New Lenovo E540 stuck on Boot Menu?

My new Lenovo arrived today and I can't even start it.
I press the power button and it goes straight to Boot Menu and App Menu.
I don't want to mess around with the settings because I don't know much about computers.
How do I get to Windows?
Please help!!

Hi Ktkt2289,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
As per the query we understood that you are facing the issue with not Booting to Windows on your ThinkPad E540.
Please check if the system is shipped with pre-loaded Windows OS.
Keep tapping F2 key after switching ON the system this will take you to BIOS option and there go to Boot option and check if you are able to see HDD there.
Check and confirm if there is any Windows COA sticker at the bottom of the laptop.
Please provide the system MTM (Machine Type Model) number which will be at the back of the system written on the white sticker.
Hope to hear back soon!
Best regards,
Hemanth Kumar

Stuck at boot menu - Lenovo W530 Watch

I have a Lenovo W530 (i7 3720QM, 16GB, NVIDIA Quadro K2000M + Intel HD4000 – auto switching with Optimus, running Win8). I left it on overnight and when I opened it in the morning the display was flickering and going crazy. Turned it off and restarted and it said it was updating but it hung so I rebooted again and got a black screen with a blinking white dash at top left. Subsequent restarts just leave me at the boot menu where it recognises drives/usb but wont read from them.
I can access bios and I've tried booting from recovery usb, booting from Win8 DVD, booting from DVD with a different HDD and Win 7/8 in the DVD bay, disabling Optimus and flicking through the other graphics options, removing RAM etc. No luck.
Any ideas on what else I can try?
Solved!

Just to update - got it sorted. According to Lenovo technicians it was a failed SSD. They replaced it under warranty and so far it all seems ok. Hats off to them for very fast turnaround and service,

Hi
To enter recovery mode you have to simultaneously press and hold POWER BUTTON,VOLUME+ and VOLUME - (YES,BOTH VOLUME BUTTONS).
From there you can factory reset the phone.

TPT2 will not load Windows 8, stuck on boot menu

Hello all,
It's my first post on this forum, and I'm having issues with a Thinkpad Tablet 2. I can power on the device but then it goes to the boot menu, which is empty. From here I don't know what else to do, as I cannot find any way to access Windows 8. I took it to a shop here in Toronto and they said that the boot menu being empty means that it isn't detecting any of the hardware that is connected to it and that it is most likely a hardware issue. They told me to go to Lenovo for assistance, but I wanted to check here first to see if you folks have got any advice for me. I've attached photographs of the empty boot menu anfd main screen of the Thinkpad setup, not sure if there is any relevant information in there. What should be my next step? Thanks in advance.

Hi there !!! I have exactly the same problem with my Thinkpad Tablet 2 (64MB). The only difference is that in my BIOS option UEFI safe boot is OFF. I tried to use recovery tool, Lenovo Diagnostic tool and even WindowsPE, but tablet simply cannot see any USB or any other devices. in startup/boot section is ONLY ONE POSITION: ! 1. Windows Boot Manager and I cannot boot from USB... I will be very grateful for any kind of suggestion (well, perhaps except suggestion to throw it out through a window). With kind regards Marco Polo

Thanks in advance

hi bosiwow,
Welcome to the Forums.
If your BIOS is the same as the one below, can you set the following options (if applicable):
Credits goes to this website for the image.
Startup Tab:
UEFI/Legacy Boot = UEFI Only
- UEFi/Legacy Boot Priority = UEFI First
- CSM Support = Disabled
Security Tab:
Secure Boot = Disabled
Exit or Restart Tab:
OS Optimized Defaults = Other OS / Disabled
When done, press F10 to save and exit. Once the lenovo screen pops up, press F12 for the boot menu and see if the USB flashdrive is selectable.
Let me know how it goes.
Regards

Lenovo G580 boot menu is not working when pressing F2 and F12 key

QuestionI bought a new Lenovo G580 series laptop. After installation of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 bit edition, a problem revealed when Lenovo driver get installed.
When I installed Intel HD 3000 graphics driver and restarted laptop, the Window was unable to start normally. It displayed an error, so a recovery program started which was recommended. But this program failed to resolve the problem. Later, I tried again to load Windows normally but the blue screen fatal error showed up.
I attempted to reinstall Windows again, but after restarting window, the boot menu was not showing up after pressing F12 key. F2 key was also not working either.
I spoke to a Lenovo techincal assistance expert and they suggested me to remove battery and charger and press start key for 30 seconds.
My problem still remains the same, and I am unable to access boot menu.
The bios version is 62cn34ww. ls there a way I can get this running again?
AnswerPlease take note that the suggestion below is just a troubleshooting guide. If the steps could not fix the issue, you need to send you machine in for service for further assistance.
Try removing the hard disk , then press F2 button to enter BIOS
If you are successful in entering the bios, pleaes load set up defaults
Save setting by pressing F10 and shut the machine down
Connect the hard drive back and check if can enter BIOS via F2 and F12 to see boot menu

Stuck on loading boot menu - 008D

MOBO   :   MSI NF750–G55      -    Bios 1.20
CPU   :    AMD Phenom II x4 965 3.4GHz
GFX   :   XFX 9800 GX2
RAM   :   4GB kit (2GBx2), Ballistix Tracer 240-pin DIMM (with LEDs), DDR3 PC3-12800 memory module
PSU   :   AOpen AO800-12ALN 880W Power Supply Unit - 4 x 12v 20A rails
I'll start of with saying Hi, as this is my first post
I seem to be having some trouble with my Mobo/GFX card combo. If I use any other gfx card (tested 9800GTX) or the onboard I can boot fine, and my gfx card has been tested in another computer using a Lanparty mobo Phenom x2 with no problems. I have also tried their psu in my setup, just because of the non mainstream brand, although it does boast power to supply a quad SLi setup (not that I have got that far yet).
When I do have my NF750-G55 and 9800GX2 together, no-matter what is plugged in (hdd, DVD, etc.) and whatever Bios settings I have set, I get through the system specs screen, to the bottom, and it stops on the option "press F11 to load boot menu". If I do this about 5 seconds later it come up with "loading boot menu" and goes no where. I can only Ctrl + Alt + Del to reboot after this... On the lower right corner it shows the code 008D, this does flick through quickly a number of different codes when it does boot without the card so I assumed this was a code for the action its getting stuck on.
Now I have done some extensive research on this with no results of the same, also very little for this code 008D. I have also consulted 2 likewise IT minded people for assistance, both have gone through the same process I did of checking all the cables, trying different combinations, so I don't think there is much more that I can try without some more specific knowledge.

That memory is only validated to work on Intel chipset systems.
Try some AMD validated memory and see if it solves your problem.
I'm not sure how that is relevent? My motherboard isn't on there. Also I used the specific memory recommended for my motherboard by crucial.

Lenovo Ideapad S410p Touch automatically switches to Boot Menu after being idle

Hi Everyone,
I would just like to share this little issue I have with this new laptop I bought - I got this Lenovo Ideapad S410p touch from the Lenovo branch in SM Cubao, Philippines. This issue seems to repeat when I let my laptop stay idle, it would automatically go to the boot menu. After choosing the option to boot from disk drive, or pressing ESC it just goes back to boot menu and not boot the OS. Then I would need to long press and hold the power button so I could turn it off then turn it back on. Have you guys ever had this issue? I keep getting this one and have been searching the internet/forums without fruition.
Hope devs from Lenovo take a look at this one. Laptop is about a month old and is already acting up.

here are some of the pics of what it goes to when it's on idle

Lenovo U310 cannot access bios or boot menu

OK so I'm not dumb, and consider myself pretty tech-savvy.
I've got Windows 8.1 I've installed myself on the SSD.
I've tried using novo key, f2, f12, b, also windows reboot-to-bios feature, nothing works.
When using novo key, and selecting setup or boot menu, it just boots to win 8.1 anyway.
Now, I can't reflash the bios, because I'm on the newest version, and the flasher throws error 182 (bios already equal or higher version).
What do I do now to reflash the BIOS, and thus allow me to access the setup/boot menu?

Installing another OS on Lenovo B590 (model name 6274)

Hi
We recently bought a Lenovo B590 with pre-installed Windows 8, which we absolutely hated of several reasons.
We haven't used the laptop since we bought it a month ago because of Windows8, so we decided to install Windows 7 or Windows XP as an alternative, as these are the installation discs we have from other laptops.
Now, we couldn't get it to boot from CD, but have figured ot how to avoid the UEFI boot by selecting legacy in the BIOS and choosing CD / DVD as primary boot option.
After that we wiped the computer completely with Dereks Boot and Nuke and figured we then could boot from CD.
Because we haven't used the laptop, there was no data we would miss, and therefore we haven't made a windows 8 recovery CD before wiping the computer.
We then figured with BIOS set to boot from CD and no OS on the laptop, it would be piece of cake to install one of our Windows systems.
However, when trying to boot from CD the booting seems to begin, but then immidiately states that there have been an error, or returns to boot menu, depending on the installation disc.
When using a Windows 7 installation disc it just returns to boot menu again, without seeming to start booting.
Then you can select CD again and again return to menu again, soforth...
When using a Windows XP installation disc, it seems to start booting and states that an error has been found and windows has been closed down to prevent damage. Technical data&colon; STOP:0X0000007B (0XF78D2524,0XC0000034,0X00000000, 0X00000000)
It should be mentioned that the Windows 7 installation disc is originally for a Medion PC and the XP installation disc for a Dell laptop, but we didn't think this was a problem.
So - what can we do now?
Is it even possible to install Windows 7 (preferably) or Windows XP on the Lenovo B590?
If not, how do we get windows 8 back again, so it will at least be functioning.

It's a weekend, forum traffic tends to be a little slow.

LENOVO Y2P stuck at Lenovo Splash Screen

I partitioned my SSD into two parts trying to install another OS to the newly unallocated partition. Rebooted into boot menu, but couldn't find my USB drive in the menu. Anyways I said nevermind it's okay and decided to boot normally. It booted without any problem and then for whatever reason I shut down the pc. Turn it back on a little later, now it's stuck at the LENOVO splash screen, won't boot no matter what I do

Do you have a Windows 8 or 7 recovery media? If so, boot to that, enter advance options and do a system restore or boot fix (boot fix is your last option if using a Windows 7 recovery img). This might fix the boot but, the okr system is broken for good unless you purchase recovery disks.
