U310 Clean Windows 7 Installation

I bought a U310 which suffers from a very slow Wifi perfomance. The problem seems to be know in this forum.
Apart from that I'd prefer a clean Windows 7 installation without the "Lenovo overhead" and with my Win7 Professional liscence.
I prepared a USB pen drive to be bootable and tried the setup from the stick. Somehow the Windows 7 setup does not seem to recognize any drives and partitions to install on. I guess I have to include the intel storage driver on my setup usb stick? But on the other hand, shouldn't the normal hdd (500 Gb) be recognizabe for the setup?
In Windows storage manager, I see what I suppose is the 32GB SSD, but its only shown as 32GB.
Any hints on how to be able to fully use the 32GB SSD and install Windows on it?
Thanks

Hi,
the method described below is theoretical, I haven't tried it yet:
if you want to use the SSD cahce for installing Windows on it, you have to break up the raid array on it. After that you should see unallocated space.
If you don't want to use RapidStart, you can force delete the hibernation partition to gain extra 8GB space. (note: you have to disable it in the bios too)
Then you sould download the Rapid Storage F6 drivers (x86 or x64, based on your future installation architecture) and copy it on the usb drive.
During windows install, load the drivers from the disk. And install the system on the ssd cache drive.

Replacing preinstalled Windows with "normal" and clean Windows installation (T500)

Hello,
is there any way, how to replace preinstalled Windows with my super-clean installation of Windows? I'm really not happy with partitioning (honestly, I'm using Linux, so I want just Win partition, Boot partition, Extended partition (with root, home, swap) --- no recovery partition, no foobar partition, which just make no sense for me), given features which I don't need etc. I would rather have clean setup of Windows 7 and have computer installed my way. Also I don't like such toolbar things, and crappy ware of Lenovo already installed.
I can backup Windows 7 activation and restore it to new clean installation - so I don't need to buy new disc... But - where can I get that clean Windows 7 Ultimate shiny disc? Do anyone know? Is it possible to download it from MS site?

The preloaded Windows 7 will probably run faster than a retail version due to the EE optimized drivers. Just uninstall Norton, the Office 2010 Starter trial, the additional media software, and you should be good to go.

Lenovo U310: Clean Windows 7 Installation Guide (including Rapid Start and Caching)

Hi there,
this is the first time that I am writing such a guide/tutorial/whatever you may call it – there are probably better ones, but though not being a total computer noob, it took me almost one week to get this pretty (now again) little beast running again. So hopefully this helps some others to avoid such stupid downtimes.
A brief overview on what has happened to my original win 7 Home Premium:
As some may know, this laptop is very well usable as a “Hackintosh” called Macbook clone. So that’s what I did. It turned out to be nice, but I wanted to go back to Windows after a while, using a clean W7 Pro installation to start over. Actually an easy task, format all drives, install Windows, be happy. Just as I had been doing this for years. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a real challenge. First, I couldn’t “see” my drives during installation (and thus not install), then I got random errors during installation aborting it at different points and finally rapid start and caching didn’t work. Every time I tried to activate them (after Win installation), it crashed my PC. I even found an (official Lenovo!) guide stating to install W7 on the SSD, which worked, but sucks due to space limitations. Oh and another very nice thing: The SSD showed up during WIN installation (but not the classical hard drive) stating it was about 60 GB. So as you can see, I have had a lot of different tries and errors. Why I didn’t use Lenovo Easy Recover? As said before, I erased all partitions…
Before we start: If you have a good Windows running on the Laptop, do yourself a favor and disconnect the RAID 0 disks using the Intel Rapid Storage Application before(!!!) proceeding. It will make things much easier. And don’t forget to get all you data on an external drive or something.
Ok, now let’s start.
1.)    Prepare a USB Stick with the following driver
         http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=21730 (choose f6flpy-x64.zip If you’re running a
         64-bit system (standard nowadays), take f6flpy-x86.zip if it is a 32-bit Windows, just download and copy them
         into the stick’s root directory) and plug this stick in one of the left side USB ports.
2.)    You’ll need Win 7 on either a DVD (plus external drive, for sure) or (bootable) USB stick
3.)    Connect your drive/stick (with W7) to the right side USB port.
4.)    Switch the computer on, immediately hit FN and F2. That will open the BIOS.
5.)    In the BIOS, navigate to the very right section (“save and exit”) and navigate the cursor to “load setup defaults”.
         Hit enter to approve.
6.)    After that, go to the “boot” tab and disable UEFI-boot.
7.)    Next, go one more tab to the left and set the controller setting to RAID (NOT AHCI or Compatible!!!).
8.)    Navigate the cursor down to “Intel Rapid Start” and hit enter. A submenu will pop up-
9.)    Disable the first entry in that window, that will make the rest be disabled as well.
10.) Navigate to the very right tab, this time hit save and exit.
11.) The PC restarts.
12.) Immediately hit FN and F12 to open the boot selection menu. Select to boot from your W7 DVD drive or USB
        stick.
13.) Click yourself through the whole process of installing Windows 7 until the page comes up where you will have
        to select where to install it.
14.) Click on “load drivers” and after a few seconds your downloaded driver should be there. Click ok to use them.
        Please do this step even if you can see your drives (SSD Disk 0, 32 GB and HDD Disk 1, 465(<-?) GB) as you
        would expect them – otherwise you’re very likely to get an error during the install process.
15.) Now erase all partitions on both drives and select the HDD as the drive to install W7 to – NOT THE SSD!!!!!
        Seriously, don’t choose the SSD.
16.) Windows will probably say that some extra partitions are necessary and so on, click ok and install Windows.
17.) After the installation has finished and you see your Desktop, I suggest you to proceed with the next steps in the
        following order to see as early as possible if you are on the right way.
18.) Install the Chipset driver, restart.
19.) Install the Intel Rapid Storage “driver” and check the box where it asks to additionally install the control center.
        Reboot.
20.) Go into BIOS (FN and F2) and enable Intel Rapid Start (the one you disabled in Step 8 and 9)
21.) Boot into Windows.
22.) Click on the Windows button, type cmd and right klick on the cmd.exe, select to run it as Admin.
23.) Now you’ll create a hibernation partition on the SSD. (which by now should be completely empty as we’ve
        deleted all partitions in step 15)
24.) In the command prompt that we have just opened, type: (without quotas, for sure)
“diskpart” and hit the enter button
“list disk” and hit the enter button
Now you should see your ssd as disk 0 and your hdd as disk 1
If your ssd is disk 0 (that would be standard), write “select disk 0”, otherwise write: “select disk 1”, and hit the enter button.
Now write “create partition primary size=4096” and hit enter again. [if you have 4GB of ram, type 4096, if you have 8 GB of ram, use 8192]
Now write “detail disk” and hit enter to see the volume number behind the volume that we have just created (it is 4 GB or 8 respectively, should be easy to find), in my case that was “2”
Now type “select volume 2” if your 4 or 8 GB volume has number 2 as well, otherwise use the number you found out in step f. Hit enter.
Finally, type: “set id=84 override” and hit enter for one last time.
It should now say back that the id has been set successfully.
Exit the command prompt. (close)
25.) Reboot
26.) Install the Rapid Start driver. Reboot.
27.) Open the Intel Rapid Storage Application.
28.) Click on accelerate and approve the settings. Two RAID’s will be created. Reboot.
29.) Install the remaining drivers, have fun with Windows Update and that’s it!
Good luck to all of you… And hey Lenovo - wouldn't that have been your job after all these posts showing your costumers in trouble? Just my two cents...
If you want, you can now turn on UEFI-boot in BIOS.
PS: If, after installing all drivers, you happen to see one unknown device in your device manager – this one belongs to Lenovo Connect Software that came with your Laptop. (Updates FB, Email etc when PC is in sleep mode) If you install Lenovo Connect it’s going to be fine, however, I would not recommend it as it is said to use a lot of energy and cause some other problems. So just live with it, your PC is totally fine without it.
Kind regards from Shanghai

Seriously guys, I can't use my 3 days old laptop. Some help would be mostly appreciated. At this point, the network connection issue doesn't show up anymore, it's just a blank screen after reboot. I reinstall windows and do it all over again just to achieve the same result.
Now couple of things caught my attention: as I load the "6flpy-x64.zip" driver from step 14, I get a message saying I need to install signed drivers, because unsigned ones are likely to mess up the system.
Secondly, I could not find any Rapid Storage Technology drivers for Windows 7 (particularly for U310 model), so I use the Windows 8 ones (http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS031455), which seems a silly thing, yet I know of no alternatives.
Could it be any of these issues to cause my problem? Or smth else? Please help!

Can't install drivers after a clean Windows installation

I am using Lenovo g560 and my current OS is the 64 bit Windows 7. I can't wirelessly connect to the internet without the drivers, but entered the support site from another computer and downloaded the appropriate drivers. At first I tried to install a wireless device driver but and error showed up starting with "The contents of this file cannot be unpacked." I then tried to install the BIOS update, everything went well until at the end I got the error "IHISI: EC write with progress bar error in SMI!" after that the device rebooted itself. I tried to run the BIOS update file again, but now it says "File is corrupt". The chipset driver instalation went fine. After this it still says "The contents of this file cannot be unpacked..." when I try to install a wireless driver.

hey Nihlathak,
which driver did you use ? Can you pass me the link.

(GT683) Windows installation question!

Hello fellow MSI-owners. I just bought myself an MSI GT683 today, and I have two questions.
1. It came with Windows 7 pre-installed. But how do I do if I want to do a new/clean installation of windows?
2. If I want to make a full, new and totally clean windows installation. Is it ok to buy Vista or Windows 7 and simply install it. Or will I encounter any problems with partitions and stuff?

Quote
I am just reading in another thread that people are having problems with Windows finding the hardware after a clean installation of the GT683.
What is that about?
That is most probably just people who don't know what they're doing.
Windows 7 is pretty modern, and probably already includes most required drivers. After install is complete, just check Device Manager and see which devices need drivers, which can be downloaded from here:
http://eu.msi.com/product/nb/GT683.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win7%2064
Note that any devices such as bluetooth, Wi-Fi and webcam will need to be turned on before Windows will detect them.

U310 - install Windows 7 / 8 on SSD

Hello,
I've recently bought an IdeaPad U310 with a 24 GB SSD + 500 GB HDD and Windows 8 licence. The thing is that the laptop came with the Windows 8 installed on the HDD and the SSD is almost empty (1 GB used from 24 GB). I would like to know if it's possible to install Windows on the SSD drive for faster boot times and generally a faster operating system or at least if it's worth trying considering that I'll lose the Windows 8 licence.
I want to install Windows 7 or 8 on the SSD and everything else will be kept on the HDD.
Thanks!

hi mpernea,
Welcome to the Forums.
In addition to what LenBlazer have said, you will most likely run out of space on the SSD overtime when you install applications. Also, when you install a program and put it on the HDD, it will run on HDD speed as the target file is saved under the HDD's sector and thus, you will not benefit from the SSD's read speed.
If you really want to proceed though, you will need to:
1. Boot into the BIOS and set the following settings:
Configuration Tab:
- change the SATA controller mode from RAID to AHCI and disable UEFI boot (if applicable)
- Link to Picture
Security Tab:
- disable Secure Boot (if applicable)
Boot Tab:
- disable UEFI Boot
- Link to Picture
2. When done, press F10 to save and exit BIOS and boot from the Windows 7 installation disc (by tapping F12 on power-up and select ODD). On the Windows 7 installation screen, press Shift+F10 to open a command prompt and type the following:
- diskpart
- list disk
- sel disk 1 (where disk 1 is your SSD)
- clean
- exit
3. Close the command prompt and install Windows 7 on the unallocated space of the SSD
4. When Windows installation is finished, you will need to press F12 on boot-up to start windows from the SSD or you can permanently change the Boot order in the BIOS's boot tab
Alternatively, you can get a bigger mSATA SSD to accomodate your data needs (this will be beneficial if you install alot of apps / play games that requires fast boot-up).

This solution correct my bug.
I had the same error in with the i-tunes installation and i did this and it worked.... This works for any i tunes that fails to install itself on 64 Bit
You have to go into your registry.
Start, run, type in “regedit”.
Next go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
SYSTEM
CurrentControlSet
Services
MSIServer
To the right you’ll see WOW64. Double click on it, or right click on it and click on modify. Change the setting from 1 to 0.
Next, go to the start menu again and type in the search box: “services.msc”.
Look for and find the Windows Installer service.
Double click on it and tell it to stop. Next, tell it to start.
You should now be able to install your programs.
------ By the way I dont have the WOW64 option is not available.
I was able to install quick time just fine. All of the other apple software associated with itunes installed fine but itunes did not. Im not sure if there is a virus that could do this. I didnt delete anything but apple folders.
I have tried other things but i cant remember exactly there were.
When the install process for itunes is running it changes with the error message shows up during install.
Thanks.

I should have posted this earlier, but anyway. I restored my laptop to factory version after backing up any useful data, and the first thing I the laptop was restored was connect to the internet, download and install the latest version of iTunes. And Bingo! It worked.
Apple helps you find Original Sin with the Windows.

I am trying to update iTunes but get this box message comes up, "Network error occurred while attempting to read from the file: c:/windows/installer/itunes.msi" I have be told to uninstall all iTunes then reinstall, if I do this will I lose my Library

Looking on the net to solve this problem, it says
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
I have save all my iTunes on a CD.
If I uninstall iTunes, will I lose my iTunes library and video and apps and inturn will I lose this off my phone..
I have tryed to update my iPhone firmware as they said there is a new update firmware, it would not install this and put my phone into recovery mode and I had to use iPhone recovery fix to get it out of recovery mode, my iPhone did a back-up before it tried to update the firmware.
Any idea's are welcome

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Trying to install SAP Business One 8.8 on a clean Windows 7 professional pc

Hi, i am trying to install SAP Business One V 8.8 on a clean Windows 7 professional laptop. I need to install the server and client sides. I have already installed SQL server express 2005.
When i try to to install the server software I get the error message 1628 installation failed almost straight away. I ket the same message if I try and install the server tools, SBo server or outlook integration.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
Simon

Hi Simon,
Solution to Problem ID :1618
Try the following Steps :
1. Clear the 'Temporary' Folder of Windows 7 : Start ->Run->%temp%->Press 'Enter'->Select All & Delete
2. Restart your machine. (This is Must)
Actually it keeps an image of the previous installations, so always for re-installation you need to perform this steps.
Same is with Win 2008 Server editions also.
Now proceed with the installation and remember always run SBO installations in Windows 7 and 2008 Server by clicking on 'Run as Administrator'
Hope your problem would be solved.

Saikat Roy

I can't install Itunes because of Windows installer package error, please help!

I tried installing Itunes for a long time on my desktop, I'm running Vista. Everytime I try to install Itunes it runs for a bit, then gives me this message
" There is a problem with Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
I went through many posts on how to solve this problem, I uninstalled and deleted all the files from this thread : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
and tried to reinstall Itunes, didn't work, same error message.
After i tried to install Itunes in Clean boot still didn't work.
I also downloaded MicrosoftFixit.Program which apperantly fixed this problem for some people, not for me.
Then I extracted Itunes and tried to install all the components seperately, everything installed correctly, however when I tried to install Apple Software update
I got the same error message, i think it is the Apple software update that is causing this problem but I have no idea how to solve this problem.
How do I solve this, any thoughts or suggestions???

Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
Now, uninstall Bonjour from Control Panel.

Hello!
Recently I performed a clean windows 7 install from a windows install disk I previously owned, the problem is that this disk didn't intalled the drivers and programs specific for this computer. What I want to know is which driver or program I need to install to make the volume controller on my computer to work again? The problem is that the volume bar that previously appeared on the screen and the "bing" sound indicating the volume level doesn't appear or sound now.
All other things seem to work fine, this is the only problem so far.
Thanks!

Hi,
Try downloading and installing the latest HP OSD Utility on the following link.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55152.exe
After the installation has completed, restart the notebook.
Regards,

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
