SL410 frozen at Thinkpad splash screen
Hello,
I have an SL410 that will not get past the Thinkpad splash screen. I've already tried checking the pins on the USB ports.
I've removed the keyboard, hard drive, battery, and wireless card but it remains frozen. I've drained the power by holding the power button down for several seconds. I even swapped the processor and checked the memory modules and slots.
Any suggestions to get past the splash screen? Thank you very much!
Yep, Verizon replacing it.

W540 stuck on ThinkPad splash screen
I've got W540 (32GB RAM, 500GB HDD) running Windows 7.1 64bit that is constantly getting stalled at the ThinkPad splash screen during powerup.
It will often stall at the "ThinkPad" splash screen.
Other times it will stall at the "ThinkPad" splash screen with the "To interrupt normal startup, pess Enter" message displayed.
I've seen other entries that reference this issue with:
- using a SSD, I'm a standard HDD.
- a broken USB port. Mine all look OK (is there a way to actually test them?)
I've updated to the latest Bios and reset the Bios defaults with no change.
I've run the hardware diagnostic tests and found no errors.
When I say "stall" on the splash screens I sometimes find if I leave it alone long enough (maybe 5+ minutes) it will continue to the normal Windows boot up.
This is the 2nd W540 out of a pool of laptops to display symptoms similar to this.
Anyone got information on what may cause a stall at the ThinkPad splash screen?
Thanks.Not knowing your exact set up, but KNOWING that this is a blind black box with no activity light like a normal workstation, you need to do workarounds.
Normally, on my older workstation, I could see the HD light blink and the rate would give me an inkling of the process.
The WORKAROUND: we now need to calibrate your computer clock to your watch, or use a cell phone time keeper which would already be synced if the W540 is connected to the WiFi (no switch so the W540 has to be connected, unless there is no access point). As an aside, I have found that when there are large MS updates, like last Tuesday, or other such WiFi connected updated, the compute also hangs with the user having NO KNOWLEDGE that the WiFi is talking / or calling home to some cloud device.
Back to the workaround: Boot the system, and when there appears to be a crash or hang in the sequence, note the time of the 'event' and also note the time when it appears to restart. Once properly booted, and I cannot tell you how often this has happened to my W540, check the even times in the [Event Viewer]. Too long to explain, Google the term "Win 7 Event Viewer", or check this:
MS Help - Event Viewer
Then find out where the computer chokes and restarts by checking the time in the events and the cause. These are i/o routines which the Lenovo Gods have decide to shield us from such WORKSTATION task.
FWIW, often I get <Program Not Responding>, when in fact it is performing a numbers intensive task.... yet I cannot tell what is happening as there is no i/o light. Usually unlocks when the task is finished, which may be what is happening on your system. You need to find out the task that is causing the wait.
Odd, the Lenovo Gaming machines Y50 have these lights, albeit atrophied: see lower 4 indicator lights.... -
Is there a way to disable the ThinkPad splash screen during boot up? I checked out the BIOS settings on my T400 but to no avail.
ThanksI disabled a few things under the BIOS that I wasn't using and a few things within Windows mentioned here..
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/What-is-the-Rapid-Boot-extreme-feature-on-T...
So far, it went from a 28 second bootup to about 20 seconds (I'm also using an SSD). The shutdown time is about 5.8 seconds. At this point, I'm pretty content with the progress now.
Thank you all for the comments. -
I built my barebones pc a week ago, using amd athlon 64 3500+, on an MSI K9MM_V motherboard. Everything perfect until about an hour ago, when it suddenly shut down, and when I tried to reboot it freezes on the MSI splash screen (which says hit "del" for setup, hit "f1" for post.) Neither works, I cannot do anything whatsoever. Cannot even get into the bios. There is power to the mobo, lights and fans are all working, hard drives spinning, i tried resetting the bios by taking the battery out for about a half hour, i pressed on all connectors to make sure properly seated, etc, everything looks fine. This sounds to me like a motherboard problem, please someone let me know what you think. Remember, the thing is, there is NO POST, NO NOTHING, JUST THE MSI SPLASH SCREEN, WHICH DISPLAYS INDEFINITELY. ctrl+alt+del does nothing. I tried another keyboard, just for the hell of it. I don't know what to do. I bought the barebones kit from TigerDirect.com, and I know that they will probably give me an rma but how can I be sure it is the motherboard that is bad, not the CPU? It was running so nicely, Vista Home Premium. Thanks for help anyone!!!
Thanks for all the replies. I tried the reset button as suggested by fenelonm, it did not help. Then I followed the specific directions to reset cmos as posted by Henry. For Grayone, here is the entire system:
AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Socket AM2 CPU
Maxtor 200 GB EIDE hd
Sabrent Ultra ATA 100/133 IDE RAID PCI Control card (Currently supporting 3 additional ide hard drives that I use for storage only.)
Thermaltake A4022 TR2-R1 CPU Fan socket am2
crucial 1044MB PC 4200 DDR2 533Mhz ram
ThermalTake silent cat case fan
MSI K9MM-V Socket AM2 motherboard
Power Up Mid T ATX Case w 450WPSU
BFG Geforce 6200 256 ram AGP video card
thats about it. I could be so so wrong here but given that I get nothing but the MSI logo on the screen and can go no further, doesn't that have to be either the CPU or the systemboard?? What else could it possibly be? If the CPU were dead, would I still get the MSI logo splash screen? This is my dilemma, when I call Tiger Direct I want to be pretty sure which component is bad. Keeping in mind all the while, the system performed perfectly for a week. The last thing I did on it was print out a PDF file, went fine. then shut down, then splash screen, end of the fun...... -
Thinkpad X1 Carbon stuck on splash screen
I bought a new X1 Carbon (20A7) a week ago and from time to time the laptop gets stuck on the ThinkPad splash screen when booting. I have to hold the power button to turn it off and then it boots fine. My brother has this problem with T540p, although this happens to him a LOT more often (also, if he waits patiently for 10-20 minutes, the system boots eventually, I havent tried that on my X1). It doesn't matter if the AC is connected, whether there is something connected to USB ports, whether it was a restart or just normal boot, there is no pattern that I can see, this seems random. We tried updating the BIOS to the newest version, our USB ports are not bent or anything, the SSD with the OS is set as the first boot device. This still happens. I see there are more people with thinkpads who have the similar problem, but their solutions do not apply (if there were any).
Solved!
Go to Solution.OK, so I contacted support, Lenovo replaced my SSD drive (wrranty applies) and the problem is gone. The service guy said that SSD Firmware update using Lenovo application may have worked, but I had Ubuntu installed, so I was unable to run it.

T500 freezes at opening Thinkpad spash screen
I have a T500 [2081-CT0] running Windows 7. Today on boot up the unit froze at the Thinkpad splash screen at the beginning of the bootup routine. I can hear the fan and feel the HDD spinning.
I have, to begin with rebooted several times, removed the battery, reseated the HDD...
A previous issue that has been intermittant is the USP not recognising an external HDD. It would always recognise on reboot but not initially as on other home and office computers. This issue began in the past two weeks.
My thought is HDD controller but I am not familiar with the T500 architecture to know its place in the world.
I have done initial searches here [and will do more] but right now i have a dead T500
Solved!
Go to Solution.**bleep**, good call.
I peeked at the three USB ports and noted that one [closest to the RJ45] not only did not have the block on it but the pins were bent. I used a small screwdriver to pull all the pins up, off ground [#4 was on the ground] and the machine booted.
I assume at some point a USB device "borrowed" the little block in the connection, but we kept plugging in the extrenal drive, sometimes seating well, other times not.
We are now up and flying.
Thanks. -
Audition 2.0 Startup Issues/Frozen at Splash Screen
Had a production worker come to me today noting that 2.0 was not stating up.
It is freezing on the splash screen.
Process shows Adobe at 50% and Sys Idle at 50%.
I can start and run any other program with no issues.
I uninstalled and reinstalled only to return to the same issue.
I also installed Audtion 1.5 and it runs fine.
Has anyone experianced anything similar or does anyone perhaps have an idea where I might start to look in order to resolve this?
It's run problem free for I don't know how long, one year plus.
I did have a NexGen issue today with the sound card, but donot see that as being linked in anyway.
Though I suppose it is curious that both picked today to fail.
Same sound card as before, nothing physical was swapped out, just reinstalled the driver.Maybe try deleting the presets/preferences (after backing them up)

Issue: One day I unplug the power, the screen freezes and I get frozen music sound. I shut down, start up, I get 3 beeps (1 short 2 long), which indicates a Video failure according to the Thinkpad Laptop beep code list.
How I solve the issue day-to-day: I turn the heat up - I disconnect the battery and hard drive and plug in the power then turn it on. I will wait until the underneath is searing hot with a blanket blocking the fan's flow of air, I mean way hot because any
cooler and it won't start. Plug stuff back in, Hard drive first, Battery second, turn off with power button hold, unplug power, replug power.
I turn it on, no beeps, it goes past the first Lenovo screen, then gives me a prompt because it "didn't shut down properly" and continue regular startup. What happens next is the Windows logo appears,
and just as the animated windows logo starts to move (you see 2 small colored dots on the screen), it freezes. I see this every time, I know naturally that it means that the laptop is still too hot to go past that point, so I shut it down and try again. After
about 5 - 10 tries it will go past the splash screen and into the login area, then it's all fine.
Sometimes when I unplug the power from the back by accident it will freeze. By accident I mean that the connector wiggles it's self out easily. This unplug freezing thing started happening about 1 week before the 3 beep black screen problem started rolling,
so I'm putting 2 together.

What could this be. The small round BIOS battery? The video card like everyone presumes? (I.E. the entire motherboard replacement), Software? The wiggly power input area? (Not enough power getting in?), Firmware of some sort? The BIOS software being wrong?

I'd beg to differ on both accounts.
*61 series nVidia-based ThinkPads from late January through July of 2008 are a 50/50 shot, since the old chips were mixed with the new ones. Any machine built in August and later can be deemed "safe".
As for the forums (I don't do feebay) there are people who sell genuine, properly-tested planars. However, these do not come at bargain basement prices, and with a good reason if I may add.
Good luck.

Lightroom won't boot -I only get the splash screen for a second.
I do have the photographers version of the Creative Cloud which included Photoshop CC 2014 and Lightroom. Everything was working just fine until I upgraded to Lightroom version 5.6. Now when I try to load LR, the slash screen shows for a second then disappears and LR does not load. This occurs on both my Mac (a Mac Pro and a iMac). I uninstalled LR and had creative cloud reinstall but still the same thing is happening - Splash screen for a second then nothing. Again, this is happening on both Mac's. Photoshop CC 2014 I working just fine.
Before I call Adobe, any ideas here on this issue. BTW, Creative Cloud App states LR in up to date and installed.

T430U not booting - blank screen or never gets passed splash screen
System specs:
Lenovo T430U
Intel i5-3427U
8GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz SoDIMM Memory
HDD 500G 7200rpm Toshiba
mSATA 24GB Samsung Cache
Win 8 Pro, upgraded to 8.1
I rarely use this machine but a couple of months ago I went to boot it up and found that I was not able to get past the Windows splash screen. Sometimes I don't even get the Windows splash screen, I just get a black screen. Rarely I get a Windows screen saying that it is diagnosing a system problem or something to that effect and I can even get to where it will allow me to do some Windows diagnostics but nothing ever comes of it and the process is extremely slow.
I called Lenovo, but of course my machine is out of waranty so the tech just gave me a few pointers and said I could send it in to the depo but the potential repair cost could range up to about 75% of what I paid for the machine in the first place. Anyways, after having me try a few things in the BIOS he suggested that it was likely the hard drive. I mistakenly thought from the time that I bought this machine that the OS was installed on the 24 GB SSD so I ordered a new SSD and swapped it in. This made no difference at all as I have now learned that the mSATA SSD drive is merely for cache to speed up booting.
I am afraid that this means the main HDD is at fault, and quite frankly, if I replace it I am going to do a fresh install of Windows 7. But I do have pictures and docs that I would like to salvage if possible. Any ideas on what might be going on here?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Install this on the computer that you are going to hook up the hard drive to: https://www.piriform.com/recuva
I've had pretty good luck with it in getting files off of dying hard drives. Wrap the hard drive in a small towel and put it in the freezer for a half an hour, then take it out and hook it up and run recuva right away. You might get lucky.
It sounds funny but I've had it work more than once.

Is there a way to change the bios splash screen on the newer thinkpads?
I found a guide for the older ones but i'm not sure if it works for the newer ones (particularly the W520 for me): http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_change_the_BIOS_bootsplash_screen
Thanks!I looked at my T430s and it is as you describe, but I don't know of anyone who has done this since the UEFI BIOS was introduced, I haven't dealt with custom flash images since the T60. If it doesn't work, I would be afraid that the instructions might be outdated and just might not work.

Encore CS3 Freezing at Splash Screen
I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked and answered. I searched the forums, but I did not see this exact problem addressed. Here is my situation:
(1) I have the latest version of Encore CS3 (v3.0.1.008) installed, and it was previously working on my system (Dell/Intel Core Duo, Windows XP).
(2) Now when I try to start Encore CS3, it fails to load, freezing on the splash screen while attempting to load "DXCaptureSource.dll". However the program does not crash - it just remains frozen.
(3) I have Encore installed as a component of the CS3 Master Collection
(4) I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Encore to no avail
(5) I have already tried launching Encore with Version Cue running (both with and without the tray icon being displayed). This has had no effect on the problem.
(6) This seems like it could be a plug-in problem, but I have not added any plug-ins to Encore and do not use 3rd party plug-ins with any Adobe product.
(7) I had Nero Ultra Edition 7 installed on my PC and have since removed it. This may have been removed around the same time that Encore stopped working, but I do not know this for sure.
If anyone has an idea about what might be causing this issue or how to fix it, I would greatly appreciate the help. I am hoping to have this issue resolved quickly, as I have to work on authoring a DVD this weekend. Thanks in advance.

Splash Screen + Jar + DND + Linux = XServer Freeze?
I've experienced a strange problem with one of my programs which I believe to be a java bug, I just need help reproducing it in a small example.
Basically, I have a fairly large project (20,000 loc), which involves a bit of drag and drop of a custom JTree, custom JList, and some other things. Recently, we introduced a splash screen to the project. With that, I started getting reports of the program freezing people's linux computers. I looked into it and was able to reproduce the problem. Here are my findings:
1) Disabling the splash screen stops the freezing. This is an undesirable workaround, since the program takes a long time to load, but aside from disabling Drag and Drop, this has been the only workaround I've found so far.
2) The freezing only occurs if the project is packed into a jar. Running from Eclipse or running the class files does not produce the problem.
3) The freeze occurs briefly after the user completes a Drag and Drop. There are other methods to complete these actions which do not involve drag and drop, but these methods do not cause the freeze, thus the problem is with the DND.
4) I was unable to reproduce this problem with Windows
Upon freezing, I am still able to move the mouse cursor, but it get stuck on a certain pointer (which, since this is briefly after the DND completion, could be anything. I've obtained states such as invisible, I-beam, and pointer). Music also continues to play. Open windows, however, stop responding to attempts to bring them to front, minimize them, interact with them, etc - they are essentially frozen. Ctrl+C does not kill the offending process, even if it was run from the terminal.
There are 2 ways to recover from the freeze: Hard Reboot, or ssh in and kill the java process that way.
This has led me to conclude that it is the XServer freezing.
Now the weird thing is, I'm unable to reproduce this with a small test program which involves all 4 of the mentioned components.
Anybody know anything about this problem? Anybody else experienced this or able to reproduce this?
My project is open source and I'd be more than happy to share a jar of it if it helps you any, or it can be accessed from an SVN. Like I said, though, it's 20,000 loc or so, so I doubt you'd want to look through it to find the problem. I've also created a small test program using the main freeze-worthy components (Splash screen, jar, DND), but it does not cause the freeze. I can provide that program if anybody's interested.
Please help, this is very irritating, and I'm starting to get some unhappy clients.OK, so I managed to replicate it on relatively small code, here comes the code:

Vado doesn't boot up / stuck in the splash screen
My recently bought Creative Vado HD doesn't boot anymore - I press the power button and I only see the red led blink for a second. Before this it used to turn on, but wouldn't get out of the splash screen "VADO HD". (and it wouldnt turn off, only if I took out the battery)
The camera has frozen sometimes before, but then I would take the battery out and put it in again to have it working ok. Now reinsertingthe battery doesnt fix it.
If I connect the vado to the pc, it just shows the splash screen and doesnt boot or even charge the battery (I left it connected ov3ernight but It didnt charge the battery, It just killed it because it stayed all night showing the splash screen. - and thats why , i think, it only shows the red light blink instead of showing the splash screen when i try to turn the camera on.
I dont know if this issue might have triggered the problem but here it is:
minutes before vado died I connected the vado to my vizio tv and watched some videos. Then I pulled the hdmi cable and connected the camera to the pc. I noticed it wasnt detected at all -- the vado was stuck in the splash screen.
i cant install a firmware or anything else because the camera is not detected and is stuck in the splash screen.Hi Setmedown,
It sounds like something is wrong with the Vado HD, if you have not already I would suggest contacting our Customer Support.
