How did you come by this if I may ask ?
But your best bet is to send it into Lenovo and they'll most likely "CID" - Customer Induced damage - unless otherwise. But they're really good about it and will negotiate proper prices with you!

Lenovo S400 motherboard info

Hi all,
I can't fine the model of my motherboard: can someone tells me which is? I own a lenovo S400 with intel i5 3317u. When I run CPU-ID, under name is written "company name" and no model is shown.
Thanks in advance!

hi Fantasys21,
You can check this Maintenance Manual for your system and check the Hardware list.
You should be able to find the following list
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
Note that the part you need to get has an FRU tag on it. as per other threads here same model without the FRU tag will not work.

Lenovo S400 screen brightness darker on Win 7?

So I recently bought a Lenovo S400 that came with Windows 8 for someone. However, he didn't like Windows 8 so I installed Windows 7 on it. After installing all the driver, the screen for some reason got darker. It seems like the lowerst the screen brightness can go and the hightest the screen brightness can go got lowered. I thought it may have been a driver issues so I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the driver without any luck. So I just formmated the computer again but still no luck.
Does anybody have any solutions for this?

***UPDATE***
Ok so the problem is confirmed! As soon as I restored Win 8, the screen brightness was set at 65%, I was quickly able to turn it up to 100% and the screen is as bright as ever. So it is now definitely not a hardware issue but an issue with Win 7 drivers Lenovo provides.
Now, I will try getting all the drivers off the hidden partition and try restoring my Win 7 back and trying that Win 8 driver. If that works, I will upload the Win 8 driver for everyone and post a link.
But, I definitely discovered the cause. It's drivers!
PS
In fact, I will post the driver if I find it now, so you guys can try it out before I do the Win 7 restore again.
Hmm, the only problem now is I can't seem to see the drive with the drivers on it. I know I had it before, but I can't see it now, I recreated all the partitions Lenovo came with, keeping exact sizes, but I can't seem to assign a letter to any of them through standard disk management app.
Ok tried viewing the hidden partitions.... I just remembered that I was stupid and didn't backup the D drive, which is where the regular OneKey Backups go and the drivers were in that folder as well.....
So if anyone has Win 8, please upload it somewhere, preferably dropbox or mediafire, so I can test it.
Because it'll be a long time before we get it from Lenovo and I really hate Win 8!

Painting issue with swing titlebar

Hi,
I had already posted this but no body replied so I am posting it again hoping somebody might reply to this now.
In my swing application I wanted a custom titlebar, so I created my own RootPaneUI by taking most of the code from MetalRootPaneUI to get what I wanted.
In order to make my titlebar visible I had to call:
frame.setUndecorated(true);
frame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.FRAME);
The major issue I am facing now which sounds very weird to me is with the painting of the window. When I start the application sometimes (not always), I see the frame being stuck to the top left corner of the monitor, when I move the mouse over the toolbar/menubar, the frame starts painting the icons of underlying IDE like eclipse or IntelliJ over my application. It seems like a painting issue which is really a very strange behaviour.
This issue does not happen with windowslookandfeel and also works fine for MetalLookAndFeel when the JFrame is decorated to show window decorations(windows titlebar) not the look and feel one(custom titlebar).
I wanted to know if its me who is doing something wrong or is it a swing bug. Is there a way to fix this issue. I searched a number of forums but couldn't find an answer to it.
Thanks in advance.

Hello @Andre_Uhres:
In my application, I am using swing application framework (JSR 296) and I have a splash screen(JFrame) which loads some configuration data and then shows a modal login dialog on top of it. On successful login the login dialog and splash is disposed and the main application frame shows up.
The job of showing splash screen and logging in the application was being done in the main/initial thread. I apolgoize for not being able to provide a sample runnable code because the issue is seen only with my application and not with any other demo programs and it was not quite possible for me to put that huge code here.
public static void main(String args[])
SplashFrame.start();
//Launch the main application
Application.launch(ApplicationMain.class); // swing application framework would launch the frame in the invokeLater method.
class SplashFrame
   public void start()
        // create a splash and show it
       // load the configurations
       // show login dialog
       // on successful login dispose splash and login
}I eventually moved this code into SwingUtilities.invokeLater() but even this didn't help me. I still see the same issue.
public static void main(String args[])
// or use invokeAndWait
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
SplashFrame.start();
//Launch the main application
Application.launch(ApplicationMain.class); // swing application framework would launch the frame in the invokeLater method.
}I also tried doing this:
RepaintManager.setCurrentManager(new RepaintManager()); as I read in some forums that sometimes RepaintManager might need to be overwritten to resolve some painting issues.
FYI: I am using JDK 1.6.0_17
In spite all these, I still see the same issue. Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

TouchPad Vertical-Scroll Painting Issues

I have yet to reproduce the problem myself but I am getting
reports of a painting issue on some laptops. Apparently, using the
touch pad vertical scroll option on some (not mine unfortunately)
laptops causes the contents of the flash player to paint outside of
the player boundaries. The code is written in AS3 and is targeted
for the Flash 9 player.
The code implements a very basic FLVPlayback (skin on top)
that sits behind a button and a static image in layers on the stage
until the button is clicked. When clicked, the static image and
button have their visible property set to false and the video is
played. The painting problem happens when the static image is
displayed and when the video is playing.
Since I’m having no luck finding complaints of this
problem after much searching, I can only assume that I have done
something wrong in my implementation and being new to Flash it is
the most likely scenario. Any suggestions on what I could be doing
wrong?

I got better response on my w520 by installing "Two finger Scroll" from here:
https://code.google.com/p/two-finger-scroll/
A LifeHacker post that turned up about the software:
http://lifehacker.com/5493849/get-mac+like-scrolling-and-gestures-on-a-windows-laptop
...and it's helpful on my machine. For example, I often increase the size of font display in web text-heavy articles with CTRL-(two fingers up). I have no idea of its effect on a w530 but pull a Restore Point first and try it. Bail if bogus on that model.
Pretty lame help from the techs.
BTW, you can search here with that sw name because I heard about it in this forum and if there are negatives they woud have been discussed back in late 2011, early 2012 when I was looking into this. Good luck.

Lenovo S400 error in installing Rapid start technology

I recently installed windows 8 on my laptop all drivers were installed perfectly except Intel Rapid Start Technology, on installing it is showing that your system doesn't meet the minimum requirement. Also the action center is showing install driver for power management and card reader which I have already installed but still it is continuously showing this message.

hi madhurgandhi,
Welcome to the Forums.
Installing the Intel Rapid Start Technology requires an Intel Rapid Start feature in the BIOS. Upon looking, this is not included in the S400's BIOS so this software will not work.
As for the power management and card reader notifications, are these the drivers that you installed?
Realtek Card Reader Driver
Version: 6.2.9200.39044
Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Lenovo Energy Management
Version: 8.0.2.3
Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
AFAIK, If the card reader and the energy management softwares are both instaled and working without any errors, you should be fine.

Lenovo S400 Windows XP Drivers needed

Hello can I use the Windows 7 drivers to install Windows XP on Lenovo Ideapad S400?
Or can I Download anywhere the XP Drivers?

hi Napkid,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Windows XP drivers are not listed under support site for this model.
If you really want to push for Windows XP you will need to get those manually from Manufacturers.
You can check device's Hardware ID under Device Manager to identify the brand and model.
Then look it up online for driver download

Help! Brand New Lenovo A10-70 - Issue Downloading Apps

Hi Lenovo Community,
I just purchased a brand new A10-70 tablet and while I love the price and features, there appears to be on major issue. Whenever I try to download game apps from Google Playstore, the pad errors out and tells me "Application Could Not Load to SD Card", heck I don't even have an SD card installed.
This is actually the second tablet doing this to me. I took the first one back and exchanged it thinking that there was a software glitch but it now appears it is a platform issue.
Games such as Minecraft PE simply will not load while others appear to load fine but then when you go to open the app and use it, you get a notice that the app is not installed.
I have other tablets from Samsung, HP and even Nabi which have never had issues downloading game application.
What's up with Lenovo?
I am willing to try to get corrected but cannot wait long, will take back and get another Samsung.
Thanks,
Biggzy

UML295 and Lenovo X1 connectivity issues

I have a UML295 and I'm attempting to use it with Lenovo's X1 Carbon (Model 20A) and I'm having some serious issues. Well, my end user is. After a restart, card is inserted and works perfectly. I don't need to open up the MBB software, anything. If I disconnect or just remove the device and wait a few minutes to plug it back in, it doesn't' work. Indicator light turns green, flickers, etc. No internet. I open up the MBB software and shows I'm connected but doesn't go anywhere, or the software doesn't recognize that the card has been inserted. It displays this behavior on multiple X1 Carbon machines that I have here. I've tested it on an older T530 Thinkpad and it works as intended. No need to install the MBB software neither. As soon as the indicator light turns green, I'm good to go on internet access.
Is there a firmware update or a known issue between these cards and the X1 Carbon? It's frustrating to our reporters that they can't use their new laptops out in the field.
Thank you

USB modem devices need both drivers and connection software to facilitate a connection to the VZW network. I suggest going out and downloading the latest of both from VZW and retesting on your machine.
UML295 download:

Otherwise the problem that you mentioned here is specifically resolved by use of a Jetpack. No drivers, no software. All users need is normal WiFi and they will be able to access the internet just like at any other hotspot. This was a big advantage for us in addition to the reduced hardware costs of broken USB ports on laptops and USB modems.

Lenovo Hard Disk Issue - Felt bad about the service

This email is regards to the complaint on Lenovo All in desktop i purchased which is still there in warranty.
I purchased All in one desktop on 25/02/2014 in one of the outlet of Reliance Digital, Bangalore,India.
Below is the detail of the product -
SN : CSxxxxxxxx
Product Family : C240
Machine type : 10113.
I was getting "Error 1962 : Operating system not found" . and raised a request to rectify the problem. The service engineer came with new hard drive for replacing it. I asked for my data and they told it's customer responsibility to make the data back up. He himself gave the hard disk which was there with hard disk and asked me to back up with some third party vendor.
I visited Cadons, Bangalore for data back up and after checking Cadons engineer told hard drive is completely dead better contactLenovo again so that they will repair it and give one it is repaired i he told he will be able to make data back up.
I again called customer care executive and told that third party vendor was not able to make the data back because of hard drive failure but they are refusing to repair hard drive and each time i am receiving a call from service engineer and are just trying to close the ticket at the earliest by replacing the hard drive. No one is bothering about repairing the hard drive and helping me to take my data back up.
For your reference :Ticket number : TVSE/IDEA/7006373733/
I also sent email to [email protected] from whom i am receiving the emails stating that they will resolve the issue but no action was taken from last 20 days.
I just wanted to check whether Lenovo execut\ives are really meant to serve customer issues? If somebody is there please let me know. Otherwise i will just throw this harddisk and say good bye to Lenovo and it's products in future.

Drill down value not matching with Displayed Report Painter Issue-GR55

Hi,
Need your help for an issue in drill down value of report painter from actual cost coloumn.
I have created a new report group based on OSS Note-157720 in GR55 Traction. This new report group will provide data of Planed / Actual cost, Planned / Actual Quantity of the project in range of fiscal year/periods. The issue in this report is displayed data of actual cost is not matching with drill down data. The actual cost coloumn is formula coloumn which framed by subtracting All periods cost coloumn, Before Periods Cost Coloumn and After periods cost coloumn.
Could you suggest on this issue.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Rakesh

The report you are running first might have been created with some hidden columns that contain more than one variables relating to period and fiscal year. These may not be matching those that are required to run the drilldown. Look into the definition of the drilldown report. If you would want to match the first report, It may be better to identify which report runs on drilldown and the run that report with the required parameters.

Photoshop CS4 3d painting issues.

Hello!
I am using Photoshop CS4 Extended. I have imported a 3D image and am trying to paint onto it. I have watched a ton of videos and read a bunch of forums. Once I put even a dot of paint on my object, the whole 3D image is covered in paint. Does anyone have any ideas what the issue is?
Thanks!

Could You post the file (provided it’s not too big) or at least a screenshot of the 3D (Materials)-Panel with some of the problematic Material selected?

Lenovo G560 few issues

Hello to all Archers! I have few issues with my lenovo g560.
First of all, when browsing for example, the X suddenly freezes and dunno why... just freezes... The only thing that i can do is the force reboot...
2. i have a mute led button which shine all the time, but the sound isn't muted. How can i fix this?
3. My integrated mic is not found by alsa. Fix for this?
Thanx!
PS. On my desktop PC all works just fine, and not for now, but since 4 years. Arch is for me the most finest linux distro. May be i'm not enough experianced with the laptop issues...

Hello
I got same notebook: with i3, gf310M. So:
1) Same problem here. I've discovered that when you disable desktop compozition X is not freezeing. In my system X freezes mostly when I'm resizing windows
2) Where's mute button?
3) add to /etc/modprobe.conf:
options snd-hda-intel model=asus
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=0xffff,0xfff2
firs line set's alsa to work with conexant codec and second disables nvidia hdmi sound. after that open gstreamer-properties(part of gnome-media) and select proper mic
