comments and suggestions requested from other users of the same model and solutions to minimise the heating.
many thanks in advance

Hi jagadesh,
Welcome back to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Laptop is getting heated up at the left hand side this issue seems to be hardware related but please check using the laptop on a flat surface as the air intake to the laptop will be better and for battery backup issue installing the LEM (Lenovo Energy Management) should resolve the issue, below is the link to download LEM.
Lenovo Energy Management Driver for Windows 7 & Windows 8
If the heating issue persists, I would Strongly Suggest Calling Technical Support for Assistance, below is the number to contact.
Hope this helps!!!
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Lenovo essential G505s (59-380146) CPU temperature

Hello Friends, Hope ya'll are doing fine. I bought lenovo essential G505s (59-380146) finally.
I am using speccy to monitor my laptop. My CPU temperature when the laptop is started averages around 85-90 degrees and during gaming, it reaches to 125 degree celcius.
I have a feeling this is not normal.
Also, on the box it said the RAM is of 1600MHz but speccy is showing it to be be 800MHz. What can be done in this case?
Kindly help!

hi atheos,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I checked you system's info.
Due to Turbo core Tech, your system might be Overclocking automatically up to 3.5, one step further to the normal speed of 2.5
Clock Speed
2.5 GHz with Turbo Core Technology Upto 3.5 GHz
This might be being triggered if you run a high processing Application.
and might the cause of over heating.
125 degrees is too hot for a computer and might cause problems.
Try to limit your CPU state to 99% this will stop the turbo core from being triggered then observe the Temperature. It should not be higher than 90 degress.
Check here how to limit the CPU state
Also note that room temperature may contribute.
About your RAM Speed
Software Tools is likely to report half of the memory speed since you have a doudle data rate, you will have to multipy the reported speed twice to get the actual speed
see details here

Your signature in 1st post was 10.8.2.
You went backwards?
Did you reformat and reinstall when you first purchased it?
If not I HIGHLY recommend you do that before you do anything else.

Issues with Lenovo Ultrabook Yoga 13

Hi,
I have a Lenovo Yoga 13 laptop which does not turn on. If I remove the AC adaptor and battery for a few seconds and plug it back, it will turn on with no problem and everything works fine till next shutdown.
If I turn the laptop off (shutdown), it will not turn back on again till I remove the AC adaptor and battery for a few seconds. I even tried pressing off/on switch 10 times (each time for a few seconds) and tried holding off/on switch for 30 seconds to discharge everything, but still having the same problem.
Any ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If both battery and AC power is unplugged for a few seconds, then by plugging either the power or the battery, I can turn the laptop back on with no issues, but if I do not unplug both battery and the AC power, then it would not turn on.
If I disconnect only battery or only AC power, I can not turn the unit on. It seems that it has to discharge for a few seconds before I can turn it back on. I even press and hold on/off switch for more than 30 seconds but it did not help.

Issues with lenovo t420s

I have three issues with my lenovo t420s, they might be related but I'm just not smart enough to fix them.
1:By default the bios is set to using optimus, and if I leave it at that x starts up all right but I don't think it is using the discrete graphics card at all? If I change the bios to use discrete graphics X fails with message "no screen found". I have seen this is an issue with optimus-laptops but I have also seen reports of getting it to boot of the discrete graphics card. So my question is simply, should it be possible to boot it of the discrete graphics card? (I have tried using both nouveau and proprietary drivers).
2: It doesn't see my display port connection. Running xrandr just shows LVDS and VGA connection, shouldn't the display port show up as well? On a side note up unitl yesterday xrandr responded with LVDS1 and VGA1, but after updating to 3.2 kernel it now responds with LVDS2 and VGA2?
3: Sometimes when I boot it thinks the vga is connected and boots with the wrong resolution. Running xrandr VGA says connected even though no cable is connected, running xrandr --output VGA1 --off --output LVDS1 --auto (or VGA2 and LVDS2 as of yesterday) fixes the issue.
Regards

Hello OMGitsUGOD,
i run into the same problems with my t420s, at least problems 2 and 3. I did not try to use optimus or discrete graphics settings in BIOS. I think there is something in the wiki about this, maybe you should take a look at that? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Le … IA-Optimus

WRT54G2 connection issues with a windows 2000 laptop, HELP!!! please?

Ok, at my house I have a newer version of a wireless router (I can't remember which). The old windows 2000 laptop that I have connects perfectly there, but when I installed a WRT54G2 router at my grandma's house it wouldn't connect to the router. My vista laptop and my grandma's vista desktop both are connecting to the router fine (as is evident in my typing this right now), but not the windows 2000.
It is registering that the signal exists, however, it says that it is out of range and it can't connect every time I try. Which makes no sense at all because the laptop in question is sitting no more than 4 ft away from the router.....
It's driving me insane! Does anyone have any suggestions on fixing this problem? Plus I'm not even sure if it's an issue with the computer or if it's an issue with the router itself......
Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
illueia
P.S. sorry if I was too rambley...... or I wasn't clear enough....

Download and install the latest driver for your wireless card...
I aaume the security on the WRT54G2 wireless router must be WPA/WPA2 and that's the reason your Laptop(win2000) does not connect to it...
What error do you get when you attempt to connect to the Wireless Network ?
If it connects to your wireless network then what IP Address do you get for your Wireless Connection ?

Mic issue with Lenovo G710 laptop

I have a laptop Lenovo G710 which i have upgraded to Windows 10. The laptop has an inbuilt microphone.I'm going through the setup process with Cortana but my voice isn't being detected when getting Cortana to learn my voice.I have done following to try and fix it but it hasn't yet worked:
I checked in Device Manager and looked for Microphone(IDT High Definition Audio Codec) and it says Device is working properly when i go to the properties of it.The latest driver was installed 09/07/2015.
Secondly, I have tested the inbuilt microphone out by going into Control Panel, then going to Speech Recognition then click on Audio Devices and making sure that the microphone is enabled.
I then right clicked on it Properties went to the Levels tab and increased the Microphone level to 100. Microphone boost is set to the max level. If anyone can help me to fix this issue, it would be much appreciated.Kind Regards,

Hey there,
I've been having the same problem for a long time now, seems like the IDT drivers for this model are fu**ed up somehow. No one ever responded to my problems. Don't expect anyone having a magical solution to this, unless someone from the Lenovo support really decides to dig deep. The newest driver is absolutely incompatible with Windows 10, even though it says it is. The mic works "fine" when listening to it through the recording devices properties, but never have I been able to make it work with Cortana, neither Skype! To temporarily solve this problem, until MAYBE a solution will come, I advise you to open Device Manager, and under Sound, video and game controllers, click right on the IDT High Definition Audio Codec, Properties, Driver, Update Driver, Browse my computer for driver software, Let me pick from a list, and select High Definition Audio Device. Your sound will sound worse, after some restarts it will maybe even go almost mute (at 100% volume set EVERYWHERE application-wise, windows-wise it will sound like 30%, 40% before), but at least the microphone will work service-ably with Cortana or Skype.
Guys could any of the official support REALLY take a look at this problem? Seems that not just me has it. This is a serious issue to solve. Thanks! (whistles in the wind, becomes forgotten in a few days)

Issue with Lenovo T440 windows 7 x64

We have recently got a new laptop the Lenovo T440. I imported the drivers into the deployment share. I also put storage and network drivers in WinPE folder. Once i boot to the PXE and select x64 it loads in to PE and gives an error saying that "the
following network device did not have a driver installed. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_155A&SUBSYS_221417AA&REV_04." It allows me to retry or cancel. I have booted it to windows found what driver it uses which is a e1d62x64. I have made sure that that
driver was in the WinPE folder but it still isnt working i have even made it pull drivers only from a folder i created with only the t440 drivers. But that didn't work either. I am using PE version 3 (Windows 7) and all drivers i have installed are for Windows
7. If any one could help me with this issue that would be so awesome. I want to get this to work due to us more then likely getting more T440s. The networking hardware is a I218-LM if anyone needs to know that too.

So we just got the t440s's here as well. We faced a different issue, as the drivers being in the "general" store caused other models to blue screen.
I've got them working now, what I had to do with them is create a custom variable in the customsettings.ini called customdrivers set to no. If it detects the model, set the variable to t440.
In the drivers, I have the t440 in their own folder(downloaded the sccm package from lenovo), and all of the others in a folder called general(no conflicts with any other device). Under advanced configuration, I have two selection profiles as of now,
General, and T440.
In the task sequence, with the inject drivers, I have two inject drivers task. The first one, which under options, looks for the variable customdrivers to be set to t440, if it isn't it will move on. If it is found, it will install only drivers
from the T440 Selection profile.
The second one, under options, will only run of customvariables is no. This uses the general selection profiles.
Neither of these is set to All Drivers.
I know this is not your issue, but these were the steps taken to get the t440's successfully running here, and hopefully similar steps may resolve the issue you are having.
Best of luck.

Issues with Lenovo g500

Hello,
I have been using Lenovo g500 for about a year now but last week there was some problem with my laptop and I had to restore windows using Lenovo's restore button. The windows restores just fine and I was able to update to Windows 8.1 althought all my data in C drive got wiped.
But now my laptop won't connect to any bluetooth device. Whenever I go to PC settings, it just says "searching for bluetooth devide but it never detects my phone or any other bluetooth devide.
Also, since my data got wiped, I have to install the drivers for my printer again but this laptop won't even recognize the CD!! It won't recognize ANY CD.
And the Lenovo Veriface won't work either now
I've searched and searched for these issues. I re-installed bluetooth drivers and lenovo veriface but they still don't work. And the bluetooth drivers never got deleted from my laptop since they were installed in Drive D but they don't.
Someone please help me I really need to print some documents but this laptop won't install my printers drivers.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Make sure you download updated drivers from Lenovo Support section. Select only drivers supported by Windows 8.1, reboot system when needed. Once drivers installed, shut down the notebook, then power up again. May take several power on/off cycles to restore drivers to full functionality.
Printer drivers may not be Windows 8.1 compatible, if on CD. I would suggest downloading latest drivers from printer manufacture website.
Good luck.

Upgrading Lenovo Essential G570 laptop for gaming purposes

Hello,
I would like to upgrade my G570 that has Intel Pentium B950 and Intel HD Graphics(GT1). As everybody knows, this graphics chip is pretty useless for gaming. My question is, is there any way to install another graphics card (for example, instead of wifi card, or DVD recorder)? Replacing this CPU with one that has integrated Intel HD 4000 wouldn't be a big difference either.
So if there is no way of adding a graphics card, is there any CPU that has better integrated GPU than HD4000 and is compatible with my laptop?
Thank you in advance.

hi Cicko,
There are only specific CPU's that you can use on the G570.
For a specific list, check the following:
- Link to picture (see page 73 of the HMM)
- G570 specs sheet
In addition, the lenovo FRU # must be visible on the CPU tag as a generic (non lenovo FRU) may produce an "unsupported CPU" error during POST or may not work at all.
