Lenovo Enhanced Experience 8 and Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430

Hi,
My Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 is listed in the "supported W8" systems, http://shop.lenovo.com/gbweb/gb/en/learn/products/ee8/index.html
But what is "Lenovo Enhanced Experience 8"? Should be some software available? Should be something available? So far, I got my hands over some drivers (card reader, hotkey, active protection system) and little more. Should something else be installed in the notebook to improve it's performance?
If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

Lenovo Thinkpad Edge S430 ticking noise

Hi all,
My Lenovo Thinkpad Edge S430 has started making some ticking noise coming from the left corner of the laptop. If any video is on sometimes the voice disappears for a few seconds after the intensified ticking. Slightly pressing down the speakers helps stopping the noise for a short while. Any idea what the issues could be and how I could solve them?
Thanks a lot for your help!!
Maria

All I can say is that it's an error in the marketing material.
I'm 100% certain that this feature does not exist on any ThinkPad Edge system, including your S430. There is not any possibility to add this feature because the hardware that makes it possible does not exist on ThinkPad Edge. It's not a case of providing some new software or BIOS to enable the feature.
If this is a feature that you require, and you bought your S430 based on this faulty marketing material, I suggest that you call the sales support phone number in your country and ask them how they want to handle it. I'm very sorry for this trouble caused by wrong marketing material.

Lenovo Thinkpad Edge S430 SSD cache not working???

Hi guys,
I just got my S430 a couple of days ago. Installed Windows 8 x64 (RTM).
Everything was working ok. More or less. But now SSD cache just "dissapeared". Whenever I try to initialize it from the computer manager it throws a I/O error, and the installer cannot identify the SSD.
Ideas? Is it dead? (within a week of buying it!!! )
If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

Thanks for your reply, lead_org. My apologies, I didn't see the reply before.
Is not the mSATA port, but the mSATA SSD. It's being detected, both in W7 and W8, both in this machine and in a Lenovo E420s. But it's not working at all (I/O error, yada yada).
Thing is, to ask for the warranty, Lenovo wants me to send the whole notebook. And I need it to work, so it's a no-go.
I guess I just lost 35 bucks of the mSATA SSD cost. :@

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 mSATA SSD

Hi,
I'd like to install a proper SSD hard drive instead of the built-in 32GB SSD Cache drive. In the manual I've read, that it is not recommended/possible, to install a mSATA disk as a boot disk.
Why is it not possible to use the internal mSATA slot for booting? Is it going to destroy anything or doesn't it work properly or which reason prevents the usage of the internal mSATA slot instead of the SSD cache?

That is a great idea. I have a Mushkin Atlas 128GB mSATA, and it is fantastic. I would highly recommend it. Whatever you do, avoid OCZ like the pague... those things get sent back far too frequently to trust.

Intel 4000 graphics failure both windows and linux on thinkpad edge s430

After 5-30 minutes the screen breaks up in flickering (or just black) and system freezes. I need to turn off computer. After restart the error occurs again quickly.
This occurs regardless if I boot to windows or into a linux bootable dvd.
But
Remote desktop connection to the computer and it works fine for days .
->
Thus I believe it is the intel 4000 graphics that has some hardware failure which is not invoked upon remote desktop.
I wonder if this is a known issue?
I wonder if only a replacement of the intel 4000 graphics will fix this (this probably means replacing the main board entirely?)
Or
If it is in any way likely that it is _only_ because maybe thermal paste between cooler and cpu/graphics is slipping?
Lenovo Thinkpad Edge S430
Intel I7 + Intel HD 4000

Have you tried setting up the connection manually?
e.g.
/etc/init.d/networkmanager stop
#Unlock wireless devices
rfkill unblock all
#enable interface
ifconfig wlan0 up
#check network visibility
iwlist wlan0 scanning
#configure wifi
iwconfig wlan0 essid <ESSID>
iwconfig tx auto
and then set up wpa_supplicant in case you use WPA2!
#Get ip address
dhclient wlan0
One thing I regularly miss when getting a new wifi device is to add it to the MAC filter list of my router, so check if the MAC address is added there...

Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E540 - Graphic card recognition and blue Screens BSOD

Hi, I'm having MAJOR troubles with Windows 8.1 64 Bit latest version on a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E540.Effects are:- Startup and BSOD - DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE - SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED - DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL- Serveral effects on the Nvidia GT740M in the device manager not detected or driver could not start - not detected in device manager - detected, but driver not started    Die Treiber für dieses Gerät wurden nicht installiert. (Code 28)
    Es sind keine kompatiblen Treiber für dieses Gerät vorhanden.
    Klicken Sie auf "Treiber aktualisieren", um einen Treiber für dieses Gerät zu finden. - Updated e.g. Intel Bluetooth driver: => seen, but driver could not be started, deactivated/activated device => OK BIOS version is latest version available today. Latest Intel driver available from Lenovo is very old from 20.12.2013, 10.18.10.3379Nvidia GT740M driver: 9.1.2015, 9.18.13.4725, also older driver don't work reliable. @Lenovo: Please provide newer drivers for Intel HD 4600 and Nvidia GT740M which work reliable on Thinkpad Edge E540 !!!!! Thank you. Gerhard

No, they want swap the motherboard for free (I've also bough a 3 year additional warranty). I've to reinstall the Windows system to "proove" that it also not working correctly. And still not possible to destinguish between the 3 theoretical options listed below. Otherwise they will charge 380EUR + the price for the motherboard (guessing 200 EUR) which is not acceptable. Theoretically only the cause which are possible are:- Hardware problem
- Driver problem
- Windows OS problem I also uninstalled all graphic card drivers (Intel HD4600 and Nvidia GT740M driver in safe mode with Driver uninstaller). Rebooted. Afterwards with opened device manager to see the graphic card devices I was installing the latest driver package. Intel HD4600 driver installs well, when the Nvidia GT740M driver will be installed computer crashes instantly.https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-edge-laptops/thinkpad-edge-e540/downloads/DS039880

Black screen after suspend on a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E525

Hi everyone!
I own a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E525 which is running Arch. After waking up my laptop from suspend mode, the screen stays black and the laptop doesn't seem to respond to any input (even the SysReq keys don't seem to be working
I followed the instructions from the wiki (especially the laptop specific page and the pm-utils page), but it still doesn't work.
I'd be happy to provide more information if necessary.
Many thanks in advance,
ElVirolo.

Any other insights?
I'm having this same problem on my Thinkpad T60. Both suspend-to- disk and -to-ram result in a system which does not respond. The crescent moon led indicator stays lit after resume. At first there's some disk activity and then nothing.
My system worked fine about a week ago, but after upgrading (to kernel 3.3.2-1 among other things), I haven't been able to suspend properly anymore. I have tried all sorts of fixes in the wikis and around the net, but nothing at all seems to help.
Has anybody else had suspend/resume problems after recent upgrades?
Edit: Also, after trying to resume, I can hear the fan beginning to rotate. Though the laptop seems to be unable to wake up, the fan is active. I also assume the CPU is under a heavy load as the laptop gets quite hot on on the left side.
Edit: Downgrading kernel does not help.
Edit 2:
Ok, this is weird.
I normally don't have the module (snd-hda-intel) for my sound card loaded. As soon as I load it manually, at least suspend begins to work normally. Why is this?
Is there a way to tell the kernel not to touch the module when resuming from suspend? I have the module blacklisted.

Bios protection from infection with virus or bios recovery of Lenovo Thinkpad Edge e545

I have Lenovo Thinkpad Edge e545 laptop. Among downloads there are no bios images but only backup cd iso file. Does laptop bios somehow protected from beeing infected with virus when OS installed on laptop is infected? If not, is there a way to recover bios from usb flash? Or is there some other way to recover already infected bios without help of technical support center?

Dear Wyacheslav1
Welcome in lenovo community
Actually there is no relationship between the Virus and the BIOS also the BIOS cannot be infected such as the windows . So if you have any debut that your machine has been attacked by a Virus, you can install any antivirus application to scan for this virus and to protect the machine from such attack
Thanks

Lenovo thinkpad edge 11 nvy44rt

Добрый день!Не могу найти на сайте специйикацию к ноутбуку. Помогите, пожалуйста.Интересует какой максимальный объем оперативной памяти поддерживает ноутбук? В различных интернет магазинах написано до 8. Случайно попал на сайт кингстон, там указано, что 4гб (2 планки по 2 гб). Где правда? В самый последний момент увидел, почти купил на 8гб. Если такое дело, то напрасно бы потратил деньги. И второй вопрос. Возможно ли заменить процессор на этом ноутбуке? На некоторых форумах прочитал, что проц припаян. Возможно ли отпаять, а главное подобрать другой проц, помощнее без каких либо доп. вмешательств в материнку(кроме процесса припаивания)?

Приветствую
Код модели NVY44RT - это некий маркетинговый код, а не код в формате Machine-Type-Model (MTM), по которому ноут идентифицируется на сайте Lenovo. Зачем был введен такой код для ряда моделей ноутов и стран - я сказать не могу, но путаницу он создает очень большую.
Реальный код модели Вашего ноута, MTM, скорее всего - 032844G или 254544G, для процессоров Intel и AMD, соответственно.
Проверяйте спецификацию на сайте поддержки, а не на сайтах магазинов, ямаркете и подобных агрегаторов.
Детальная спецификация платформы Edge 11:
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-edge-laptops/thinkpad-edge-11/documents/PD011050?tabName=ProductParts
Как видите, официально ноут поддерживает максимум 4 ГБ оперативной памяти. Но это может быть и не так. Проверяйте на ark.intel спецификации применяемых в ноуте процессоров (по их индексу). По крайней мере процессоры Intel поддерживают 8 ГБ, (AMD я не смотрел). Это значит, что если на уровне BIOS ноута нет запрета на установку планок по 4 ГБ (а его нет, смотрите документ ниже), ноут должен работать с 8 ГБ памяти.
Процессор запаян на плате, смотрите страницу о запчастях ноута:
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-edge-laptops/thinkpad-edge-11/documents/PD000599
Если мое предположение о MTM Вашего ноута верно, то в нем установлен процессор Intel ULV i3-380UM либо AMD Athlon II Neo Dual-Core K345, запаянный (см.позицию 4 в списке, "Systemboard assembly", это плата в сборе). Для замены процессора требуется специальное оборудование, т.н.паяльная станция. Теоретически, заменить процессор можно в СЦ. Если процессор будет из списка совместимых и того же производителя, то никаких дополнительных доработок не должно потребоваться.

Планируется ли замена Lenovo ThinkPad Edge e145

Здравствуйте!
Хотел приобрести Lenovo ThinkPad Edge e145, но эти ноутбуки недавно закончились в продаже (либо остались по невменяемым ценам), никакой альтернативы больше не вижу. С сайта Леново этот ноутбук тоже убрали, модель 13 года, планируется ли новая серия этой модели и если планируется, то когда ожидать?
Спасибо.

Hello Alexander,
Just found your question as I am thinking of doing the same. Buying an Thinkpad Edge E145 without any OS from Germany and replacing the keyboard with one for my location.
With some searching I have been able to answer one of your questions. This is probably too late to help you, but it might help others is a similar situation.
- Can you change the keyboard of the E145 without too much trouble and replace it with a French layout ?
Definately yes.
1) Here's a Youtube video showing how to do it.
Lenovo Laptop Change keyboard ThinkPad EDGE new model
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27fPRfy9bec
2) Find the FRU part number from the E145 FRU listing
http://download.lenovo.com/parts/ThinkPad/e145_fru_bom_20131014.pdf
FRU - Description
04Y0482 - FRU Dutton-KBD UKE CHY (UK Keyboard)
04Y0464 - FRU Dutton-KBD FRA CHY (French Keyboard)
3) The hardest part seems to be finding the keyboard of choice at a resonable price.
Thanks,
Mike

System recovery Thinkpad Edge S430, HELP...

Hi,
Can anyone please help me with the system recovery of Thinkpad Edge S430. I just created a recovery DVD and tried to install the windows back to factory settings. But suddenly my PC has formatted all drives, including my recovery drive. Can anyone please help me with the recovery of my laptop? Please.....

IT WORKS!!! I just received my Apple Thunderbolt to Firewire Adapter and connected it with a RME Fireface 800 Audiointerface. ASIO Low Latency is perfect and the recording also works flawless!
The Device is recognized as a standard OHCI LSI IEEE 1394-Controller in Windows!
The Pity is I forgot to order a HDMI Adapter for my second screen, which was connected via thunderbolt before.
