Lenovo 3000 N100 0768 DKU Battery problem

Lenovo 3000 N100 0768 DKU Laptop has battery issues. The battery shows 75% & total battery power remaining @ 76%.
The battery charge does not change when connected to the system with the AC adapter. The system will only function with the AC adapter attached. The system will not function on battery alone.
Is there some type of battery re-calibration available? My husband checked the battery with a meter that shows that it still does have power. The battery is a Sony LION; the original one purchased with the computer.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions offered!
Rita

LENOVO 3000 N100 "lock-up", "stall" problem

My laptop will start, but stall/freeze at any step after pushing the on buttom. It stalled at "window is starting up", "login in screen", afetr login, during loading the start-up programs or few minutes after running any propgram like Internet Explorer or spybot. When it stalled, the mouse is still able to move arond, but nothing happen if you click an icon. If clicking too many times, it beep two times and the mouse stalled. After a lot of try-and-errors, I think I find out the cause (with 80% confidence). Somehow, I.E. is causing lock-up. I have I.E. 7.0 and Window XP. What shoud I do to fix the problem? I tried to remove I.E. 7.0 from my laptop and re-installed back. It didn't work. Then, I tried to install I.E. 6.0. The set-up says it detected a new version of I.E. installed on my laptop and won't install I.E. 6.0 even I.E. 7.0 is already removed. Thanks for the help.

Lenovo 3000 N100 0768 - 30 pin LVDS pinout of graphic card

Hello!
I have a N100 0768 model with GeForce Go 7300 (1680x1050). I've noticed that the LCD is connected through a 30 pin LVDS interface. Since I'm using an external TFT with 1920x1200 resolution I would prefer to use digital video output instead of VGA out.
Do anyone know what kind of 30 pin LVDS interface has the GF Go 7300 card in this model?
Is there any LVDS to DVI / HDMI / DisplayPort converter that I can connect to this connector to use my TFT with digital video ouput?
regards,
NA

hence why i refer you to get a USB 2 DVI converter.

What motherboard in my 3000 N100 0768-A53?

Hi guys! Have a problem with my Lenovo 3000 N100 0768-A53. Every time I hit the power button all it does is the heatsink fan spins and I hear the DVD drive and that's it! No beeps, screen is completely blank so no error codes. I removed DVD drive, hard drive, and ram from the laptop and still no go. From what I've been reading on the forums, it sounds like I need to replace the motherboard?
Now, if that is the case, I am confused on which motherboard I need for this laptop. According to the parts list on the lenovo web site my laptop uses motherboard model number 41W1201. Im I correct? BUT, when I removed the ram from the laptop I was able to see the sticker on the motherboard with model number 41W8032.
Why does the web site say one motherboard model and I have different model installed ? What's the difference between both motherboard models? Can I purchase either motherboards and transfer the CPU, DVD drive, ram.... From the old unit and use it with the new with no problems?
Thanks for the help guys

Hi, did you ever get this solved? I have the same problem.

I cant hear my spekers in 3000 n100 0768-59g

I have lenovo 3000 n100 0768-59g and I don't hear nothing from the speakers.
I use Windows 7 Enterprise now, before I installed win7 I used win XP and I heard very good.
now I see in mixer the song volume up an down but I don't hear nothing.
pleas somebody help me...
I search answer in Google and I don't find, and I call to lenovo but them don't
support Because the Warranty is over.
tnx a lot

make sure that your playback devices are enabled.
right-click the speaker icon on your taskbar > select 'playback devices'
in the empty space, right-click and select both 'show disconnected/disabled devices'
do you see icons for your speakers and headphones now? you may need to enable both of these.
you can also try the troubleshooter to discover any connection issues that may exist, instructions are below:
- click 'start' > select 'control panel'
- type troubleshooting in the top-right search field > select 'troubleshooting'
- click 'hardware and sound' > select 'playing audio'

Lenovo 3000 N100 audio problem

i use a 3000 N100 0768-B9G notebook with win Xp for a year and for some reason i had to format the Hard drive yesterday. i reinstalled my Win Xp and visited the site and downloades the audio drivers for the sound but nothing happend there was no device. then i downloaded the system update programm. it downloades all of the drivers including one for audio (different from the one from the lenovo site) and this time i had a audio device (not the old one though) my speakers were off and when i pluged external speakers to the speakers in the sound was horrible...what can i do?

Problem is that I have downloaded ALL DRIVERS from link you provided (www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/product.do?template=/product.do?template=%2Fproductpag_1";return this.s_oc?this.s_oc(e):true">http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/product.do?template=/product.do?template=%2Fproductpage%2...) but audio, video and network controller still doesn't work.
Please, does anybody know where is possible to find 'working' drivers? Drivers provided by above link are not for Lenovo 3000 N500 configuration. Neither, on this configuration is not possible to download Windows XP SP3.

Two big problems that have effectively made my Lenovo 3000 N100 an expensive paperweight.

Okay, I have two problems with my laptop, which I know are unrelated:
1. My laptop's battery died about a month ago. It will not hold a charge, and unplugging the system will immediately shut off the system. This is identical to symptoms as per the battery issue attached to the top of the forum. However, this battery issue occured after even the extended warranty expired.
2. My laptop will now spontaneously, inexplicably shut down between 3 - 5 minutes after turning it on. It acts as if the system was suddenly unplugged.
Between these two issues, this has effectively crippled my laptop. The first issue limits it to the power outlet. The second makes it completely unusable. The system runs normally until it spontaneously shuts down. Because of the time it takes until it shuts down, I doubt I can use Lenovo's warranty check tool online. Because of this, I can't even get the serial number (as the warranty sticker is worn down to the point of illegibility.
First question: What can be done to repair it?
Second question: Is it under warranty? It is a Lenovo 3000 N100.
Please let me know ASAP. This is a very problematic issue for me, and I'm really unhappy that a less-than-two year old system has died, and I hope that this can be resolved.

Lenovo 3000 N100 notebook cannot connect to my wireless network

Hello,
this is my first post. I am new member. I also am a very novice/amateur computer user and so I need some help from some pros or anyone that has experienced a similar problem and can help fix my laptop. I have a Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop model number 0768 6EU. About a week ago I updated/downloaded a bunch of software upgrades from Lenovo's website recommended for this computer. Prior to this download I was able to connect to my wireless home network. But after the download of various required/recommended software upgrades it no longer connects to the wireless home network. my other laptops connect so I know that it is not my wireless router. I have tried various things recommended by the ThinkVantage access connection on my computer but I get the following on that: signal strength: 0%, status: disconnected, IP address: not assigned. I also ran the diagnostic tools and it gave me the following: connection status: disconnected, cause: wireless stack initialization failed, error code: 118, recommended action please check the wireless driver installation. I even went to the Intel wireless 3945 abg hardware properties window and pressed the tab to revert back to the prior driver for the wireless card. I would appreciate any help. I know this message/post is long but it is the only way I can explain what is going on

Hi
I have this problem also with my Lenovo 3000 V200.
Sometimes when I boot up the PC it will connect to the network and everything works just fine.
At other times, after boot, the "wireless stack initialization failed, error code: 118" problem occurs
and the only way to solve it seems to be a PC restart. Nothing else I do will bring the network up.
If I study the Networking tab in Task Manager it indicates that no adapters are available (wired eth.
access also fails). At a few occations connectivity have failed alltogether (i.e. a reboot have not solved
the problem). Last time this occured I had to reinstall the complete system (from a previous backup)
to get networking up.
I have tried different versions of Access Connections (5.02, 5.12, 5.21) and the same problem occurs
at seemingly random instances in time. This is obviosly a problem with the Access Connections software
since the Wireless networking works fine when I let windows manage it...
Anyone with a fix?

Mysterious shutdowns on Lenovo 3000 N100

I have a Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop around two years old. Half a year ago its battery when dead, and I've been running on AC power since. However, that doesn't seem to be enough anymore.
The computer has begun to shut down randomly for no apparent reason - sometimes during boot, sometimes after a couple of minutes, sometimes after several hours or more.
I'm using Ubuntu as my operating system after Windows went haywire, and haven't experienced any trouble with it so far.
Ideas, anybody?

Exactly same here...............solution?
I run lenovo n100 on ac power.If battery is inserted it is detected but shows not charging on windows 7.
After few minutes the laptop switches off without any indication within a second. And then if I switch on again with/without battery same thing repeats. To over come that I hav to Restore the system in Safe mode.
So we can conclude there is no Hardware problem.

Lenovo 3000 N100 - Stays on just for a very short time

I have a Lenovo 3000 N100, Model Type 0689-29U
Will power up but only stay on for a short time (less than two minutes usually) before it shuts down without any errors. Does not stay on long enough to run hardware diagnostics.
Have replaced the following items so far:
1) Main System Board (motherboard)
2) Both Memory Modules
3) Power Adapter (power brick)
4) Hard Drive
5) Battery
Still the same results. I am not thinking that the CPU may be either bad and/or it is heating up. I am not sure how the fan on this unit is supposed to behave. In other words, I am not sure if it is supposed to be on all the time or not. When I first power the system up, the fan comes on just for a few seconds then goes off and never comes back on again. I assume that is because this unit's fan is supposed to come on only when needed although not sure.
If anyone has any ideas and/or any feedback on anything I have written above, I would greatly appreciate your input.
Thank you.

remove the battery and plug the ac power, and check if issue persists.

Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop shuts down after about 1 minute

Despite being plugged into AC power, my Lenovo 3000 N100 shuts down after about one minute. It boots properly but suddenly shuts down. I have not used this laptop much since purchasing it in 2006 and have seldom used it on battery power alone. Any suggestions before I buy a new battery? Maybe I am mistaken, but shouldn't the computer work on AC despite a depleted battery?

Hi Charleydog and welcome to the community,
Take the battery out and unplug the ac. Hold the power button down for about 15 seconds. Do it twice. Then plug only the ac in and see if it fires up.

Lenovo 3000 N100, Services failed to start No internet connection, Win Vista H Prem SP2

Can not connect to the internet.
Control Panel>Network and Sharing Center   .. Below Sharing and Discovery "off "
Tried to connect wireless first. Network discovery is off. Clicked to turn on and apply..... it will not turn on? (still trying ) To end I had to use the task manager, to end program.
Connected a network cable to the laptop and fill out the wizard connection information.
       Still will not connect.   Restarted with network cable attached no connection.
Wireless Connection status, Radio off. Click on "Power on Wireless Radio" will not come on.
Also have some spooler issues, currently no printer installed. "The Dependency service or group failed to start."
Lenovo 3000 N100 Win Vista Home Premium SP2 32bit, system rating 3.1
I think this is all a services issue?
Suggestions?
After yet an additional restart "Connection Status: unknown The dependency services or failed to start."

Called into the Lenovo help desk for software, Rommel did diagnostic with me and it seem to be a virus. I have no services files running and no internet connection.
With no internet connection it's hard to get a service from Lenovo.
They are will to sell me a one time service for 89.00 and if it's considered major it would go to 129.00.
A one year service agreement would be 179.00 for 3 major and unlimited minor and they would on either of these send me a boot disk.
They did a great Diagnostic work I'm just not sold they can fix my problem.
On the command line   ping 127.0.0.1 gets me Unable to initialize windows Socket, error code 10107.
Looks like I dead in the water..........
