Lenovo 3000 G530 Gprahics Driver problem

i baught a new new laptop lenovo 3000 G530 with intel x4500mhd
installed vista ultimate x64
and donwloaded intel gma driver from lenovo support site...
but when i go for install it says " This Computer Does Not Meet the minimum requirements to instlal the software" with error mark

I had same problem. So what is wrong?
Actioly it is because that driver on Lenovo website is not x64... it is x32... so looks like your destiny is to install Vista x32. Because there is no x64 video driver at all!
N.B. I can say more - non of that drivers from Lenovo works good in x64 Vista... So i suggest you to install x32 Vista...
Also I wanna give you advise: after you install video drivers from Lenovo website update video drivers from this website: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/drivers

If you go to the W2K Audio Driver download page for the J100 and scroll down to "Before installing the Package" you will find links to the UAA audio drivers.

Lenovo 3000 N200 0769 Startup Problem

Hello,
I recently installed a new harddrive which is a Samsung HM251JJ 250GB 7200rpm
Before I inserted the new harddrive I disconnected the the power supply and akku as mentioned.
I started the Laptop and after the message mouse initialized the System hangs... So I have no chance to get the Boot Menu to install the Operating System...
First I thought, might be a problem with the harddisk itself but I've run a full harddrive scan with serveral tools also from Samsung itself but all reported that the haddrive should work fine...
Next thing I did was a Bios update to the newest available version, which does not solved the problem.
Another Idea I got was installing another harddrive this time also a Samsung with 250GB but instead of 7200rpm it had 5400rpm that drive worked fine...
So I wonder if the Lenovo 3000 N200 does not support harddrives with a speed of 7200rpm???
best regards

I once had a "wake" key stuck on a keyboard, and the computer kept re-booting!
I thought maybe the "one touch restore" button, or one of the F key could
be stuck partially down.
Your computer problem is very strange, have not heard of that one before.
Sorry to be no help.

3000 n200 Optical Drive problems

Hi all.
I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 MT0687, that has NEVER had a properly working optical drive.
Purchased this machine, was on display, and they had lost the box, and no one knew the password on it, so formatted and installec Win XP. The optical drive will install Win XP and other operating systems, but once installed
will NOT look at any other Discs. Data, DVD's, music CD's Will not see a blank cd/dvd so can't write to cd.
Have tried Ubuntu 8.04 with exactly the same result.
Everything else works fine on both WinXP and Linux. Optical Drive doesn't show in either.
I have been in touch with the Lenovo service centre on a number of occasions, and have had different answers
each time, everything from updating the bios, to installing drivers. Nothing worked. Have been told my problem, "original
image" not still on it. See below re re-installing said image with recovery cd's.
Lenovo sent me a new optical drive, a different make to the original, no change, still no
drive showing anywhere on XP. (Or ubuntu 8.04, I appreciate there is no support for Linux)
Lenovo even sent me a set of recovery discs(3), which I installed (after formatting, several times with bios set to both AHCI and Compatability) using both the internal and an external USB connected optical drive. Same result, system boots to "Welcome to Vista etc, then shutting down logging off, only to re-boot to the same place ad infinitum. In short "recovery discs" did not recover. Get error message randomly when this happens "Side Bar error The application failed to initialize properly
(0xc0000189) " Click OK to terminate, but is too fast, and terminates itself.
Machine was sent to Selectron for checkout, told "Nothing wrong with it", but the Optical Drive working at last.
Partitioned Vista, (Shrunk Partition to 45gig) installed another operating system on new partition, can boot into both systems
and recovery, working fine, but now no Optical Drive again.
Rang Lenovo again, informed them, and queried possibilty of buying a Win XP recovery disc, told drive will only work with
Vista, so waste of funds to get a Win XP recovery disc that may or may not work properly.
Am I missing an obscure driver, or will the drive only perform all it's functions running Vista
(which the recovery discs will not install properly)?. If this is the case shouldn't it (the fact that it needs Vista)
be mentioned at point of sale. Does this breach the Anti trust laws? I am afraid I am getting very fed up, would be nice not to have to carry around an external optical drive, that needs a power supply, so if anyone has any ideas I would be extremely appreciative, would even consider naming y first born after them. Will post my problem on the Ubuntu lists again, hoping for resolution. Seems that it's a retty basic expectation that CD drives just work. This should be a machine that can have software installed on it. Have 2 towers (1 dual boot) that have had a few optical drives changed with never any problems.
Thanks in advance. Any ideas very much appreciated.

What a terrible service from Lenovo. Well after many phone calls to what turned out to be a call centre in Romania. and after being promised a replacement drive day after day one finally turned up. Even after fully explaining what I needed I was sent the wrong drive they sent me a DVD Rom and not the DVD Rewriter that was in my original laptop. The same Romanians have promised me the correct one on Monday. I will wait and see. I have little faith in Lenovo and their whole very poor support network. Quite frankly the drive should never have broken in only 3 weeks and after only approx 8 uses.
I wonder what will turn up

Lenovo 3000 J115 Memory/RAM Problem

Hi everyone. According to the Lenovo website, the Lenovo 3000 J115 machine type 7387 is capable of 4GB of RAM. It has two DIMM slots and supports single or dual channel DDR2 memory. I really wanted to run with 4GB of RAM and it was a deciding factor when I bought the machine.
I purchased two 2GB DDR2 memory sticks, put them in the machine, and the BIOS only shows 2.5GB. The machine runs fine like this, its just not using the memory. There doesnt seem to be anything in the BIOS to help me out with this. I saw some other people had similar issues with other manufacturers machines, but they only needed to enable something called Memory Remapping in the BIOS to fix the problem. There isnt this feature in my BIOS. I installed the latest BIOS hoping that it would help, but it didnt. I also tried a 2GB and a 1GB memory stick just to see what happens and it still shows 2.5GB even with 3GB of RAM installed.
Does anyone know how to get this machine to recognize 4GB of RAM, or even 3GB of RAM. I called support and at first they were trying to tell me it was a problem with Windows XP. Hmmm....I already told them I was running Windows Vista Home Premium. Which wouldnt matter anyway. If the BIOS doesnt see the memory, the OS wouldnt have anything to do with that. So how anyone could think it could be a problem with the OS is beyond me and flat out wrong. After explaining this and getting the team lead on the phone, they sent me out a new motherboard even though I was quite certain that wouldnt fix the problem, which it didnt. And now they are trying to tell me that it wont support 4GB of RAM after they cant think of anything else. The website says it does and that is why I bought the machine and the new memory, both of which I cannot return for a full refund.
Is there anyone else out there that ran into this? Anyone that has more than 2.5GB in their Lenovo 3000 J115? If yes, did you need to do anything special or did it just work.

The 3GB vs 4 GB limitation is actually a x86 issue, not operating system. A 32-bit system can only address 32 bits (4,096). There are a number of articles concerning this - Google 3GB vs 4 GB ram. Here is a link: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000811.html
The issue is basically a 32 Bit system can only address 4,096 of memory adressing. However in simple layman terms, the system must address all items on the bus like sound card, video, bios, pci bus, etc. (and the addressing of these items is like using memory).
Anyone familar with the old dos days remembers the software and memory managers we used to move the video, bios, etc above the 1 GB limitation, that way we had 640 KB Memory available for the applications.
Now several years later, we have hit the limit again, the 32-bit architectural now puts the addressing of items above the 3 GB level, leaving the lower 3 GB for memory use. So if 4 MB is installed, the 32-bit system addresses the computer components, then allocates what is left in the addressing range to the memory, thus why some systems with 4 GB do actually get 3.5 GB.
So on systems with 4 GB, with large memory video card and several other addressable items, it is percievable to only be able to use 3 GB. In fact, the recommendation with 32 Bit systems is to install 3 GB memory.
However, I do not know why the system wont recognize the installation in 3 GB mode only (have you installed only 3 GB total and see what it does?) My K100 system has 3 GB ram, (3) 1 GB sticks in 3 of the 4 memory slots. The system does recognize all 3 GB.
In fact, this addresses the reason Lenovo only put 3 GB in my system (I thought 3 GB was weird), because 4 GB would not all be addressed and the additional ram would be a waste of money.
Additional comments from users indicates that applications typically can only use the lower 2 GB anyway, thus leaving the last 1 GB for the OS (Vista). Unless you have applications that can use more Ram, the difficulty in getting the system to address the Ram differently wont gain you much.
And even a 64 Bit OS may not fix the issue, because some chipsets are only 32 Bit, thus addressing the components in the same method, which maybe why your system only see 2.5 GB at the bios level.
How much video memory you have? What do you have the allocation to the video memory set at in the bios?

Lenovo 3000 N200 0769 BIOS problem

Hello everybody! I'm a new entry in the forum, but i am a 6 year old user of a Lenovo 3000 N200 (0769) and i am very happy with its services so far! However, after a format that i make, i saw a BIOS update for this model, so i decide to install it. But the result wasn't the οne that i wish for. My poor laptop now when i try to open i can see just a black screen and nothing else. Although, i can hear the fan and the LEDs of the AC, HDD are light up (HDD's led is off after while). The laptop has got Windows XP 32bit.
I think i must recover the old BIOS, but i would like to see your suggestions and anwsers first.
Thank you.

Hi LongBeacher,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that your N200 is displaying black screen when tried to turn ON after updating the BIOS, Remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer. Hold the power button for 10-15 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and try to turn ON the computer, check if the display is working also check if the computer display is working in External display.
If the issue persists even after performing the above step, I would Strongly Suggest Calling Technical Support for Assistance. Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.
Hope this helps!!!
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

Lenovo Ideapad u400 6470M driver problems Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit HELP

I bought this lenovo u400 like 2 years ago and i had no problems, but now my SSD went dead and i bought another, after the replacement i just installed the original windows 7 64 bit home premium, put my notebook's serial installed all the drivers, and when i install the Ati driver from Lenovo my pc gets stuck in a black screen with a white line on the top left of my screen, when i do FN+F8 while booting and start window's safe mode and i go to the device manager i see this ones: 6470M and Intel HD graphics family, when i disable intel hd graphics family my pc boots up normally but the resolution is 800x600 and the max is 1024x768, If i install the Intel 3000 HD my 6470m appears with a yellow triangle on the device manager, i've tried almost 30 different drivers from leshcat, hp, dell, lenovo and AMD's webpage, none of them work, and when i go to the CCC it just lists the intel 3000.
Sorry for my bad english, im from Argentina, Lenovo's support on argentina sucks, last time i've sent it it costed a lot of money, they scratched multiple parts on my laptop and didn't fix most of my problems, and i can't get the One Key backup anywhere, pls help, atleast AND IF ANYONE WITH A LENOVO U400 WITH WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM IS READING THIS AND HIS 6470M DRIVER IS WORKING, PLEASE CONTACT ME.
Lenovo, please, don't give me a crappy answer and most of times when that answer does not fix the problem then you give up and don't reply anymore. Im getting sick, i got this laptop for doing 3D modeling, video editing and multiple more and i just can't go and buy another, things are really expensive in Argentina.

Lenovo G510 Graphics Cards Driver Problem

Hi!
I just bought the Lenovo G510 Laptop, with an Radeon 8750, and installed Windows 8 64 Bit.
After installing the drivers from the provided CD, I get the following Bugcheck error code in WhoCrashed
0xA0000001 (0x5, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
when rebooting ,or when I try to open the Catalyst Control Center.
Actually the AMD graphics card driver seems to be responsible, as this problem does not occur until I install this driver.
I tried to use the driver provide at the Lenovo support page too (for both Windows 8 and 7), with the same result. The ThinkVantage System Update does not install an AMD graphics driver at all.
Accordding to WhoCrashed atikmdag.sys causes this error.
I would highly appreciate any help!

Hi Aimor,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that the Wireless driver is not getting installed in your G510 Laptop, I suggest you to download a fresh copy of the driver from the below mentioned link and while installing the driver right click on the downloaded file and select “Run as administrator” option to get it installed without any error:
WLAN Driver (Atheros, Broadcom, Realtek) for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

LENOVO 3000 N200 MAJOR BOOT PROBLEMS - CAN YOU HELP?

I have am running Vista on an N200 which 10 months old. Booting up problems have been occurring intermittently since first receipt but now it will not get past the less than helpful Lenovo Rescue and Recovery 4 screens. I can get to the screen asking for keyboard type and then the identification of the operating system however when I click on OK I get the message below:
You must log on to access System Recovery Options contact your admisistrator for assistance?
My Question is - How can I log onto anything if I cannot boot the system? When i click OK on the message screen i fall into the perpetual loop of boot, Rescue and Recovery 4 to the same screen which kick me out again!
I have tried F8 on boot up but just end up back at the Rescue and Recovery circus. The Bios seems to be ok. I has version 3.03 but reset to defaults in frustration as nothing was working anyhow.
Can anyone shed any light on this really frustrating problem?

What a terrible service from Lenovo. Well after many phone calls to what turned out to be a call centre in Romania. and after being promised a replacement drive day after day one finally turned up. Even after fully explaining what I needed I was sent the wrong drive they sent me a DVD Rom and not the DVD Rewriter that was in my original laptop.
