Lenovo L520 Looping after upgrade of windows 7 ultimate
I have upgraded my Lenovo L520 to Windows 7 ultimate after I had to change a faulty HDD all seemed to load ok onto the new seagate HDD from USB device downloaded from www.royaltechsavers.com.
However when you turn the laptop on you just get Lenovo page saying press enter to enter bios and this keeps repeating (Looping)
Thanks for your reply. Have resolved the problem. I took the hard drive out and formatted it back to a blank drive and reloaded windows. However have downloaded all the drivers but cant get the internal Wi-Fi working light is showing on the laptop. I have to use an external adapter to receive any signals

Lenovo driver issues after upgrade to Windows 10
Hi, i recently upgraded my Y50 to windows 10 after i got the notification. Now the Fn+F6 to disable the trackpad and Fn+F5 for airplane mode don't work. others seem to be working properly. I was unable to find any rivers. Also, i noticed that league of legends now runs at 60fps when uncapped, while previously it ran at about 180. I am not sure if the nvidia graphics card is being detected or if it is using the intel one.
the problem has been fixed by 1- reinstalled win 10 2- win 10 removed intel hd 5500 driver as expected , but i didnt update it manually nor by update from device manager nor make any changes , so i ran windows 10 update tool from system and made all 100% update after restart things are ok now every thing is ok and new intel hd 5500 driver has been installed by win 10 update tool : 10.18.15.4248 //driver date : 29/06/2015 also invidia 840m driver has been updated thanx for any try to help and if any one still stuck with black screen the problem is that win 10 read two monitors instead of 1 so you have to click "windows button + P while black screen already on " and try to hit and click on first choise or other choises till you can see the desktop , sure u cant see any thing while u are trying to choose but you should try or may be you connect another monitor or tv and fix this issue by win button + P good luck

Wifi problem of G560 after upgrading to windows 8.1
Hi,
I have a lenovo G560. After upgrading from windows 8 to windows 8.1, I cannot connect to wifi. I was wondering if someon else has the same problem.hi amardoukhi,
Welcome to the Forums.
Your issue might be similar to this thread. Try the solution that was posted to rollback to an older driver version.
The solution was to:
1. Open Device Manager (press WInkey+R > type devmgmt.msc)
2. On the Device Manager, navigate to Network Adapters > right click on the wireless adapter and choose Update Driver Software
- Link to picture
3. On the Driver Update Window, choose Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer and choose the wireless card on the list.

Re: NB200-134 - FN key not working after upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate
My FN keys of NB200-134 is not working after upgrading from Windows 7 starter to Windows 7 ultimate. I tried installing every drivers found on Toshiba website for my lappy but still it does not work.
Help pleaseHi asalamk,
The FN keys are controlled by Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility. I think you have forgotten to install these tools
You should check the Toshiba page again and download both tools. Start with installation of Value Added Package then restart your notebook. After this install Flash Cards Support Utility. Once again restart and all FN keys should work properly now. -
Drivers issue for Lenovo u400 after upgrading to Windows 8
I recently upgraded to windows 8 an after that facing driver issue for ATI Radeon graphic card and wifi, and also cypress trackpad software is not working. All the supported drivers provided by Lenovo for windows 8 are fake and none of them are working. I even tried to search for drivers for graphic card from AMD website but unable to find any suitable drivers.
And to my surprise when i called lenovo technical support for help, the representative told that no such upgradation is possible for older system, but in Lenovo wesite it is clearly mentioned that upgradion is possible and they are provinding windows 8 drivers for this model which does not works at all :-(
Kindly some one suggest some workaround for this issue.
Solved!
Go to Solution.I had the same problems with the Cypress driver after upgrading to Windows. Based on I did I downloaded the Windows 8 driver for the Ideapad U300s and it works GREAT. There were no compatibility issues, shows up in Device Manager etc. It also has and icon on the task bar that responds to the F6 key for disabling. Best yet this driver has a Palm Rejection tab. I set it for heavy and no wild pointer movements so I find I now keep the trackpad enabled. NOTE: the file name of the driver I downloaded and installed is: Ogt102w8. Hope this helps you and can't figure out why Lenovo has a driver listed for the U400 that does not work while this driver works great.

T430u hangs after upgrading to Windows 8.1
Hi, after upgrading to Windows 8.1 my Lenovo T430u started to freeze on some applications (specially ms Excel 2013). Sometimes the network connection was lost.
I did a clean install of Windows 8.0 and after downloading and reinstalling all drivers everything was working perfectly. Until I upgraded to Windows 8.1 again.
Now I'm having the exact same issues than I had when I first upgraded to Windows 8.1. I have installed all OS patches as suggested by Windows Update.
Is there any Windows 8.1 OS image that I can download from Lenovo that is tested for my machine? Or should I go back and reinstall Windows 8.0 and live with it?
Thanks
AdriánI have the same problem - my data had better not be gone! Why won't Apple address this problem?

No Audio Output after Upgrading to windows 7; Soundblaster Card is installed
After upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), I found that my speakers (which are built into my HP w2207 monitor) are not recognized. In the notification area I have the speaker with a red x in it, and it says “No Audio Output Device is installed”.
I have a HP Pavilion D4890Y with the Sound Blaster Audigy X-FI 24-Bit Xtreme sound card. I tried looking in Device Manager, and found “Multimedia Audio Controller” under Other, which states no drivers could be found.
I tried following some of the advice online, and downloaded the latest Realtek High Definition Audio drivers, but and the download seems to run successfully, but I don’t notice any differences. When I reboot as prompted, I’ve still got the same error.
I then tried forcing the Audio Device to use a Realtek driver, but Windows protests (saying it’s not sure it’s compatable with my device, and I end up with “Realtek High Definition Audio” under “Sound, video and game controllers”, but it has a yellow exclamation point. If I click properties, the device status says “This device cannot start (Code 10).” If I try to update the driver I get the message that it cannot find the driver software. If I uninstall the driver I’m back to the original problem (multimedia audio controller under original devices, with no known drivers).
I also tried downloading various files from the Creative site, but it’s not clear which one to use, and the 4 or 5 different ones I tried (including their recommended beta version for Windows 7), when each of them opens it says it can’t find any supported devices.
Suggestions? Thanks!
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi,
"If the driver is a previous revision install it using the TROUBLESHOOT COMPATIBILITY tool that is part of the Windows 7 OS.
To use the tool, uninstall any drivers for the sound card you show listed in Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall Programs list. Delete the Device from Device Manager.
Download the revision of the driver from www.creative.com website to a folder you've created and placed on your desktop.
After the driver is downloaded, navigate to the "setup.exe" of the driver and Right Click - select Troubleshoot Compatibility ----
Let the compatibility tool select a possible solution then use its suggestion of TRY RECOMMENDED WINDOWS SETTINGS, if it does not find a solution it will submit only CUSTOMIZE SETTINGS and let you install it as you designate."
The preceding information comes from a Microsoft Windows 7 forum regarding an issue similar to yours.
the information you provided did verify that it is a sound blaster XiFi Extreme card as checked against the Vendor / Device list.
regards,
erico

After upgrading from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Enterprise (x64) Service Pack 1 (build 7601), I cannot find working drivers for my ethernet controller. The desktop is a HP Pavillion, Model
No. p6710f. I located the drivers on HP's website, but Windows 7 Enterprise
is not listed as compatible. Compatibility list:
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Basic (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Professional (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit), Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
The original driver (according to HP's site) is a Realtek PCIe Family networking controller, Version:7.26.902.2010 Rev. A.
I tried contacting HP, but apparently I voided their warranty once I upgraded to Windows 7 Enterprise. I do not have a support plan with Microsoft because the operating system was purchase through TechSoup (nonprofit). I greatly appreciate your help;
let me know if you need more information.On Fri, 15 Jul 2011 21:36:53 +0000, microsoft_questions wrote:

Windows 7 Ultimate and Enterprise are essentially the same with regard
to their software. Only the license is different. So if it's
compatible with Ultimate, it's also compatible with Enterprise.

Intel Graphics no longer works after upgrade to Windows 8.1
Upgraded to Windows 8.1. The Intel HD 4000 Graphics Driver no longer loads. Device manager reports an error (43). Can only use Generic Non PnP Monitor. Any word on when this will be fixed?
Driver version: 10.18.10.3316
Thinkpad W530Hi,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that Intel graphics driver is not working in your Lenovo ThinkPad W530 after updating to Windows 8.1.
Try updating your chipset drivers and ensure that you have enabled onboard graphics in BIOS. Try to install Windows 8 driver and check if it helps.
This issue has been discussed at Intel community forums and they are working with Microsoft to get this issue fixed. Hope they will resolve the issue on priority and come up with an update. As of now, the only work around is to roll back the system to Windows 8 and wait for an update or patch.
Best regards,
Mithun.

Dolby Home Theater v4 not working after upgrading to Windows 10
Hi there, I just upgraded to Wndows 10 Home from Windows 8.1; everything went smoothly except for the fact that Dolby Home Theater v4 does not work. I had to reinstall it using the .msi file found in the Realtek Audi folders. I chose v4 over any of the other versions because I like how I can tune the equalizer to my liking and different uses. Anyways, the regular audio works and Dolby is turned on but there is no activity appearing on the equalizer and my music does not change once adjusted. Had this problem when doing an optional audio driver update in the past when I was running 8.1. I do not have the option to rollback the driver after upgrading to Windows 10. Does anyone have a solution to this issue or know what the correct Realtek driver is to make Dolby work? This is one of my favorite features of my laptop and I really want it up and running again! Thank you in advance! JakeStiebs My unit: Lenovo Ideapad Z580 running Windows 10 Home with Realtek Audio Driver 6.0.1.7535
one more thing. I was not able to download cleanup tool/online scanner too. but may be it has something to do with my internet bandwidth. and other strange thing i observed is that before restart i was not even able to turn off all security features. but after restart that problem seems to be corrected.

Incorrect resolution after upgrade from Windows 8 to 8.1
I have W510 4389-P2G which had 1920x1200 resolution in Windows 7 and 8. After upgrade to Windows 8.1 the monitor became blurry and resolution is now 1920x1080. In Device manager I can see Thinkpad Display 1920x1080 driver. After uninstalling the driver and installing newest drivers for W510 and restarting (I also tried drivers for W500) the result is always 1920x1080. What can I do to solve the problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.My W510 has always been 1920x1200 until I intalled Windows 8.1
Now, the screen is blurry with less vertical space and resolution 1920x1080
Apparently there are other W510 1920x1200 out there:

After upgrading to windows 8, spectre 14 usb3 slow
are there any usb3 fast drivers for spectre 14 after upgrading to windows 8, the drivers of windows 7 there are not compatible with windows 8
Hello rumbacha. I understand you're trying to locate some drivers for your SPECTRE for Windows 8.
There are quite a few versions of the SPECTRE so I will need your product number to identify exactly which model you have. This document can show you where the product number is located.
Once I have this I will attempt to locate the drivers for you.
Have an excellent day!

after upgrading to Windows 8.1 from 8 nothing works correctly. Firefox 1st received 'unable to load XPcom' After resetting and uninstalling several times Firefox now loads to either a support screen or blank screen. It accepts address input but doesn't execute to target. So far I have been unable to roll back upgrade.
Although IE11 works, it doesn't work correctly.It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:

*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firewalls
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/fix-problems-connecting-websites-after-updating
If you keep having problems then do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 24: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
