Which lenovo models have BIOS option to choose discrete graphics

I am planning on buying a Lenovo with an Nvidia graphics card.
Apparently, only the expensive Lenovos have an option in the BIOS to choose 'discrete graphics' or the dedicated graphics card.
The cheaper Lenovos only have a choice between 'Switchable graphics' and 'UMA only'( which I guess is the integrated graphics).
Can someone tell me which is the least expensive Lenovo model that has an option to choose 'Discrete graphics' in the BIOS ?
Thanks.

The W520, by Indian standards, is an expensive model.

     Didn't know that, thanks for the tip! It is not what I had in mind specifically, but might be useful.

    I've always found Lenovo light on crapware compared to the competition. It doesn't take long to zap. Have you seen any other vendors' systems recently?
    Corporate users generally like to create their own custom image, and don't use the factory preload.
    Few weeks back we had 12 Dell Vostro-something to install. Not Thinkpad X220 class, but they came with nothing preinstalled, except for simple backup/restore util. 
    Actually I appreciate tools like Access Connections, System Update, Toolbox and I'm not considering them as crapware.
    What I don't like in X220 - there is a lot of things like NIS, Chome, Google Toolbar, some Office templates, etc. In my opinion, it could be better to give user a choice after startup, do install this stuff or to delete it and recover precious (SSD!) disk space.
    I won't be using this X220 myself, at least not very often, but I'm about to order new T420 for my use, so possibly another experiences will be coming, only if I'll have some spare time.

  • Why do I only have photos option to choose from for uploading my resume?

    I'm applying for jobs and have Dropbox plus PDF but when it comes to attaching my resume on job sites I only have the option to choose from photos.  Why?!!!!  Why in the heck do I only have this ONE limited option?  I have PDF and Dropbox- how come I can't choose my resume from there to attach my resume on job applications on line? 
    Is there some setting or some kind of control I need to fix?  Any feedback appreciated. Sorry, I'm frustrated!

    There are are certain functions that can only be executed during the "WhilePrintingRecords" pass of the report execution. Any formula that uses one of these functions cannot be summarized.
    Also any formula that is is based on aggregated values cannot be summarized.

  • I just reformatted my laptop (it's like new now). When I plug in my iPod/iPhone, in the Photos section, I don't have the option of choosing iPhoto to sync albums to my devices. What do I do?

    I just reformatted my laptop (it's like new now). When I plug in my iPod/iPhone, in the Photos section, I don't have the option of choosing iPhoto to sync albums to my devices. What do I do so I iPhoto becomes an option in iTunes?

    I didn't have iPhoto so I had to purchase it from the App store but that didn't help. I think the problem is because my devices still think they are synced to the previous version of my mac, but I don't know how to get them to sync with the new setup.

  • Firefox 4 does not have the option of choosing which page to go back to

    Previous versions of Firefox (and IE) have a down arrow as part of the page back/page forward facility. This gives the option of how many pages you can go back or forward from the current open page.
    Firefox 4 no longer has this facility. This is not a posaitive move on Mozilla's part. Will it be restored at the first update?

    Here on Firefox 4.01. And the option you look for is still there but they replaced it's position: it now is on the right of the URL bar together with the refresh-button and the add-bookmark-button.
    Personally I think it's a bad place for that back-button because it was perfectly and logically placed where it was.

  • Which T400 models have LED backlit screen?

    Hey guys, I'm looking to buy a new Thinkpad T400, and because of the Inetrnational warrenty problems, I cant customize one on Lenovo.com. Hence I'm searching for a pre-configured model.
    The problem is I cant seem to find one that has the LED backlight other than the 2767. Am I missing something?
    I'm looking for a model with the LED backlight, 2.2-2.8 ghz processor, at least 160GB 7200 HD, and the dedicated graphics.
    The only model I found which has these is the 2767 R9U which has loads of things I really dont want, like blu-ray, bluetooth, camera etc. These things raise the price to around 2,500$.
    Is there a model I'm missing or is this really the only option other than customizing?
    Thanks.

    That model number is not listed as having an LED screen in tabook

    What do I do now if I want to transfer my iTunes from my PC to my Mac? If Migration Assistant isn't giving me the options the tutorial says I'm suppose to have, I'm lost!

    Sory, I can't find the name of the MacUser who steered me onto the right path, but do think I remember thanking him via e-mail.
    If I'm mistaken, thanks a bunch. I finally finished transferring all the photos onto a CD. Actually completed one project , which I was able to test on a PC.
    Have run into a second, smaller one on the current project, which I I think I probably should post separately.

  • TS4036 My old iPhone got damage and sprint changed it when I try to restore from iCloud I don't have the option to choose the latest back up instead it restored a version that is like 192 days old. How can I see the restore that I want?

    Hello
    Today I got my iPhone 4s changed from sprint and when I enter my icloud information it gives me an old backup (196 days old) and I back up automatically all nights , there was no choice to select which one I wanted or anything. So I ended up loosing a lot of important information, all the pictures and everything that I did the past 196 days. I try to see if there is a place on the web that the back up data is displayed but I haven't found anything. I have a lot of important information on icloud, to the extend that I even pay for more space because I use the  iPhone as part of my work. Can someone please explain to me what has happen and if there is a way that I can recover my information? I am desperate it is very important. Thank you very much!

    Once in a while the restore process seems to mess up.  What I don't understand is why you would perform a weekly restore.
    At any rate, if you must restore, perform a device reset (settings>general>reset) and then you will have the opportunity to restore from iCloud.  Restore a device whenever it no longer works correctly, not just as a matter of maintenance.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

  • Why do I not have the option (the choose file option is grayed out) to upload pictures to more than a few places I have tried

    I am having a problem uploading photos to basically every place but Facebook. I have contacted these sites and they give instruction on how to do it but the "choose file" button is grayed out on some, OR it says, "if your device doesn't have the capability to upload send your pictures to us. I am assuming u can't upload pictures with iPad 2? Or is it just me.....more than one site doing this, is there a setting somewhere?
    Thanks :)

    I can't find an app, but was also wondering is there a third party service like photobucket that would work on the ones that don't have an app?

  • While listening to music in my car, I don't have the option to choose between bluetooth and headphones anymore. Why?

    On IOS 6 and earlyer, I use to be able to choose between the bluetooth or the headphone jack. Now, I can only play music true my bluetooth and I can't pause the music. Anybody has a solution?

    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • My iphone 4s has a built in app called "voice Memos".  A colleague has an iPhone 4 unit which does not have this app. This has beem on my previous models.  Has it been discontinued? Is  it a carrier issue?

    "1  Which iphone models have the built in VOICE MEMOS app?  My 4S model has this, and i have also had this on my previous model.  A colleague has an iphone 4, and it is not showing.
    #2  Also, my 4S has a smart keyboard with the microphone icon to the left of the spacebar.  Which models have this?

    1) Either your friend has moved the icon into a folder or onto another screen, or they do not have a real iPhone (or their phone is jailbroken). It is present on all iPhones and can not be deleted.
    2) The 4S and higher have that. It requires Siri, which does not exist on the iPhone 4 and earlier.

  • I have an ipod touch 5th generation, bought a new laptop and authorised it. when i try to sync it says it's not possible because there isn't enough space to hold everything in the itunes library.it won't give me the option of choosing what i want to sync.

    I have an ipod touch 5th generation 64g . Just bought a new laptop and authorised it to use itunes library. When i try and sync my ipod it says it can't do it because there isn't enough space on my ipod to hold everything in the itunes library. I already know that i can't fit everything on my ipod but when using my old laptop i was able to choose what i wanted to sync. Now i don't seem to have the option of choosing what i can sync, it just refuses to do it as there isn't enough space. Why is this???
