Windows 8 Upgrade problems on IdeaPad s206-2638

OH, I have so many problems...
1) After clean install of win8-x64, I've tried first to setup the win8 drivers I've downloaded from lenovo site. ALL the drivers has NOT installed, and many error massages appeared.
Finally I've noticed that is a problem within extract process, ask me every time if I want to rewrite the Setup.exe file and more files. So I've extracted the files using WinRAR and I've got the files arranged on folders.
2) The folders arranged by devices brand, so now I had to guess if my touchpad, for example, is of Cypress or Synaptics. lenovo don't supply me any way to identify my devices.
3) Anyway, I got on the end, but two drivers still MISSING.
Built-in Camera driver. All the supplied drivers don't work.
Hotkey driver.
Thank for listening, and please help me with those drivers.

Windows Vista to Windows 7 Upgrade problems

I have ASUS desktop. I upgraded Windows Vista to Windows 7. When i start my pc I get a message Can't Open ASIosys!!(2). The first day I installed Windows 7 everything ran pretty good except for getting this message. I then did all the Microsoft Updates for Windows 7. After that my card readers are not reading my SD cards. I put a card in and the pc makes a noise but it's not reading the card and when I check under my computer it doesn't show the cards in the slots. I plugged in an external disk reader to see if it would recognize that but same problem.
I have a driver update program. I've scanned my pc with it but it says all drivers are installed.
Can anyone tell me what's going on?

Windows 8 upgrade problems (touch screen and audio)

my　computer is HP touchsmart 600 1005xt and recently upgraded from windows 7 to windows 8 (64-bit)
after up grading I noticed that the touch screen does not work and and the speakers also did not work

HI,
Here are a few tips that might help you to get your touch screen working:
Activate Windows and install updates by pressing the Windows logo key + W. Type "Activate Windows" into the search field, and then click on the Activate Windows icon that appears in the upper left corner of the screen. In PC Settings, click on Activate Windows, wait for your computer to connect to Microsoft, and then follow the onscreen instructions. Restart the computer. Press the Windows logo key + X, and select Control Panel from the menu. In the upper right corner of Control Panel, select Large Icons from the View by drop down. Click Windows Update. Install touch and/or graphics driver updates. Restart the computer.
Another thing to try: Go to the HP Support and Drivers site and click Drivers and Software. In the search field, enter your product name or number, and then click Next. Select your operating system from the drop-down, and then click next. (If you don't know if your operating system is 32- or 64-bit, press the Windows logo + X key again and select System from the menu.) Follow the onscreen directions to install any appropriate drivers. Restart the computer.
If the touch still doesn't work, try this: Press press the Windows logo + X key, and select Device Manager from the menu. In Device Manager, click the little triangle next to Display Adapters to expand the list. Right-click on the graphics card and select Disable. When asked if you want to disable the card, click yes. Restart the computer. You may have to tinker with your screen resolution.

Windows 8 upgrade problems with CS5

I upgraded to windows 8 and no I can't view images in CS5. The photos load (I see the image name and the image thumbnail in the layers pallet). but there is no picture to edit. It is like it is invisible. I have uninstalled and re-installed twice now and done all the updates. Microsoft keeps telling me they are compatible, but I can't figure out why I can't see pictures. Here is a screenshot. You can see the image background layer in the layers pallet, and I can even do adjustment layers. My image information is on the top left, but as you can see, no image! I'm at a loss.....
ETA: I guess my screen shot didn't work so I'll try uploadting an image...

It's a new OS, and the drivers are not yet all right.
Try going into Edit - Preferences - Performance, then pressing the [Advanced] button and changing the GPU mode to Basic. Make sure to close and restart Photoshop to test.
If that doesn't work, try disabling OpenGL Drawing entirely (again, close and restart). This could be an interim fix until new drivers are available.
Make sure to check for new drivers at the web site of the company that makes your video card.

[Desktop 3000 K100] Successful Windows 7 upgrade/install?

Hi,
I recently decided to move from Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit to Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit on my Lenovo Desktop 3000 K100 machine.
I already decided to go with a custom/clean install(I'm experienced in that area), instead of using the upgrade feature.
The question is that, have any of You(the 3000 K100 owners) tried and successfully moved to Windows 7 themselves, and now are happily enjoying the new OS, with no issues?
I've noticed that the K100 system is not listed in the "upgrade capable systems list":
http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/hk/en/htmls/1256358540190.html
But then again does Lenovo mean the actual "Free Windows 7 Upgrade Program", where they provide you with the free license for intended Windows 7 OS(you do pay for delivery of the Windows 7 dvd though, if I'm correct), or just that the drivers do not exist for the OS.
If it's the second reason, then I believe there's no worries since many articles on the web said that Windows Vista is essentially Windows 7 in a newer candy wrapping. Hence all the drivers should be working fine and be compatible for it.
I also ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisory, and at the beginning it told me that I should upgrade my Vista to SP1 before doing the upgrade. I did so successfully and now the Upgrade Advisory says that I'm set for the Windows 7(Not sure why I had to install SP1 thought, after all I'm doing a clean install). Even all the drivers were checked/marked as compatible for the Windows 7.
Already made all the necessary backups so I'm good there.
I did notice one post on these forums about the owner of 3000 K100 having major problems with Windows 7 upgrade. The post is located here:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Discussion/desktop-3000-K100-Windows-7-upgrade-problem-STOP-0x...
He did mention that he had made a bios update, and that might have been the main problem(I never touch bios, nor update it unless it is essential thing to do for me), but then again I may be very wrong about it.
So here I'm asking You, the owner of 3000 K100, if the move from Windows Vista to Windows 7 was smooth for you, or did you encouter problems and therefore should I stay away from that idea?

HI,
i've a Lenovo 3000 K100 with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits : it's working very well. No drivers to install, very stable.

Ideapad z400 touch after windows 10 upgrade

I am using the ideapad z400 touch and have been upgraded to windows 10. "Intel graphics card => I reinstalled the windows 8.1 driver from lenovo site", and my brightness problem is solved. I am facing the problem with the intel HD graphics 4000 display driver that I install from lenovo site. The driver seems like not fully compatible with windows 10. My screen will turn off after 5 minutes and when I move the mouse to wake it up I face the problem, the screen will freeze for a while and start to wake up and showed me the message "intel display driver.....has stopped responding and has recovered" This happens everytime after my screen turn off. Besides, my pc can't go to sleep mode. When I select sleep for my pc, the screen went black and it takes a long time to sleep but actually it is not, then it will shut down on its own. I have to press the power button to turn it on again. I think this problem is also related to the display driver. I have no problem with this display driver on windows 8.1. Will Lenovo come out the new driver that compatible with windows 10 from Lenovo site? The latest operating system they provide the drivers is untill windows 8.1. If they do not support the windows 10 driver I will roll back to windows 8.1 with no choice but I sincerely hope that I can keep using windows 10 on my pc I like it. Microsoft gives us one month time to roll back to windows 8.1. I don't know can I upgrade to windows 10 again if I found that Lenovo comes out their new drivers

Hi there , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions. I read your post on the HP Support Forums and I understand that you are having an issue with the Touchscreen on your HP Notebook - 15-ac020nr. You had mentioned that since your Windows 10 Upgrade, it no longer works. Have you tried doing all updates (Windows, HP Support Assistant, BIOS)?Have you tried restarting the Notebook a couple of times?Have you tried to run the Windows Troubleshooter? Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating for Windows 10. The HP Support Assistant will also help find a proper driver for you to use. Updated Windows 10 drivers will become available on the HP Drivers and Downloads Page for your product. They will be released as they become available to HP. I did find a troubleshooting document for you called Touch Screen Issues.

Graphic Upgrade Problem with K430 desktop - Unresolved!

Hi,
Xmas 2012 I purchased a Lenovo IdeaCentre K430 Desktop from PC world.
PC World said it would be upgradable if I need to upgrade it.
The system is:
Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
16.0 GB DDR3
1.8 TB Hardrive
Windows 8
Geforce GT 640
I recently purchased Crysis 3 and its not running very well, so I brought a Geforce GTX 660.
However when I installed and rebooted the PC, I was greated with a blank flashing screen?
other people have simular problems on the GeForce forums.
I have since took the card back PLUS 3 MORE for a refund, and very dissapointed that I can't upgrade this PC.
CAN SOMEONE AT LENOVO PLEASE REPLY WITH A LIST OF 'MODERN/LATEST GRAPHIC CARDS, THAT ARE COMPATIBLE WITH THIS MODEL STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX?
CHANGING THE BIOS SETTINGS DOES NOT WORK FOR ME!
It's been almost 2 years and I've still not found a compatible card, so much for the Ultimate Upgradable PC!
Cheers.

The previous message thread you posted in has one recommendation of what worked in the K430. See the post #34 in this discussion.......

IdeaPad S206 Display dark

Hi,
I bought a Lenovo IdeaPad S206 and it worked for like 2-3 months with Windows 8 und Lubuntu 12.10 but since yesterday I got a problem with my display.
The Display stays dark, no matter if plugged in or out, I tried the Fn-Keys and it won't get brighter. (And I'm not talking about a little bit dark like it's dimmed, it's extremly dark like it doesn't shine anymore at all...)
I can barely see anything on it, only if I have light in the background I can see a little bit of it.
The Netbook itself is still working, I can still get into Windows 8 and Lubuntu 12.10 , but I just can't see anything.
Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language.

hi BeepBeep,
Welcome to the forums and sorry to hear about your trouble.
From the issue that you have described, there's a big possibility that either the LCD cable or LCD screen itself (LED type) might have gotten defective and you will need to contact lenovo for service.
If you bought the unit in Germany, see details below on how to go about getting it serviced:
Hope this helps.

Windows 7 upgrade: discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install?

I would like to know whether the Lenovo Windows 7 upgrade discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install? I called Mentor today and was told the answer is no, but I was hoping someone here could tell me differently.
If "no" is truly the answer, I would like to voice my complaint: The upgrade discs from Microsoft (i.e. the retail upgrade discs) include both the 32 and 64-bit versions, so I don't completely understand why Lenovo's upgrade program doesn't offer the same thing. I purchased my T500 in August, and back then Vista Ultimate 64 was not offered, so I chose Vista Ultimate 32 thinking that I could later upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64. This assumption was based off of the info. on Microsoft's website indicating that all upgrades would contain the 32 and 64-bit versions. I even customized my computer with 4 gigs of RAM thinking that I could take advantage of the extra gig once I installed Windows 7 64.
I don't understand what Lenovo or Mentor Media have to gain by restricting a 32 to 64-bit install. I voiced this opinion to Mentor Media over the phone, who responded by saying that I should be happy since I am receiving a "free" upgrade. I don't think this is an accurate assessment for two reasons: (1) I had to pay $17.03 for shipping, and I still haven't received the upgrade and (2) The total cost of my computer was almost $3,000, and the purchase was made a mere few weeks before Windows 7 was released. $3,000 is a lot of money. I waited for the details of the Windows 7 Upgrade Program to be announced BEFORE purchasing my machine. When I finally bought my computer I accounted Windows 7 into the price I was paying. In addition, when I bought this computer I did so expecting good customer service as a given. Not providing a 64-bit upgrade without a rational explanation as to why does not qualify as appropriate customer service.
As most of you know, 4 gigs of RAM is useless with a 32-bit OS. Also, NOW Lenovo is building new T500s with the option of having Windows 7 Ultimate 64 (why wasn't Vista Ultimate 64 offered when I bought my computer???).  And the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 32 is EQUAL to the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 64, which proves that there is no cost difference. I just want to know what Lenovo has to gain by denying customers a 64-bit upgrade? There would really be no additional cost since as I mentioned before, Microsoft's retail upgrade includes the 32 and 64-bit OS on one disc. If anything I would think that it's costing Lenovo money to strip the 64-bit install from the upgrade discs.
Can anyone please address my problems? Do you think there is anyone at Lenovo I could contact to voice my opinions? I have been a loyal Thinkpad customer for over 5 years now, and I expect better from Lenovo. Thank you for reading!
moderator note: core question add to title, as stated in the forum rules and it will help others too answer your questions.

Is there any way to request a 64-bit OEM? Why should Lenovo care whether I want a 32-bit or 64-bit as long as it's the same edition (Ultimate edition)?
if your system shipped with a 32-bit version of vista then you will be sent 32-bit windows 7 upgrade media.   the reason for this is two-fold.
first, because this is upgrade media, it's impossible to install a 64-bit version of windows over a 32-bit version.   doing so would require a clean installation and upgrade media simply won't allow this.   this is the case with retail media, too.   if you had 32-bit vista installed and wanted to upgrade it to 64-bit using retail media, you'd have to wipe your system or set up a dual-boot.
second, the COA (certificate of authenticity) on the bottom of your system is for vista.   because of this, your new license is of an upgrade from vista to 7.   this is how microsoft licenses it and it is their policy, not lenovo's.   microsoft's policy with OEMs is that you must install vista first, then upgrade to 7 (unless, of course, you purchased your system native with 7 on or after the 22nd).   since your original lenovo preload is of a 32-bit OS, the issue becomes circular and you'll have to refer again to the first reason.
i understand your frustration and wish this stuff were made easier for everyone.   it's repetative reading post after post of people with 4GB installed who don't understand the limitations of a 32-bit environment. i wish both manufacturers and users switched to 64-bit OSes sooner. the same thing happened when the industry went from 16-bit windows 3.11 to 32-bit windows NT4/95 and limitations went from 16KB all the way up to 4GB (which, in 1995, no one thought we'd ever exceed).   the difference is that people were complaining on BBSes over 14.4k modems instead of on GUI-based forums using broadband connections.   times sure have changed.

Windows 8 upgrade on Satellite P300 - possible?

I want my P300 upgrade to windows 8. Is this possible, and easy to do ?
Thank you.

Yes, it is possible to install Win 8 but since the Satellite P300 is not a part of the Win8 supported notebook models, you will not find Win 8 drivers.
You will have to search and collect such drivers at your own hand
So this can be a little bit problem but its definitely possible to use Win 8

Windows 8 Upgrade on Netbook

Good day!
I would like to ask how can I upgrade and use Windows 8 properly in my device if my screen resolution is limited upto 1024x600 only. I bought my device last November 2012 and don't want to buy a new device just to experience and use Windows 8 OS.
My Device Name: HP Mini 110-3500
Serial Number:[Personal Information Removed]
Operating System: Windows 7 Starter, 32-bit, and 1GB RAM
Thank you and looking forward for your responses.

Download and run Microsoft's Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant. It is located on this web document.
Have you checked on your netbook's web support portal to see if there are drivers for Windows 8?
I just checked and that answer is a no.
The Upgrade Assitant should help you decide make a informed dicision on what you want to do in relation to your mini and Windows 8.
