Lenovo IdeaCentre Q180 3110-2NU BIOS

Hello, I flash my lenovo Q180 3110-2NU BIOS with AFUDOS and get hardbrick.
I did backup BIOS (using Aptio AFUDOS 4.53) before flash BIOS.
So then for repair: I flash my BIOS flash chip on programmator with backup BIOS, but nothing helps.
There is no any full BIOS dump in public access, I have no Lenovo support and service centers in my country, other repair service centers refuse to repair my lenovo Q180, they told, that there is no Lenovo Q180 3110-2NU BIOS dump.
Please, could you share Lenovo Q180 3110-2NU BIOS dump?

There is and app call something like wflash2.exe, you can use with windows.
like this wflash2 /Logo:Logo.bmp
Create a square black in Paint and save as logo.bmp and flash it.
Logo gone....

Lenovo IdeaCentre Q180 behavior after power failure

Hi,
I need a computer which reboots itself after an power failure.
I didn't find anything about the behavior of the IdeaCentre Q180 in such case.
Does the IdeaCentre Q180 reboots itself after power failure or is it possible to enable this feature?
This behavior is very important for my new system.
Thank you for your answer.
Kind Regards,
Theodoor

Hi theodoor, welcome to the forums,
I'm not personally aquainted with the Q180, but I had a look in the BIOS simulator and I'm pretty sure the function you're looking for is available in BIOS.
Please see attached picture, (too big to post), it will open in the same window so please click your browser back button to return to this site.

How to connect my Lenovo IdeaCentre Q180 pc to my TV?

Hi
I have recently bought the above system...The main attraction for me was to link the pc to my tv to watch iplayer etc, but I am having probs with that! When I spoke to the Support Centre, the guy said my TV (Goodman Digi Model LD2661HDFVT) is not internet-enabled, and I needed an HDMI cable, which I've now got and have just connected to the pc and the tv. But the pc doesn't seem to have picked up the new device and I'm not sure how to install it? On the tv screen, there is a blank lenovo screen, but nothing else....
Any ideas how to kickstart the connection into action much appreciated! I have the hand-held portable MultiMedia Remote with Keyboard....
Thanks in anticipation!

hi Andaluciagirl,
In addition to what seayman have suggested, the 'connect to a projector' option can also be triggered by pressing the Windows logo key‌ +P. You will then see this image:
Try to choose Duplicate or Second Screen only and observe. If you're not getting the image above, try to:
1. connect the Q180 to a PC monitor via a VGA cable (see spoiler for the connection on the Q180)
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
2. press Windows logo key‌ +P > choose Duplicate or Second Screen only
3. remove the VGA cable and attach the HDMI cable
From there, the TV should be the main screen and you should see the icons, the taskbar, etc.
Let me know your findings
Regards

Ubuntu 14.04 install on Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 replacing Windows 8.1

I just purchased a Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 and would like to replace Windows 8.1 with Ubuntu 14.04. As this is a secure boot machine, is there anything I need to watch out for besides disabling secure boot? I seem to remember that there is a boot partition that I need to leave alone (?) Is there a Lenovo tool installed that can save a copy of the drive as an image? I have already saved a copy of the system to a USB stick. There seem to be some issues in connection with installing Ubuntu 14.04 (booting, wifi, bluetooth) is there an overview of the install issues for the Q190 somewhere?
Any advice appreciated.

If you are looking to entirely replace Windows on your drive, you can overwrite the entire drive, boot partition and all...
BUT...
Since you seem to want to preserve your Windows installation, you can make your life a lot easier in the long-run by simply getting another hard disk drive and swapping it out for the one which you currently have installed. (If I understand correctly, the Q190 only supports one HDD at a time)
Then you can install Ubuntu on the empty drive and not have to worry about writing a massive .iso,
testing a massive .iso and at some point in the future trying to re-install a massive .iso.
Here's a link to the user manual:
http://download.lenovo.com/consumer/desktop_pub/lenovo_ic_q190_ug_v1.0_win8_en_r_online_20130320.pdf
On page 31 it explains the BIOS options. Doing a UEFI Linux install is still quite unintuitive, though there are a few threads and video tutorials out there. If you're planning on using Linux, right now I would suggest good old legacy style.
An overview of Ubuntu install issues is a pretty tall order for any machine. External wifi and bluetooth dongles are generally a problem, though the problems are often remedied after finishing all of the recommended updates.
I could add more advice, but it will help if I know more about what you want from your machine.

EVGA Geforce GTX 960 Graphics Card won't boot on my Lenovo Ideacentre K410

PC: Lenovo Ideacentre K410
I bought it in 2012
New Graphics Card: EVGA Geforce GTX 960
New Power Supply: Corsair CX 430
Issue:
I plugged in my graphics card to my new power supply.
I get the Lenovo splash screen, then 3 beeps, then a black screen with a blinking cursor in the top left.
If I disconnect the graphics card, and just use the VGA connection, everything works fine.
How do I get my new graphics card to work on this PC?

hi mwvg79,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
If you boot in to BIOS with F1 while powering ON the computerCheck if you system supports UEFI.
UEFI/ BIOS should have a Uefi option under Boot tab or start up tab Try to set those to Legacy
If non then this is a legacy BIOS already.
also im thinking about Compatibility issues with this card, since this is not listed under the Maintenance Manual as replacement Parts.

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 E5KT20AUS

I have a Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 with Bios version E5KT20AUS and i want to update it in order to have the UEFI capability selection in the Bios Setup.
Actually the only way to boot UEFI is pressing F12 during the booting process. This is not reliable because you need to press F12 every time the PC restart.
Anyone have a Bios with this feature please share.
Thanks...

uefi is the user interface for the bios if you dont have it now and have the old style bios, you might be stuck with it as i have not came across any bios being changed from old bios to the new uefi
pressing a button is the only way to get into the bios (unless you have overclocking software that boots to bios to make adjustments) and this will not change not matter is you have the uefi or not
you can not just install any bios they are made just for that make and model of motherboard

IdeaCentre Q180 Low Framerate, Chocking with Flash Video, Hulu, etc.

Hi,
I just got the latest IdeaCentre Q180 (with 4GB RAM) and I'm disappointed that I have to spend so much time on installing drivers and configuring the system :-(
The problem:
Playing high-res DivX videos with VLC or Windows Media Player works perfectly.
HOWEVER, playing Flash-based videos such as HULU or Amazon Prime Videos result in noticeable low framerates. It is not a start and stop behavior that you have when you bandwidth is low. Actually the videos are fully buffered.
It is more like a low framerate - such as playing 3D games on a slow machine.
The CPU usage is only around 20-30%.
The Lenovo box is hooked with a HDMI cable to a TV.
What I tried:
I tried to deactivate and activate hardware accellaration in Flash without any difference.
Installed latest ATI Catalyst drivers
Installed latest Realtek wireless drivers (otherwise I had no stable Wifi connection)
Updated Windows 7

Obviously I'm not the only one with the issue:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4258364
I'm wondering what Lenovo has to say?! Anyone else has low fps?

IdeaCentre Q180 DVD drive not recognised

I have just purchased an IdeaCentre Q180 with an attached DVD drive, but it is not recognised in My Computer, and although you can initially heaar a CD or DVD drive spinning, they do not play or register on the PC.
How can I resolve this? I have seen on other posts to check in the BIOS, but am unclear how to do this.
Thank you.

Okay well to get to the BIOS on most machines (I cant remember the exact button for the Q180) you switch on the PC and the start pressing the F2 or Delete key a few times till you get the BIOS screen.
Sometimes its the F10 key but mostly Del.
Why they cant agree on one key I don't know.
Then you can take a look in the BIOS and see if the DVD shows in the drives list.

Lenovo Ideacentre Q150 Multi-Monitor ?

hello,
does anybody know if the Lenovo Ideacentre Q150 is able to manage 2 Monitors (first via VGA and second via HDMI)?

hey sysonic,
i believe it is possible as there is a HDMI output for it.

You'd need to tell us what kind of film and cameras you have. I think you'll need to buy some equipment to do that.
An alternative is to send your film to a place like Integrated Imaging and they could transfer it to DVD or another suitable format for iMovie.

PS3 (playstation3) does not connect to Lenovo Ideacentre D400 Windows Home Server

I just got the Lenovo Ideacentre D400 Windows Home Server this week. After getting it setup, my computer connected to it fine and I transferred my files over (photos, music, videos).
It was time to test out the media sharing. Alas try as I might I was not able to get the PS3 (Playstation 3) to connect or even find the D400. Any thoughts ?
I searched the net and forums where i can usually find answers but found no mention of this device which I guess is not suprising since it is new. Let me know if anyone else has this and if they have any issues

because the cpus in the 320 aren't second generation i3-i7, identified by a 2 at the start of the cpu number.
Intel offer this method for you to check your system yourself.

Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B Dual Monitor Possible?

I was wondering if there was a way to have a dual monitor setup with the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B. We have the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330B 7747 and this is for an office application so no gaming. The MTM is 77471CU. I cant seem to figure out what type of card is in there. Will I need to install a new graphics card? If so, what card would work?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Alex,
also in deinem K450 ist ein Realtek RTL8188E WLAN-Modul verbaut. Auf der Downloadseite ist dummerweise nur der Treiber für Win 8.1 hinterlegt. Ich vermute, hier wurde angenommen, dass unter Win 7 der inboxed Treiber verwendet werden kann. Laut deiner Erfahrung wird das Modul aber nicht automatisch von Windows installiert.
Bitte teste ob sich einer dieser Treiber installieren lässt:
