Lenovo Y50-70 screen problem

Hello. Recently, i have bought the Lenovo Y50-70 laptop and it seems that there is some screen problem. I have a feeling that it does flicker sometimes (1-2 per hour, sometimes more). Firstly, I thought that the backlight changes for a second, but then, after more observation, it might be it turning off and on immediately, or the colours fade and return to normal. I can't say for sure, what it is, because it happens very quickly, but the eye catches it anyway and it is kind of annyoing. Moreover, once the screen went completely crazy, it started to turn off and on every 2-3 seconds, big portions of view weren't even displayed, and what wasn't displayed changed every time it turned off and on. There were also green and red dots moving all over, mouse was moving in slowmotion (like I were playing a game in 15 fps). Only the restart helped and it stopped. So the question is, what is wrong and what am I supposed to do? Sorry, if the english is bad, but it isn't my native language.

I live in South Africa. Bought the notebook on 14 July 2015, within 2 weeks I started experiencing the screen flickering and grey lines. I was told by Lenovo to roll back drivers, then update drivers etc. - nothing worked. I returned the laptop to the supplier who in turn sent it to Lenovo. Lenovo has offered to replace the unit. I am hesitant to accept another unit and am thinking of rather getting a refund so that I can buy an Acer Aspire V Nitro (same specs). My previous laptop was an Acer and did not give me a day's trouble. Don't bother trying to update drivers or open the screen to plug it into the motherboard etc. I think the issue is a power supply one and that Lenovo should do a recall of this product. I am just thankful that South Africa has consumer law which forces a supplier to replace, repair or refund a defective product within 6 months from purchase if the consumer wants - so they can't simply repair, if I want a refund, they must give me one. Good luck! PS: This was my first and last Lenovo product!

Lenovo Y50-70 Internet Problems

Hello, regretfully I have bought a Lenovo Y50-70 today, upon setting it up the I was having major problems with the internet, it was either VERY slow or didn't load anything up at all and disconnects frequently unless I was right next to my router or directly plugged into it, when i'm plugged in there's no problems at all.
I decided to remove Windows 8.1 and install Windows 7 and i'm still facing the same problems. I've spent the whole day searching the internet for a fix but I haven't found a single thing that's worked. I've tried installing every driver I could possibly find on the website and nothings helped at all.
Here is a picture of my device manager:

I've got to be within the same wall to be connected? That's absolutely terrible, no other laptops have to do that. The signal bar mostly stays the same, sometimes it goes down one bar and disconnects every now and then.
I don't know if that other person actually meant a physical wall. If so, they do not understand wireless N and ac modes.
I see from your photo right off the bat u have some conflicts shown with the yellow ! marks. I would say first resolve that conflict.
You have a different model wifi than I do but I had to go into device manager, click on my device and I think it was under "advanced" there was an option that stated "allow system to turn off wifi". God knows why that would even be there but if you see that, try UNchecking it and see if the drop offs go away. But again, any conflicts in device manager can also affect other devices so please correct whatever those conflicts are.
Only other advice I can suggest is make sure you have an up to date driver by comparing the driver number and date in device manager for that component with the Lenovo driver download area and make sure your driver is up to date. But the wifi turning itself off problem is typically caused by that setting to allow the system to turn off the wifi.
You may find going through other driver settings that you may be on 2.4GHZ instead of the 5 GHz and maybe you need to change the channel on your router to one that is not very busy in your area. Some routers are set to auto and this can cause some devices to lose signal if the router hops channels or if it is on a channel that your neighbors also use.
I wish you the best of luck and others also have complained of "SLOW" wifi. If your card is 80211.ac capable, your router also has to be ac caable or you will only get the speed of the router.
EDITED: I re-read your original post and see that your wifi driver is stating wireless n when I believe it should be wireless ac. Maybe this is from the fact you went to Windows 7. So, perhaps go back to factory settings, try unticking the "allow to turn off" portion, set it to 5GHz instead of 2.4 GHz (gives further distance use). and if you STILL have problems, go exchange the system. These Y50 computers have bugs in my opinion. Good Luck!

Lenovo G400 blinking screen problem

Hello Lenovo community,
I just purchased a brand new G400 a couple of months ago, 64bit running on windows 8. i have dutifully updated it to every new windows 8 version (i am unsure how many they actually are), i have encountered and fixed thru lenovo updates some graphics issues with the AMD and all.
I have installed a couple games a few days after i bought the laptop (NBA 2k13, L4D 1 and 2, COD MW2) and have not had problems with it until recently when i decided to patch a FIBA World Cup outlay on my 2K13. i got the files from here http://www.nba2k.org/2013/09/FIBA-2K13-v1.3-Mod-Update.html
since then, ive had this blinking problem wherein whenever i pressed a key and then press the "s" key right after in quick succession, my screen would blink. it would happen while i play and crash the game. it would also happen while i type stuff both online and offline. its usually the keys in the vicinity of the "s" and then the "s" then bam, it would blink.
would you guys know what the problem could be? and any tips on how to remedy this? thank you!
Pilipinas all day

hi Tanimal15,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Just to verify, when you boot in Safe Mode, are you able to recreate the blinking screen problem?
It may look like a coincidence but I don't think that the FIBA World Cup outlay caused the sudden blinking screen. Booting in Safe Mode will also isolate any apps/services that are running in the background that's possibly causing the issue.
If the unit works fine in Safe Mode, perform a clean boot and observe the machine in normal mode.
Let me know how it goes.
Regards

Lenovo T410s LCD screen problem

I've got a problem with my LCD screen on Lenovo T410s. Everyting worked good so far. Today I wanted to check another LCD for that model which I've got. So I dicsonected the original LCD, and conected the second one to check. After I saw that the second one worked good, I disconected it. Then I conected again the original one and started the laptop. Unfortunately when it started, the screen didn't shine good - it's very dark. I disconected the one and tried back the second LCD, but again the second one shined very bad. Can anybody tell me what could happened? It looks like the inverter is demaged, but I don't even know where is the one inside that model. Please give me some advices
Solved!
Go to Solution.

These fuses are extremely tiny and not meant to be user-replaceable.
You'd have to pull the board out and start measuring them one by one until you find an "open" one.
No clue where exactly these are on a T410 board.
Good luck.
Cheers,

Lenovo Y50 still have the hinge breaking problem?

Do anyone know if the Lenovo Y50 is still having the screen display hinge breaking or exploding from the base problem?

My Laptop has just started falling apart about a month after my warranty ended (of course) here is my list of problems that have been happening since my warrenty ended. 1. The part that the screw actually screws into the part that holds the hinge to the laptop has broken off so my screen is being held on by 1 screw very scary as it could fall of any minute. 2. The plastic piece that covers the hinge will pop off everytime I open my laptop and makes a horrible cracking sound when I have to keep opening my laptop to snap back the plastic piece so that I can use my laptop. I am now using scotch tape to fix this for now very embarrasing when gaming with my friends. 3. I have been slowly losing screws on the bottom of my laptop to hold the whole thing togeather I am now down to 8 out of the 12 that are supposed to be there. A screw just recently fell off and it happend to be the last screw that was holding my screen to the laptop so I had to swap some screws around so that my screen was being held on by something. I was looking for a quality gaming laptop I could take to college and I will be heading off to college in a month! I would not sugguest this laptop and will probably never purchase a lenovo product again as this seems to be a somewhat common problem.

Problema disco duro lenovo y50

Hace 2 meses compre un lenovo y50 y hoy al encenderlo arranco muy lento
le pase el crystal disk y me da un problema de sectores reasignados

Hola josemanueldsds que tal,
Al ver el indicativo no detectado en BIOS puede ser un problema que indique que el problema sea directamente del disco o de la placa, lo recomendable es contactar al centro de llamadas Lenovo para que el problema sea revisado y diagnosticado en el centro de servicios de tu país.
Solo necesitas el recibo de compra y verificar que si el modelo que comentas cuenta con garantía internacional dentro de tu país, https://support.lenovo.com/es/es/iwslookupidea si no cuenta con garantía internacional una manera es hacer la efectiva en el país de procedencia, lo siento quizás no es las mejores de las respuestas pero solo trato de dar opciones.
Lamentablemente no veo otra solución, puedes esperar mas respuestas que den mas luces sobre este problema.
Un saludo.

Lenovo Y50 screen flickering?

I just received my Y50 (not ultra HD)last week on Friday and it has been running great with one small exception... I have been playing Far Cry 3 and sometimes the screen flickers? It happens very rarely but I'm not sure if this is something I should be worrying about & if it could get worse in the future. The game is on Ultra settings and runs perfect aside from these odd screen flickers.

Hi Katiealicef,
Welcome to the Forums
As per the query we understood that you facing issue with display flickering in your Lenovo Y50 laptop.
As you have mentioned the display flickers while playing games, does it happens even while working on other applications?
If yes try to updaqte the graphic driver and check for the issue, also try to move the LCD back n for the nad check for the issue, try to connect the external monitor and check for the issue.
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 7(32 bit).
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 7(64 bit).
Click here for the graphic driver for windows 8.1.
Hope this helps. Do post back if the issue persists!
Best regards,
Ashwin. S

Multiple screens with Lenovo Y50

Hi, My Lenovo Y50 has only 1 HDMI port for display. I would like to connect more than one monitor, so Windows will see two monitors, such that I will be able to use extend mode. This means I don't want a simple hub that splits the display, but something smarter. Is there any solution our there for this?

You can get a USB to HDMI adapter (here's one I found) if you don't mind using up one of the USB ports on your laptop. Should allow you to do multiple displays since you'll have two cables/ports .

Lenovo Y50-70 wont turn on at all

hay , i just bought lenovo y50 last week and very satisfied with the performance but this morning when i try to turn on my laptop from hibernate, the layer sudenly goes white so i decide to hard hard shutdown it but when i try to turnit on again it didnt show any sign of life ( layer and fan didnt turn on etc... ) but the battery charge indicate is on ... i read in the internet that we must take out our battery and push the power button to 5-10 second. but since the lenovo y50 has built in battery and im afraid to take the backcase open because of the warranty so i've tough . anyone can help me?

Hello there,
I just got the same problem this morning with my Y50-70. It suddenly turned off while I was working with Win7, just a black screen, power off. So I tried to power it on again and it failed, simply no reaction at all. The only thing working is the battery LED when the AC connector is plugged in. My Y50-70 is only 5 weeks old and worked without any problems until today ;-(
I called the support at Lenovo and they told me to "hard reset" by pulling the power cable and pressing the power button for 20 seconds....no success at all. Finally after several tries I decided to send my Y50-70 back to Lenovo. It seems to be a hardware problem. Lenovo offer 2 years of warranty for the Y50-70, because of that I decided not to open it. Let´s see how long ist takes until I have my - hopefully working- Y50-70 back.
Perhaps you have more luck than I.
Greetings from Germany!
