your findings

  • Ideapad U410 no main hard drive, won't turn on after updates.

    Hi,
    I just imported an Ideapad u410 from the US to the UK. It turned on fine, I started noticing the wifi proglem everyone else are having. No big deal, got a usb wifi adapter laying around I can use. Then I noticed that the hard drive (C, no other harddrive visible) was rediculously small (20-30 some GB, I forgot the exact figure) with almost all of it's space used. I figured this was a partition for the OS and that for whatever reason the rest of the drive wasn't showing. I noticed the windows update icon showing on the shutdown button and figured perhaps setup wasnt complete so I pressed restart. It kept restarting, downloading more updates and restarting, I walked away to have dinner when it proclaimed it would now install update 1 of 96. When I came back the laptop was off. I turned it on to be met by an endless cycle of BSOD during startup followed by a failed startup repair... I guess there wasn't enough space on the C drive for the windows update. What do I do now?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    What os do you have? The main problem is the one key recovery, so if not interested it should be similar to the ordinary installation if there are no cache ssd installed.

  • PMG4 dual 1ghz wont start up

    I'm working on a MDD dual 1ghz. It wasn't starting up...the power light would come on for a second then turn off, then the fans would start spinning. after a couple of seconds it went into wind tunnel mode.
    we ordered a replacement power supply, which i put in today. and it still wont start up. same problem. I checked the voltage on pin 24 (with the computer off as it says in the troubleshooting guide) and it was 0 volts, not 12.
    I suppose it's possible the new power supply was DOA, but does anyone know if the logic board might either be the reason its not booting, or if the logic board could kill the power supply somehow?
      Mac OS X (10.4)  

    I have the same situation with a single 1Ghz MDD. No chime, power to all fans and HD is ok, but front light only stays on for a couple of seconds and after about 10 seconds, cooling fan shifts into high gear. No video either. I also tried another power supply, but the same thing happens. I guess the question is: 1. Is it possible that both power supplies are bad? 2. Is the motherboard bad? or 3. is the processor bad. Since I don't have another MDD handy, I can't play 'switch the parts" to test each. What else can I do? Can I use the known good power supply from an earlier G4 to test? or are the contacts wrong?

  • Ideapad U410: Improve Wifi range?

    Hi,
    with my new Ideapad U410 I recognize large differences comparing to my thinkpad edge concerning the range of wifi.
    Is it possible to improve this?
    maybe with an other wifi nic?
    greetings

    Hi FastDun, welcome to the forums,
    sorry you haven't received a reply as quickly as you would have liked, but this is a peer to peer forum it can take some time for the right person to come along with the right answer; forums in general usually require a little patience.
    That said, it sounds to me as though you have a possible problem with a firewall software.  There are a few posts in the last week where it seems McAfee has been the cause of the problem, happened also to a friend of mine.
    Can you connect using safe mode with networking?  If so and you can't connect under normal Windows operation this would confirm a software firewall is the culprit in which case I would suggest uninstalling and then reinstalling the software after a new start.

  • I t just wont start...

    My mac mini wont start at all.
    When I power up, all I get is a grey screen with a
    small finder icon in the middle of the screen that
    flashes into a question mark.......what's up with that?
    Maybe to make matters worse, I inserted the "Intall/recovery disk"
    but nothing happens.
    To recap.
    Flashing icon on a grey screen.
    power off has to be done manually.
    install disk is stuck inside
    HELP ME PLEASE

    That screen with the arrow in a circular shape and right-pointing arrow is the boot loader screen. Any valid MacOS volumes will appear there. The watch symbol typically spins for a few minutes as the system searches all possible locations, but if it shows no internal drive then either the drive has failed or corrupted, or MacOS on it is damaged. If you have inserted the correct install disk for that system and it doesn't show in that screen, then the install disk may be faulty, the optical drive may have failed, or the interface for the drives may have failed.
    In the event of a hardware failure, it's worth trying a PMU reset (G4 minis) or an SMC reset (Intel systems). Don't use the wrong one of these procedures.
    To reset the PMU (G4 minis - 2 USB ports on the rear)
    -Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
    -Wait 10 seconds.
    -Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
    -Let go of the power button.
    -Press the power button once more to start up your Mac mini.
    To reset the SMC on an Intel mini (4 USB ports on the rear):
    -From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
    -Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
    -Wait at least 15 seconds.
    -Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time.
    -Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
    -Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.
    If that doesn't help, make sure the install disk is the right one for the system - eject it by holding the left mouse button down during power up, and check it is the correct one for your mini - installers from other models will not work.

  • HT1349 i upgraded to yosemite last week, now my computer wont start. it stops at white screen with apple logo. what do i do?

    i upgraded to yosemite last week, now my computer wont start. it stops at white screen with apple logo. what do i do?

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    To restart an unresponsive computer, press and hold the power button for a few seconds until the power shuts off, then release, wait a few more seconds, and press it again briefly.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
    b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
    c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
    Step 3
    Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 4
    If a desktop Mac hangs at a plain gray screen with a movable cursor, the keyboard may not be recognized. Press and hold the button on the side of an Apple wireless keyboard to make it discoverable. If need be, replace or recharge the batteries. If you're using a USB keyboard connected to a hub, connect it to a built-in port.
    Step 5
    If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
    Step 6
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Step 7
    If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
    If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
    If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 8
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear.

In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
    Step 9
    If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.  
    Step 10
    Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Step 11
    Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
    Step 12
    This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
    Step 13
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • Computer wont start please help

    I have a problem with my k8m ne0-v motherboard.
    When i placed my new Graphics Card 7600 in the agp slot it wont start windows,
    bios just stops after the checking memory part.
    There are some text:
    del: Setup f11:boot menu f12: Networkboot TAB:Logo ESC:Skip memory test F10: Flash recovery
    but only TAB:logo works the rest just change to for example: Go -> Setup if i press del.
    Everything works just fine if i change to my old card FX5200.
    please help...

    Hello!
    I tried to write a full system specifikation.
    Hope i got everything in it.
    mm not yet read Moan Guide give memory spec, PSU +12V ampere stats...
    and remaining hardware installed in your system.
    ensure power cable from PSU to VGA is plugged in.
    if no change try with better and decent PSU which can handle your newest VGA, with high amperes on +12V
