Lenovo v580c HDD issue

Hi,
I have a problem with v580c I bought recently. It works very-very slow. Looks like a problem with HDD. All disk operations take about one minute. Lenovo tool reports WHD01V00I-BJ8A2D hdd result.
I live in Russia, our service centers are very slow. Could you please decode the error? Perhaps it will be possible to fix this issue without a service center.
Thanks,
Alexey

Синий экран смерти после установки Intel RST на Lenovo V580c [Win 8.1 x64]

Доброго времени суток, проблема следующая:
Синий экран смерти после установки Intel RST на Lenovo V580c [Win 8.1 x64]
На ноутбуке установлена свежая чистая MSDN Windows 8.1 x64 Professional, лицензионная, активированная ключём. Установлены абсолютно все самые свежие версии драйверов с официальных сайтов, включая Lenovo.com Так же абсолютно все обновления Windows.
При каждой перезагрузке не могу войти в диск С примерно 5минут, ноутбук подвисает, при этом браузер или скайп прекрасно работают, с этого самого диска С, который единственный в системе. Система установлена в UEFI с разметкой GPT на 4 раздела, CSM off. Secure Boot ON. При завершении работы Windows, и после её включения - проблемы нет. Ибо работает гибернация и FastBoot. А вот при перезагрузке проблема всплывает кадый раз.
Было замечено, что драйвер кнтроллера AHCI стоит древнейший, была предпринята попытка обновить его, сначала с сайта Intel, официального, что привело к BSOD, после успешной установки драйвера, и предложенной перезагрузки Windows. Позже была предпринята попытка обновить этот драйвер, на самый свежий, с сайта lenovo.com, предварительно указав верно номер модели ноутбука, и версию ОС. Что так же привело к абсолютно идентичным последствиям.
Вопрос:
Что делать? Как побороть проблему, как установить свежий драйвер, что бы не тормозил HDD, после каждой перезагрузки.
В железе разбираюсь отлично, HDD нульцевый, как и сам ноут, SMART в идеале. Да и на другом ноуте ASUS этот хард прекрасно работает и не глючит, проверял специально.
i5-3230M / 6GB DDR3 1600 / 1TB HDD Samsung SpinPoint F3 (Seagate Momentus 5400rpm) / nvidia GT 740M

Приветствую
"древнейший" драйвер на сайте поддержки ноута не означает, что новейший на сайте производителя драйвера (в данном случае Intel) содержит компоненты для чипсета/контроллера, установленных в ноуте, более актуальные, обновленные, чем "в древнейшем". Кроме того, крайне рекомендуется использовать базовые драйверы (а к таковым относятся и драйвер чипсета, и SATA контроллера) именно с сайта производителя ноута, поскольку они прошли тестирование с конкретной моделью ноута.
Что касается проблемы:
- есть ли в BIOS Setup данной модели ноута выбор режима загрузки, "UEFI First"?
- проверьте режим sata контроллера в BIOS Setup;
- надеюсь, чипсетный драйвер установлен;
- я бы все-таки остановился на драйвере AHCI с сайта Lenovo. Теперь уже придется удалять прежде установленные, слишком велик риск взаимного влияния.
Код ошибки BSOD подтверждает версию об AHCI?
И при чем здесь Intel RST?
Утилитой ThinkVantage System Update пользовались для поиска и установки нужных драйверов с сайта Lenovo? Это не bloatware, это то немногое, что из линейки sw для ThinkPad поддерживает часть моделей Ideapad и является действительно очень полезным.

New Lenovo G570 Teething Issues

Dear Lenovo-connected moderators, outriders and the like (Please note that in error I originally posted this to the other thread):
I just bought in Europe a new Lenovo G570. I have the following issues:
Since I always resize the C: partition I have removed the possibility of using one-key restore. It seems bizarre that Lenovo would force keeping the C: partition at its initial size. Surely it would be possible to write the one-key software to work around repartitioning the HDD. I did the resize of the C: partition immediately after purchase as part of my personal data and program installation and found out later about the requirement not to resize. Moreover, as far as I can recall there was no D: partition already installed, which I might have been able to live with (I prefer multiple data partitions). Any way to fix this problem? For I restored the C: partition to its original size but that didn't help; I couldn't get the recovery DVD's made; the one-key button was non-functional. What do I have to do to get the recovery features back? For I see that for very similar products a fresh install of Win 7 causes all kinds of problems, and in the absence of recovery DVD's that's really the only other option. I should point out that at the moment the computer is working; I'm just trying to do my preventative medicine for the day the computer crashes.
Lenovo's model numbering is very confusing, as is the Lenovo habit of updating system specs on the fly. My model name is 20079; my model number is CB01031166. If I download the current specs for the model from the Lenovo site (just did) they don't agree with what I have. Major differences are that my computer shipped with an Intel i5-2410M processor, a 640 GB HDD and with a separate ATI Graphics Card (Radeon Premium). Thanks, but this leads to issues about driver updates when I search for downloads for my computer on the Lenovo site. In particular, it's not clear to me whether I should be reflashing BIOS with the latest BIOS. On the thread about serious issues with the Idea Pad Z570, I saw recommended the reflashing of the BIOS. You might ask, well why would I go there? Because the Lenovo site does not support searching on models that are not branded Think Pad or Idea Pad. Mine's branded Essentials and it's just not recognized even in the automated search using the Internet Explorer. So searching for Lenovo G570, that's what a Google search turned up and the specs of the Z570 are extremely similar to the G570 I have. So if someone could tell me how to find the driver updates for my model, I'd be very grateful.
I see in the Z570 thread that if the CD is not the first boot priority then the WiFi doesn't work. Does this also apply to my model?
When I boot with an external Sata HDD attached (to see if BIOS will recognize it for boot purposes), the boot procedure freezes until I unplug the Sata HDD. Of course the external HDD is plugged into the USB port. This seems to be a problem with the BIOS, although admittedly I can't recall if the BIOS flash screen shows and it freezes after, or it freezes before it reaches the BIOS flash screen.
I also see that the fan that's always running is actually a serious warranty issue. I hadn't realized that it wasn't some quirk of my software. So here we are with a serious warranty issue. Update: 23/2/12. This does not seem to be a real problem on my machine at the moment. While the fan works more than I would have expected, it will shut down eventually once the computer is not doing anything. Possibly the actual software I'm using on the machine is causing heavy fan use. This is something of a relief.
According to the specs the computer ships with a USB/eSata port. And indeed there is a port in the right place that is different from the other USB ports. The port of course works with USB. However, its shape is not the usual eSatap shape. In particular it doesn't have the cutouts left and right for the usual eSatap jack. Instead it has a cutout at the top. But for the life of me and my dealer, there is nowhere on the Net where we can find an image of the Lenovo USB/eSata port and certainly nowhere where I can buy a jack/adaptor/external SATA disk that fits the Lenovo USB/eSata port.
Here's an image of my USB/eSata port. It's the middle of the three ports. Of course, on the left is something for TV that is irrelevant, and to the right is a normal USB port. How do I find anything to work with it at eSata speeds?
Thanks very much.

Thanks for replying ExJamJus.
I will ask the local reseller, but I suspect they don't know more than anyone else. The problem is that the specs are very fluid on these units--after all, I have a ATI Radeon graphics card whereas the specs typically say that its an integrated (on-the-motherboard) Intel graphics card. Some places, as other users have noted, they do spec it as having an eSata/USB port, but there's just no plug available with that shape with any specification. My technician who sold me the computer thought that the only possibility was that the plug would be introduced later. He'd never seen one and he takes computers apart and fixes them.
As for the drivers, I installed all the drivers. Nothing terrible happened except as follows:
One of the ATI Radeon updates, for Hydravision I believe, comes to an end where kdbsync.exe can't start at boot time because Open.dll is missing. You can follow up on the Internet. The fix is to download Open.dll and put it in the proper folder in Program files. It works now--or at least I don't get an error message at boot time.
This is import for Lenovo: Lenovo energy management upgrade gave me the option to install on top of the old Lenovo energy management but it would require a reboot. So I did it. But what happened was that Lenovo energy management wouldn't start at boot time. I tried repair, no deal. So I had to completely uninstall Lenovo energy management and then do a fresh install. It works now. This is going to irritate people. Bad for business.
It's unclear in some of these cases just what driver is installed on the computer and it's not clear whether the driver installer programs are always coded to check whether the driver being installed is not older than the installed driver. So it makes it a little chancy to download and install a driver that was issued not long before the manufacture date of the product.

Lenovo S400 paint issues

Link to image
Help, well it's too late for me to ask question regarding of this issue. Well i repaint it or just used some sticker to cover? Any solution or suggestion will be appreciated.
Moderator note: large image(s) converted to link(s): About Posting Pictures In The Forums

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 u410 Bios issue

I have a Lenovo u410 i5 Laptop with the following issue
-On Power on: I can hear the fan spinning, along with the hard drive, but screen doesnt post anything (blank)
(It is not a hardware issue, because the screen backlight is on, and it's blank)
-On NOVO power on: Posts: NOVO button menu, followed by the options: Normal startup, BIOS setup, Boot menu, System recovery. Regardless of which option is selected, it posts blank screen as described in first scenario.
I have tried removing hard drive, Flashing BIOS with 4GB flash drive and PHOENIX WINCRISIS, but still nothing.
There is currently no HDD or USB flash stich with an OS that have successfully booted.
PLEASE HELP

The Issue is not the screen or the graphics cards. As I mentioned earlier, upon booting via NOVO button, it posts a menu where I can select one of the following options: Normal start up, Bios set up, Boot select, System recovery.
Regardless of which option i select, it goes to blank (black screen, but the backlight of the screen is on) and nothing posts on screen. I need a detailed step by step description of how to reset BIOS via USB flash drive.

Advice appreciated on a MacBook pro HDD issue

Hello,
I've just suffered my first real system problem and even though I have a few ideas for how to fix it I thought I'd post here and ask for some advice to see what you guys think.
First the problem... Basically my MacBook Pro's HDD has an issue and won't boot. I don't think it's a physical problem with the hardware (although I'm open to advice on this too), I think it just needs a reformat and fresh install of the OS. But obviously I need to get my files off of there first and this is the problem, but read on for more details.
So that's the problem in a nutshell, but here's the full detail.
It's a MacBook Pro, late 2011, 17", 750GB HDD, 8GB RAM, bought in Miami September 2011 while I was on holiday there (I live in the UK), came with Snow Leopard installed, was upgraded to Lion a few days after purchase and then upgraded to Mountain Lion about a month ago.
Last week I was using it when it suddenly restarted itself. I let it restart, then began using it again and about five minutes later it restarted again, but this time it didn't boot properly.
It stayed on the grey screen with the apple logo and spinning clock-type wheel. There was a progress bar at the bottom of the screen, it took ages to move, then finally got to about 33% and the machine restarted itself again.
I tried lots of restarts but every time it did the same thing or it never even showed the progress bar, and just had the spinning clockwheel forever.
So I held down alt and booted from Mountain Lion's recovery partition instead. I launched Disk Utility and tried to verify / repair the drive but it came back with errors and said that it couldn't fix them. Apologies, I realise typing this that anyone reading would probably quite like to read the error long but I can't remember it and I'm not currently at home. If needed I'll run it again and post.
Anyway, the basic point is that Disk Utility is giving a message saying to copy all my files off the drive and reformat because it can't fix it. Incidentally the SMART status of the drive is fine / normal. Not showing any problems there, which is why I'm hopeful it's not a hadware issue.
So I need to copy my files off, and this is the real reason I'm posting this thread, because I don't mind doing a reformat / fresh install of Mountain Lion, but my last backup is a couple of months old (I know, naughty me) so while it wouldn't be the end of the world to copy files back from that, I would lose a bit of data so would like to get them off the MBP's HDD now.
At this point, let me list the kit I have at my disposal:
- At home I have the aforementioned patient (MacBook Pro), a 2TB external HDD with USB2 / FireWire 800 and a NAS box that sits on my network. I also have one of those cables that lets you connect an internal HDD via USB (more on this later, as I suspect it's going to be my best hope).
- At work I have a Windows 7 PC which I do not have any admin rights to, A Windows XP PC that I do have admin rights to and an iMac that is running Leopard (10.5.8) and cannot be upgraded due to various boring work reasons I won't go into here.
So the first thing I tried was booting into the recovery partition, launching Disk Utility and trying to clone the HDD over to the external 2TB drive I have. Cloning the drive like-for-like gives an error message (again apologies, I can't remember it) and trying to copy to an image file on the external drive gets all the way to the end (takes ages because Disk Utility keeps going to sleep) but then when I try to mount the image it gives an error and fails, so I don't trust this method.
So booting to recovery and using Disk Utility seems to be no good.
I thought about trying to take the MBP to work and launching it in target disk mode, then copying files, however I read that you can only have one FireWire device (the target computer) connected when doing this and my iMac at work doesn't have enough internal HDD space to copy all my MBP's files off, so I would need to have an external drive connected to the iMac in addition to the MBP, which sounds like it's not a good idea, or not supported by Apple anyway.
I thought about making a bootable Mountain Lion USB stick as I have a 16GB USB stick I could use for this, however I don't know how to make the bootable USB using my iMac as it's on Leopard (can't be upgraded for work reasons) and doesn't even have the Mac App store on it for me to re-download the Mountain Lion install file.
I think I have the Snow Leopard DVD that came with my MBP so could probably boot off this, but does that allow me into Finder or anything that would let me copy docs from my internal HDD properly over to the external drive? Or is it just going to look similar to the Mountain Lion recovery partition, with Disk Utility and a few other options?
I don't know whether the Mountain Lion recovery partition lets me install Mountain Lion onto my external drive? Or a USB? I was a bit scared to start clicking through options to see whether it would ask me which drive I wanted to install to, just in case it doesn't and begins erasing the main HDD as one of the first things it does.
So this leaves the cable that allows me to connect internal drives via USB. This cable has saved my bacon in the past and I suspect it may be my best option once more. Obviously this means I'm going to have to open up the MBP and remove the HDD but I installed the extra RAM myself and I've installed full-size (3.5") HDDs in the past so I should be able to handle that, unless there's anything radically different with 2.5" drives I'm not aware of.
I've heard people mention DiskWarrior in the past but to be honest if I'm going to spend that sort of money I'd prefer to just put it towards an new, larger HDD, probably a 2TB model.
So there we are, thanks for reading this far. If you have any advice about another (or better) way to get my files off the MBP I'm all ears.
I've never actually done a fresh install of Mac OS before either, only upgrades downloaded from the Mac App Store so any advice around that might be handy too, but mainly it's the file copying I want help with as I'll probably just boot from the recovery partition to reformat and reinstall Mountain Lion.
Thanks

Yes, on your profile.. But, did you phone update just before this happened?

MBP mid 2009 sudden HDD issues / slow and unresponsive

Hello all,
First of all i want to apologize if there was a similar topic, but ive tried looking with no result. I am in a big crisis and i think this forum is my only way of finding a solution.
The problem started yesterday, when all of a sudden my computer became unresponsive (finder and apps), although music from itunes continued playing. I had no choice but to **** it down with the button.
When i turned it back on, i got the blinking folder with the question mark. Tried all the advice with no success. Then i opened the computer, checked the flex cable and the hdd which both seemed fine. Closed it back up, started it up again and the same story. Then i moved the computer after half an hour and the thing booted normally. The only obvious thing was that programs tended to freeze for a minute or two and i get the umbrella and then it works.
Since im a photographer i have lots of work on it and immediately bought an external hdd for backup. Time machine wasnt successful since it worked so slowly and it worked on intervals. 2 mins of copying, 5 mins of nothing and really slow ( the hdd graph in activity monitor showed continious spikes with a flat line inbetween. I gave up on that and now im copying the important stuff manually which seems to be working fine.
However the computer still has a big issue - i am hoping its the flex cable, since it suddey started working. In case of hdd failure i dont think i would be able to get back in and use it? The hdd is a year old, its the seagate hybrid - momentus 750xt and the os is mountain lion.
Does anyone have a clue or a tip what to do? I have to order the flex cable via ebay since there are no authorised deLers for apple that have spare parts available here in Lisbon, Portugal. Im afraid making a clean install wont help , although on a windows computer id do that the first thing..
Thanks a lot for any help, im desperate and i have a few weddings to edit this month, and since i study abroud this is the only xomputer i can use!
Regards, Jaka

It does seem to be the internal cable or connection is faulty, but only on an intermittent basis.
My suggestion is to backup your data on an external HDD using Disk Utility>Restore or Carbon Copy Cloner. This will create a drive that will enable you to boot your MBP and use it externally until you get your cable replaced.
Ciao.

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.

Read only HDD issue

I have read only issue when I connect my HDD to my MBA, I don't want to format my HDD, is there any other way to resolve this?

you can verify your selectionListener event by creating your own custom selection listener
public void mySelectionListener(SelectionEvent selectionEvent) {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String me = "#{bindings.myViewObject1.collectionModel.makeCurrent}"
MethodExpression myMethodExpr = fc.getApplication().getExpressionFactory().createMethodExpression(fc.getELContext(),me, null, new Class[] {SelectionEvent.class});
myMethodExpr.invoke(fc.getElContext(), new Object[] {selectionEvent});
RowKeySet rwKeySet = selectionEvent.getAddedSet();
and in your jspx <af:table selectionListener="#{package1.view.backing_myBackingBean.mySelectionListener}"/>
by that way you can atlest verify whats wrong... ,hope this helps,

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.

Leopard/external HDD issue.

Being that my paltry 80GB hard drive in my Powerbook cannot hold even my music collection, I run my iTunes library from my external HDD. Since externals are notoriously unreliable, I have it stop spinning after a time without usage.
However, since getting Leopard, this is becoming horribly irritating. Even with no use at all—maybe I won't even be at the computer—my external will start spinning. Then, soon, it will shut off again. After a while, it'll start spinning, and so forth.
This is annoying in its own right. Then, just as annoying, is that it will start up even with such little actions as waking my display from sleep. The hard drive shouldn't be used in that instance, so why does it start up?
Is this just an irrevocable issue with Leopard, or is there something I can do?

I'm not sure where you get your information that external disks are unreliable. IMO they are no more or less reliable than internal disks.
As far as spinning up, that's happened to me in every system I've used. Usually it will spin up just when I'm about to enter a name in the "Save As" field
Also, the choices to "put the disks to sleep" in System Preferences >> Energy Saver do not work on external drives. Any drive will spin down after 10-20 minutes of inactivity and spin up again when called upon.
So the short answer is there's nothing you can do about it, except to unmount the external.

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
