  • Question about Lenovo G560.

    Hello
    So, my brother bought his G560 a few days ago,but today he saw that his touchpad is not like the other G560's touchpads and there is no single picture in the whole internet of Lenovo G560 with his kind of touchpad.He contacted the official lenovo service and they told him that they have never seen such model with that kind of touchpad.The laptop is manufactured on 16.10.2010.So, I am asking : Have someone seen Lenovo G560 with this touchpad below or the laptop is fake?Thanks and sorry for my bad English.

    Hello everyone!
    I am using Lenovo G460, i guess it is not that different from G560 for the purposes of this discussion.
    I had the same problem with a blue screen. I changed settings in BIOS from AHCI to Compatible and installed XP. After that I updated BIOS from within the XP, installed all the drivers, including the AHCI driver from Lenovo website.
    Then, I go back to BIOS and change settings from Compatible to AHCI, and I get the blue screen again.
    Ok, i don't know anything about NCQ and hot swapping, which I read about on wikipedia, and which i suppose are supported by AHCI, but my question is:
    Should i now always stay with my settings as Compatible in BIOS and, therefore, never be able to use such features as NCQ and hot swapping? I repeat, that I don't know anything about AHCI or Compatible mode, but I figure that AHCI is better.
    Please help me in finding the answer, whether to stay on Compatible and forget about AHCI, or may be there is some way to solve the problem for XP users with AHCI mode.
    Thank you very much.

  • Lenovo G560 and windows 8.1

    Hi
    This question is related to a laptop (Lenovo G560) with "Intel HM55 chipset + Integrated Intel HD graphics w/ shared video memory".
    I wanted to know if windows 8.1 will run on it (At present it is running on windows 7 hom basic). The lenovo site does not have a chipset driver for windows 8 but there is one for windows 7.
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_IN/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?DocID=HT072731
    Windows 7 has following drivers -
    Intel Chipset driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)
    Intel Management Engine Interface for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)
    Windows 8 has only -
    Intel Management Engine Interface Driver for Microsoft Windows 8
    Does windows 8 does need intel chipset driver? Does windows 8.1 have a generic inbuilt driver  for this chipset?  Will it work? Please help?
    Also - will windows 7 drivers work in windows 8.1.

    hi rohit2276,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I tried checking the drivers on the Intel Websie for chipset drivers,
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Default.aspx?lang=eng
    And no drivers as well for chipset on Windows 8 and 8.1
    The Chipset HM55 is fully supported on WIndows 8 thus not needing additional Software installation.
    Yes the Windows 7 Drivers should work by doing a manual installation , but those are not recommended.
    Since Windows 8 drivers are released for this model it means that the system should do fine with Windows 8 /8.1

    I mean is there a way to use it? or does my laptop have only the Intel HD?
    Is there any way to ugrade the graphics card on it?

    hi g4m3fr34k,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Lenovo g560 has a configuration with discrete Nvidia.
    You can check this G560 datasheet
    http://www.lenovo.com/shop/americas/content/pdf/notebooks/Essential/G-Series/G560%20datasheet.pdf
        Discrete graphics is an optional feature when ordered, These discrete graphics are soldered to the motherboard
    You can send me your Serial number Through Private Message let me check your system config. if it came with an Nvidia. but Normally you can check this under your Device Manager / Display Adapter it should show you two graphics device Intel and Nvidia.
    From the same Lenovo Data sheet
       Lenovo g560 RAm can be upgraded till 8GB and on the system's Maintenance Manaual
    you can see compatible Processors.
    and you can check the Manual about proper CPU replacement procedure.
    Changing the CPU which contains the Intel HD graphics will possibly change the Intel HD graphics model.
    but I believe adding a discrete Nvidia on a non Nvidia motherboard is not possible.

  • Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade

    Lenovo G560 - Issue with won't boot and black screen after HDD upgrade.
     What happen: My laptop was working fine, no blue screen issue, no funny business at all. I bought a new SSD Intel 120 GB and thought it would be a good idea to replace the HDD. I shutdown and disconnected the power adapter, waited a couple of minutes and removed the battery. I opened up the back case and replaced the HDD. And put all the screws back and put the battery back in.
    Problem: The very first time I turned the power on, nothing happens besides a black screen. I pressed the dvd drive it works and opens up and closes. I waited for about 30 mins and still has blac screen. When I mean black screen, no bios menu, no logo, just a black screen with the fan sound on.
    I have tried these:
    1. Unplugged everything - battery, adapter, and pressed the power on button for about 60 seconds, nothing, the laptop turns on with the LED display on for both on and battery LED's. But nothing but black screen, no sound of windows loading just the fan and black screen.
    2. I tried putting back my old 2.5" and nothing but black screen.
    Thoughts and suggestions?

    Lenovo G560 , Windows 7
    Elan Smart-pad (v7.4)
    The driver provided in the CD which came with my laptop doesn not feature the two scroll function. There are no availavle for download drivers at the Elan Smart-Pad site and on Lenovo's drivers webpage there is only the version of the drivers im currently using -  the ones my laptop came with. Why should it be so hard to get such a simple function working? I got finger scrolling to work even in Ubuntu with some Synaptics drivers which doesnt seam to work on windows. I would apreciate some help from you!

    hi chaushev,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Can you try to install the driver below:
    TouchPad Driver (Synaptics, Elan)
    0lto15ww.exe
    267MB
    If the hardware supports it. the ELAN settings should now show the Veritical / Horizontal scrolling options (see spoiler):

  • Lenovo G560 not booting. CPU Fan 100%. No output on screen or VGA

    I have a Lenovo G560
    When I power on, the fan is steady for the first 5 seconds, then it spins faster and stays like that. No output from the screen at all. 
    External VGA does not present any output either. HDD doesn't spin and nor does the light turn on. Removed and reseated memory modules as well as HDD. No change. 
    Purchased a replacement LCD screen as the current one was cracked the when laptop hit the floor! Therefore I'm thinking something's completely screwed the laptop up or is it a case of a loose connection.
    Next thing I was going to try was to disconnect the CMOS battery which would hopefully reset the bios - Can anyone shed any light on this? I believe it's under the keyboard and I have the remove the top chassis. I know that it may be soldered on as well...Any advise or help is appreciated.
    Thanks, Mitesh

    hi mitster,
    To access the CMOS battery, you need to remove the keyboard and the top cover. From there, just turn the motherboard over to remove the CMOS battery. (see page 54-57 of the hardware maintenance manual detailed instructions).
    If reseating the CMOS battery doesn't give you a display, try to reseat the CPU. If still the same problem, the Intel HD graphics in the processor or the motherboard probably got damaged when the laptop fell into the floor. If you're near a local laptop repair facility, I recommend you take it there to test the motherboard / CPU.
    Hope this helps.

  • Black screen with underscore after updating ubuntu on Lenovo G560

    hello everybody, I'm new here. I looked for this problem online during the past few days but I haven't found a solution. I have a Lenovo G560 and I divided my hard drive into two partition, I installed Ubuntu on C:\ and Windows on D:\ and I haven't had any problem, but after updating ubuntu to version 14 my computer couldn't boot anymore. the bios loads and I see the Lenovo icon but then I just get a black screen with an underscore (not a blinking underscore), I tried booting from a bootable USB stick but the same thing happened (I put it as the first device to boot from in BIOS settings). can anyone please tell me what are my other options ? what should I try now ? thanks in advance and have a good day !

    Hi s, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Try this:
    Hold down the Option+Command (Apple)PR keys, boot/restart your MBP while continuing to hold down those four keys, and after you hear the startup chime for the second time, release the keys. That should reset your PRAM and resolve the issue.
    If the issue persists, while you're booted into Open Firmware, just after the prompt, type in:
    reset-nvram
    then press return, then type in:
    reset-all
    and press return. This should restart your MBP and it should go back to starting normally.

  • Lenovo G560 OneKey Recovery 7.0 error code 0xEB1b068A

    Hi 
    I recently purchased a Lenovo G560. First I turned it on I've tried to create DVD recovery (Default factory discs) but this error occured during the process: Failed: error code 0xEB1b068A. the softwar I used was neKey Recovery 7.0.
    I had tried it twice but it wasted me two DVDs already. I looked up on the web and I've notices that it's a common problem of the lenovo think-pad computers.
    If any one has the same problem that he resolved or if there is anyone who knws something about the issue please post your answers.
    Thank you
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Admin note - this discussion had been combined with other discussion on OKR, but since this error code is specific and we have several different discussions already with different potential causes, it may be worth keep this one separate so that we can hopefully arrive at a specific solution on this case.
    Pooryamd,
    Thanks for your suggested solution based on that KB article.
    We've seen this error code come up a couple times year, and one scenario had to do with changes to the partition sizes. 
    So, aklee13, did you change any of the partitions?
    Another reason for the errror code might be that you are not running as the administrator on the system - if you have multiple user IDs on your system - if you are sharing the PC with someone else and have a log on for them.  Try right click and run as administrator.
    Searching a bit, I find same error code reported for ASUS system, so this doesn't seem to be a Lenovo unique issue, maybe something underlying in Windows.  Not assigning blame, just saying that there may be somethign going on that isn't specific to One Key Recovery.
    Can you tell us a bit more about your system and situation.  Have you made any changes to the system since you got it?  What kind of DVDs are you using?  Brand and type.
    The more you can share with the community, the more we can help.

  • LENOVO G560 WARRANTY UPDATE

    I own a LENOVO G560 laptop. I bought it on 23-6-2010. This shows that I have warranty covered till 23-6-2011. Now I got a problem in my laptop and i took it to service center. the service person told me that MOTHERBOARD IS TO BE REPLACED, and also he told me to BOOK A COMPLAINT WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSONNEL. I too did the same and customer service personnel said that my warranty is not updated and so HE ASKED TO SEND A SCANNED COPY OF MY INVOICE. I did that too and im waiting for getting my warranty updated Now my problems are, *) can i get my warranty updated within 48 hours of sending (as mentioned by that personnel) *) If it got late and exceeded 23-6-2011, then my warranty will be expired. can i still get my laptop serviced and motherboard replaced FULLY FREE OF COST. *) Notice that my laptop got repaired before my warranty expires. Still I am MADE to worry whether i can get access to my rights Please help me as soon as possible

    Hi tog1966,
    I'm sorry that your warranty status is not up-to-date as it supposed to be. Usually, the resellers would send in a list of sold products to Lenovo for a batch upate of warranty. However, i'm not sure about the frequency of getting the list.
    In regard to your case, you can check with your reseller for the warranty update. Alternatively, you could PM me the details below and i'll see what i can do.
    Full Name
    Machine Type Model
    Serial Number
    Phone Contact

    Proof of purchase(receipt of the purchase that clearly state the machine serial number and purchase date)
