When I turn on my Lenovo Thinkpad T440p...

It starts off by showing "lenovo" like it usually does.
After a minute under the lenovo name it says "preparing automatic repair" and begins loading (This doesnt usually happen)
After another minute it says "Diagnosing your PC" and continues loading
Then after another minute it says "Reparing disk errors. This might take over an hour to complete." and continues loading.
After 3 more minutes the laptop shuts down and restarts.
Then the laptop starts up with the "lenovo" name again
After a minute under the lenovo name it says "preparing automatic repair" and begins loading.
So then it just continues down this endless loop, after that it will say "Diagnosing your PC" and then "Reparing disk errors. This might take over an hour to complete." but it never fixes anything it just restarts.
Please help me I just want to start windows like it usually does.

Hi Robfagan887,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I think there might be issue with Operating System or with storage drive. If possible can you check with reseating the HDD/SSD drive?
Use the below link to know the steps on how to boot the system into safe mode option.

Hope this helps.

When booting I get an Error 0210: Stuck Key 01 Lenovo Thinkpad

Hello,
When powering on I get this error
"Error 0210: Stuck Key 01
Press <F1> to Setup" Please give your valuable suggestions. Thanks in advance. Sukumar

Hi Sukumar,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
I’m sorry to hear that you are getting stuck key error in your Lenovo ThinkPad.
Stuck key error means that one or more keys on the keyboard are stuck. It's possible that a liquid spill can also cause one or more keys to electrically "short" causing the error. Inspect the keyboard and check if any keys are mechanically stuck.
If you're mechanically handy you can remove the keyboard, inspect any chances of damage or corrosion. Plug it back and see if error is still occurring.
Reset BIOS to default settings. Perform Flee Power – remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer. Hold the power button for 10-15 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and turn ON the computer.
If none of the above said helped to resolve your concern, I strongly recommend you to contact our technical support for assistance.
Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.
Best Regards,

I get an error message when trying to connect my iphone to a lenovo thinkpad

I cannot get my Iphone to work on the Lenovo Thinkpad edge 520, when I connect the phone it brings up an error saying there was a problem loading the device. In the control panel I get a yellow exclamatin mark next to the mobile usb device. I tried to update the OS of the phone and the driver on the laptop, and uninstalled the viris program.

The iPhone will NOT pair with any computer via bluetooth with the expetion being for tethering an internet connection. This has NEVER been a feature of the iPhone or any iOS device.

Lenovo Thinkpad T400 takes too long to turn on

Hi guys, I need your help to fix this computer.
I have experience as a technician, but I'm stuck trying to fix this laptop.
When I turn on the laptop, it does not matter if it's on battery only, plugged it (with or without battery), it only turns the Bluetooth, the one that looks like a z, and the battery (green because it's charged) lights on. A blank screen last for about 10 to 15 minutes, and then the Thinkpad logo appears and everything goes as normal.
I've done:
-Update the BIOS
-Removed battery and press the On button for 30 seconds.
-I did the procedure described in the link below and still nothing
http://jackngblog.blogspot.com/2011/03/solved-slow-bootup-with-blank-screen-on.html
I even disable the Intel AMT in the BIOS thinking that it could be the issue, but still nothing. I've googled the tittle I wrote and a lot of things appears, but not exactly this issue, the one that was near was the third one I tried. I searched here and I did not find anything like it yet.
Please help,
Thank you very much for any guide.

It shouldn't do that. Try a factory reset. If that doesn't fix it, exchange it for another at the store you bought it.

Lenovo thinkpad L412 blue screen when i move my laptop

i am using lenovo thinkpad L412 laptop
my screen gets blue screen when i move my laptop. if i dont move it it just works fine.
i tried to update my stytem for latest driver and software but still problem doesnt go away.
i also run the diagnostic test for hardware but it doesnt show any problem.

You can't have a blue screen in bios, blue screens are a "feature" of Windows OS.
What is the error code mentioned on the blue screen? This could give information about the nature of the problem.
You could also try to boot from a Linux Live cd distribution, such as Ubuntu for example (no need to install it, just boot from it). If the Live cd works well then most probably this is not a hardware problem but drivers related as somebody already suggested.
Please tell us the machine type of your laptop, the operating system used and any hardware changes you have made (added memory, changed hard disk etc). Give as much details as possible!

When I upgraded to Firefox 7 I lost my ability to scroll using my ultraNav Track Point or my UltraNav Touch Pad on my Lenovo Thinkpad.

When I upgraded to Firefox 7 I lost my ability to scroll using my ultraNav Track Point or my UltraNav Touch Pad on my Lenovo Thinkpad. I can still scroll on Internet Explorer or in other applications. How do I fix this?

Thank you for a super fast and helpful response!
It took me a few attempts to get it right. Last time I tried it I got the card id wrong.
For others: I created the following file
/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
with the contents
options snd-hda-intel id=Generic1 index=1
I rebooted. I accepted the KDE prompt about devices being removed. I unmuted everything with alsamixer again.
Sound now works in VLC (audio settings to default) and Firefox, and also in both at the same time. Kmix also works as expected when I set the Master Channel to HD Audio Generic. Headphones jack also works.

Lenovo Thinkpad T410 got errors with Fingerprint sensor device! So frustrating!

I have just bought a new Lenovo Thinkpad T410 2518-FAA from one of main agencies of Lenovo in my country. The new-buy laptop was said to be totally new, i.e. it was not a re-furbished, and I actually checked for manything to confirm the real status of this laptop. However, when I bought it back to my house, a serious problem appeared. At the laptop store, I did not have enough time to check the Fingerprint device, thus I skipped to check it. When I came back home, the Fingerprint sensor error of this new-buy laptop completely drived me crazy!!! I installed the Fingerprint software of Lenovo, but this software continuously reported errors: "Can not enroll users, can not update passport, and can not find fingerprint sensor device." I have tried uninstalled and reinstalled this software many times, and already checked for the latest version of this software, it was Thinkvantage Fingerprint sofware 5.9.3 for Win 7-32 bit. My operation system is Win 7-32 bit. But these errors still appeared again and again. I already checked the status of TouchChip Fingerprint Coprocessor in Biometric Devices, uninstalled then re-installled this device, and it showed that this device was working properly and up-to-date, and I already unchecked the option "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", but all of my efforts was in vain!!! These errors still appeared and it drives me crazy! Up to now I had been unable to enroll my fingerprint to set up the fingerprint reader! These 3 errors just kept prompting in front of my eyes! Another problem is that the laptop can transfer files to my Nokia E51 mobile via Bluetooth, but I could not make the reverse transfer for a file from this mobile to laptop! Oh, I am very disappointed about Lenovo now! Inside the manufacture box that carried the laptop, there are just some instruction guides without any installation CD for installing Thinkvantage softwares... I had to go to the website of Lenovo and find a bunch of links of softwares that I tried many times but I still did not know how to donwload... I had to donwload the Thinkvantage Fingerprint software from another website... Please help me, guys! Did you encounter the same problem with me? May you please instruct me how to solve these problems! Thank you a lot!

hey Moon_Light,
i would suggest uninstalling all ThinkVantage software, then go to http://support.lenovo.com ; download all drivers for you unit and install.
at the same time do a bios update as well.

Fingerprint Scanner not working on ThinkPad T440p under Windows 10

Question
The fingerprint reader on my ThinkPad T440p isn't working after updating to Windows 10.
I looked up my FP reader on the Windows Update Catalog for drivers, and the ones there are the same as what I have installed now under Win 7, over a year old. They don't have any Win 10 drivers listed in the Catalog.
Setting up the fingerprint reader is greyed out for me in account settings. Driver is installed and device is working. Pin is set.
Answer
On the screen where the fingerprint button is greyed out, check for a warning/error text at the top in red.
The message will be similar to: “Some settings are managed by your organization”. If this is displayed, try the following:
You can fix this problem by deleting a registry entry:
Open Regedit and navigate to here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WinBio\Credential Provider
find the value "Enabled=0" and delete it.
Reboot, then try to enroll fingers again.
This registry entry gets set when you uninstall Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro on Windows 7, prior to the upgrade to Windows 10.
Additional considerations:
If you uninstall Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro before upgrading to Win10, then you run into the issue that you found with the "Enabled=0" registry which prevents fingerprint enrollment on Win10.
If you wait to try to uninstall Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro after upgrading to Win10, then you get an error message during the uninstallation like “Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro is not support on the operating system running” and the software cannot be uninstalled. Fingerprint will still work on Win10 even if Lenovo Fingerprint Manager Pro stays installed. This second scenario is being investigated.
Please see related article for additional information on Fingerprint reader support on ThinkPads for Windows 10

Since installing window 10 on my G505 laptop I have been having jerky sound. All the drivers say they are up to date. klt

Lenovo Thinkpad problem with the display

It seemed to happen when I was trying to type out a character using the Ascii code number. Instead of holding down Alt and typing 156 I held down Alt Gr. That was the last thing I think I did when it turned. I remember from years ago there was a 3 or 4 button routine that would turn the image upside down on the screen but I can't remember that either. But, AS WELL lol, the touchbad has stayed the same !!!. So now down = left, up = right, left = up and right = down.
thanks
afvallen in een week

Erm ... appreciate if you can let us know the ThinkPad model which you are using so the community would could test it if they are having the similar model.
Also which button is Alt Gr? Try going into Intel Display control panel to swap the display, if I remember correctly there is an option there to swap the display back to normal.
*Non Lenovo employee*
I have a Y2P (i5) ... Feel free to ping me if you want me to test some applications with your Y2P if you have the same model. I don't mind keep doing recovery on it if needed .... =)

Lenovo Thinkpad T520 doesn't boot with GPT slices on FreeBSD 9-BETA3 - BIOS bug?

Hi!
I've bought a brand new Lenovo Thinkpad T520 laptop and decided to install FreeBSD 9 Beta 3 following this guide.
But when I rebooted the system, it simply doesn't boot (turns out to the BIOS boot menu).
It's even doesn't boot with default FreeBSD 9 UFS-on-GPT installation scheme through bsdInstaller
Changing BIOS (latest, 1.31) settings BIOS Startup->UEFI/Legacy Boot from "Both" to "Legacy only" has no effect. As FreeBSD AFAIK doesn't support UEFI boot, legacy boot should work picking up and starting pmbr (protected MBR record), but it doesn't.
However, FreeBSD 9 UFS-on-MBR installation (with mbr boot record and FreeBSD slice in MBR partition instead of GPT) works fine.
It seems to me that UEFI/Legacy Boot "Legacy" setting actually has no effect if 0xEE type Primary partition entry is present on disk.
First of all, has anyone installed Linux or FreeBSD with GPT partitioning scheme on latest Thinkpads?
And the second one, as I've saw similar problem on FreeBSD forum thread about T420s laptop I believe that this may be a bug in the BIOS. How can I fill the bugreport or send an e-mail to support or developers, as, obvious, phone support can consult only about Windows OS.

I've got a suspicion that the Thinkpad bios/efi is not simply executing the first stage bootloader, but looking around on the GPT disk and then crapping its pants when it doesn't find Windows.
Right now I have a MBR-formatted harddisk in the ultrabay with the bootloader in the MBR. Once I get the bootloader off the MBR disk, I can easily continue to boot from my GPT-formatted SSD.
Yes, it seems that it's a BIOS bug at least on T520, T420s and W520 laptops. Even in "Legacy" mode first stage bootloader doesn't execute if partition type is 0xEE (GPT).
Hope Lenovo developers will fix it. They fixed something on BIOS 1.31

- Fixed an issue where the computer might not be booted from bootloader program.
but it doesn't work for now. Pity.

About Lenovo Thinkpad W540 for Music Production at a Professional Level

Hey there! I just signed up to this blog in search for an answer to my quest. I've heard a lot of good things about Lenovo ThinkPad W540, and I would like to make sure that I am getting what I really need to stay up to date, in this everyday changing technological world, for a while before making a purchase.
So far, this is what I got in my wish list:
Intel Core i7-4700MQ Processor (6MB Cache, up to 3.40GHz)
Windows 7 Professional 64
15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) LED Backlit Anti-Glare Display, Mobile Broadband Ready
W540 NVIDIA Quadro K1100M 2G
16GB PC3-12800 DDR3L (4 DIMM)
500GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
DVD Recordable
Intel Dual Band Wireless 7260AC with Bluetooth 4.0
1 Year Depot or Carry-in
I would like to know what are the major differences between the above items, which I have in my wish list, and the ones below:
1) Intel Core i7-4930MX Processor (8MB Cache, up to 3.90GHz)
2)15.5” 3K (2880 x 1620), IPS LED Backlit Anti-Glare Display, Mobile Broadband Ready, Color Sensor
3) W540 NVIDIA Quadro K2100M 2G
4) 32GB PC3-12800 DDR3L (4 DIMM)
5) I would like a 1TB hard drive but they don't come at 7200 rpm, i guess the one in my wish list works fine.
6) Do I need a more sophisticated Optical Drive from the DVD Recordable in my wish list?
I guess whay I am trying to investigate is if I can function in the music production world with a Thinkpad W 540 with the specs already in my wish list? And, what difference would it make updating this machine with the specs below. Your assistance and comments will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi ColonellONeill, thank you for taking your time in attempt to solve my problems.
Temperatures varies, but it never reached to unbearably hot.
Shutdown warning: for the last couple of times, I did got the blue screen warning (that windows had problem and will restart after collecting the necessary information) on my Helix and hanged display on my external monitor. Otherwise, most of the time, there isn't warning at all.
I doubt if there is anything to do automatic windows update as I have scheduled it every morning at 3 'O' clock! Sometimes it works from weeks to couple of months without even noticing any of these technical problems but then when it starts, it stays for weeks; it just comes and goes - never been able to resolve the issues completely; even the technician.
(It just happend right now! and this time wihtout even warning, and Helix wasn't even running 30 minutes - temperature is normal, I can feel it's little warm.)
Currently I am using my Helix with Thinkpad USB 3 dock connected to external Monitor with wired keyboard and mouse connected back at the dock.

HP Color Laserjet Pro MFP M277 will not install on Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Windows 7 64 bit

I tried to install printer driver software for my completely new HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP on my Lenovo ThinkPad X1 laptop. Lenovo runs on Windows 7 64 bit. The installation failed during Installation preparation (77% complete). The process stopped saying an error occured without indication of the cause of the error. I have tried installion both from the CD following the printer product and downloading from the HP web, with the same result. I then then turned on my old computer, a Dell Precision M2400 with Windows XP. The installation went perfect without problems on this computer. Is there a bug in the SW for Windows 7 (64), or is some part of the printer SW sensitive to HW variaton between PC companies even if the OS is the same?

I have the same problem with my Lenovo ThinkPad T420 running Windows 7 64 bit. Tried absolutely everything I could find on the blogs and nothing worked. To me, seems like a software problem (glaring, given the popularity of Lenovos and the Windows 7 64 bit systems). Returning the printer tomorrow and will not buy another HP printer.

I can scroll down web pages with my Lenovo ThinkPad X200. I could, but then I got some updates and it doesn't work. I can scroll fine with an external mouse. I just can't use the "scroll controls" on my laptop. Any ideas why? It's frustrating!

When I got my machine two years ago and loaded Firefox, I could scroll with the red button that's on the keyboard of the Lenovo ThinkPad x200. Then, a few months ago, Firefox was updated. Not sure which version. And, now I can't scroll. The keypad scroll works in MS Windows programs. It just doesn't work in Firefox. I can't get anywhere with the options so I'm stuck for now. (The scrolling works in Internet Explorer). So, I think it's something that going on with FireFox not with my computer.

In general, you are correct - but also your server does need to be properly configured (and those errors above lead me to think it may not be) to serve the file types that your uploading - but it could be something else entirely. Can you zip up your composition folder, upload it to your Creative Cloud files, set it to share, and then post a link here so I can download it? If you'd rather not share it publicly, can you PM me with a link to your composition files?
