Lenovo g500 windows 10 problem?

>>> Moved to the proper forum

Good day.
The G500 is not currently included in the system compatibility list: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht103535
You should keep an eye on that list as it is being updated fairly regularly.
If / when drivers become available, you should be able to find them in your system's support pages:

Lenovo G500 Windows 7 AMD radeon Driver

Hello i have recently installed Windows 7 in my Lenovo G500 but i cant seem to find The AMD radeon driver anywhere..please help.

Yes, it is either 5.0.1 or 5.0.2, not sure which.
But it would likely require you purchase Mountain Lion to upgrade. But you can update to 10.7.5 for free to see what you get.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

Lenovo G500 WIndows 10 drivers

Tomorrow Windows 10 will be released. I want to upgrade from Windows 8.1, but the Lenovo G500's drivers for Windows 10 aren't released yet. Will be the drivers released tomorrow or Lenovo G500 will not receive update for drivers ?

Hi IRazvan, welcome to the forum.
Here is the Lenovo Windows 10 supported device list:

Unfortunately, I don't see the G500 on this list, which means there will be no additional drivers released for that device.

Particular configurations of a computer model may include hardware components not compatible with Windows 10. Therefore, its upgrade to Windows 10 is not recommended.

Failed to load detection driver

hi kiranhaardy,
For units with switchable graphics (Intel + AMD), it's normal for dxdiag to show the Intel HD Graphics as it's the primary GPU that the system uses before it switches to the AMD Graphics.
The several errors that you saw on the Intel HD Graphics might explain the flickering issue that you have as this indicates video memory errors. I recommend that you report these findings by contacting lenovo as you may need to send the unit for service.

Help needed!!!!!!! G500 Bluetooth Problem

The bluetooth on my Lenovo g500 (windows 8.1) is not working anymore. Other devices don't discover it and the laptop itself won't connect with any device either! What do i do?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you just updated to 8.1 and have not updated the hardware drivers for the Bluetooth module, I would recommend doing so before proceeding further. if you installed software, uninstall and see if problem is corrected. If occurred after windows update, remove updates and check to see if problem is corrected.
If problem still persists, you may need to troubleshoot or replace the Bluetooth module directly. If you are not comfortable with removing internal parts or your system is under warranty, take the notebook to a repair center and have them test the hardware, and replace if needed.
You need to know that all replacement parts with the exception of hard disk drives and memory moudules must be "Lenovo" branded, and not meant for HP or Dell computers or a generic replacement. Only Lenovo branded parts will work with your notebook, provided by Lenovo or an authorized service center.

I don't have a similar machine to look at so this is a bit of a guess:
Per page 30 or your user's guide http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/mobiles_pub/lenovo_g400sg400stouchg500sg500stouchg405sg505s_ug_e...:
How can I start the BIOS setup utility?
To start the BIOS setup utility:
1 Shut down the computer.
2 Press the Novo button and then select BIOS Setup
There should be a tab labelled something like "Configuration" and on that page something like "SATA controller mode". Select "compatible" and save and exit.
I'm not certain this will fix your problem, but it's worth a try.

Lenovo G500S Touch (WIndows 8) Drops Wireless

I am having problems with my new Lenovo G500S Touch with Windows 8 where it drops my wireless connection. I have other laptops (Windows 7 and 8) and these are all fine. I have worked with Lenovo support since 8/7 with no resolution and was sent to Advanced Support and now they expect me to pay for assistance!!! They say it's a software issue but have not proven it's a software issue.
I have updated the drivers
I have made sure all of the Power Options are set to Maximum
I have gone through numerous posts on Wireless Connectivity issue and Windows 8 to no avail.
Any assistance from this group would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

hi mmckenerick,
Welcome to the Forums.
Your issue might be similar to this thread.
If you have already updated the wifi drivers, booted in Safe mode with networking and yet to no avail, It's possible that the wi-fi cable connectors are loose and causes the wifi signal to drop.
Try to:
1. Turn the computer OFF and remove the AC adapter and battery.
2. Re-seat the wi-fi cable connectors (see page 44 of the hardware maintenance manual).
3. Re-insert the AC adapter and battery, then the computer ON, boot into Windows and observe the wi-fi connection.
Let me know your findings
Regards

Lenovo y40 Windows 10 problem

Hey guys,
So i updated to windows 10 and I started to have the same internal power error blue screen problem that everyone had. I tried to fix it but I couldnt however, now I dont even get the blue screen error anymore, my mouse just freezes within 3 seconds of me logging on and I cant move it at all. I know its probably a amd graphics card error but since I cant use my mouse at all I dont have time to go to device manager to uninstall amd drivers as many have suggested. So I do a safe boot and can use my mouse then but everytime I uninstall the amd driver it doesnt show up in unrecognized devices but just comes back under display adapters when I refresh. Can someone please help me with this problem ans let me know how to fix it please? Thanks.

Problems with sytem recovery on Lenovo G500s

Hello, I am new to Lenovo Community.
I have purchased Lenovo G500s just two months ago. Now I am having problem with System Restore. The system is not creating any system restore on its own and when I go to System Protection under System Properties, an error message pops up. Also software like Revo Uninstaller is not able to create a restore point before uninstalling a software (it just stops responding saying creating a restore point).
I am also attaching two screenshots showing the error messages.

Please help me get this fixed as I believe System Restore is an important feature and I would be making sure that I have restore points made in case I need to restore in future.

Hi Debdutta,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that automatically “System Restore” points are not creating in your G500s Laptop, below are the steps to check and resolve the issue and make sure you un-install any third party Tuning software.
Click on Win+R key together to open Run Window.
Now type in services.msc in the search programs and files and hit enter.
Now you need to check for the “volume shadow copy” service present in the services windows.
After selecting the “volume shadow copy” service you need to right click on the service and select properties and make the startup type as automatic and start the service.
Click ok, restart the computer and check for the issue.
Hope this helps!!!
Do post us back if the issue still persists.

i got a new lenovo desktop windows 8.1,installed itunes and synced my iphone 4 no problems. then i imported a cd of songs which showed up in recently added but not in main library ,therefore it did not sync to the iphone. how can i get new songs to appear in the main library and sync properly
thanks
john

Check the songs are really not in the Music section of the library by clicking the magnifying glass in the search box and unticking Search Entire Library if it is ticked, then typing in the name of the album. If the tracks still don't show try closing iTunes and deleting a hidden file called sentinel from inside your iTunes folder. This should make iTunes run an integrity check on the database when you start it again. Make sure the tracks are checked before you try syncing again.

hi hakaa,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
If I'm not Mistaken you want to boot the system to your Installation Media,right?
First you can try the hitting F12 when you press the power to turn it ON.
If your Lucky the BIOS is already configured and hitting F12 should give you the Boot menu and will let you choose to boot from CD/DVD, HDD or USB.
If hitting F12 did not give you Boot Menu Option,
Turn the system ON and start hitting F2, Now This will Let you Boot into the BIOS and will give you option to change the Boot sequence,
Hope this info helps,
Please let s know if you have further questions,
Thanks,
Solid Cruver

Lenovo G500 No WIndows 10 drivers

I have a Lenovo G500 I5. I bought it at the beginning of last year(2014).I read on one of your forums that you will not be updating the G500's drivers to be compatable with Windows 10.Is this true?If this is not true, I would like to know when it will be available? If this is true; i politely suggest that you change your tune very quickly!!!If this is the kind of after sale service one can expect from Lenovo then i do not know how you have remained in business this long???Please inform me when you make the drivers available as I cannot reconcile myself with the fact that Lenovo will maintain this position. If Lenovo does not update the drivers, I will discontinue my support of your product!

yeah mee too ... suffering from it .... thinking of returning my lenovo g500 and go for dell lappys :]

Lenovo G500 Graphic card problem

Hello
I have bought brand new Lenovo G500 (Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU 2020M @ 2.40 GHz 2.40 AMD Radeon HD8570mGHz 8GB Ram) without system in it. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate here, and I cant install graphic card.
I downloaded AMD drivers and when I turn on my notebook again, in manager graphic card is off, because of error 43.
Can I ask for fast reply ? I'm keep fighting with it 2 days in row.

Does the computer feel overly warm when the errors occur? If so the Video Card may be overheating, or have a hardware issue. If your notebook is under warranty - would suggest contacting Lenovo Support directly for service.
