Windows updates for Lenovo? what is it?

Hi,
I have just found some Windows updates in the section "Drivers and Software" for x230.
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/research/hints-or-tips/detail.page?&DocID=HT073834
section: Windows Update
for example
Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) Update Module KB2482122
Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) Update Module KB2615763
I have checked in my windows 7 Installed Updates - I do not have these updates installed.
My WIndows is reporting that it UP TO DATE.
So, what do mean these updates? Should they be installed?

Hello,
These are hotfixes for the operating system released by Microsoft. Not every hotfix released by Microsoft is distributed through Microsoft Update. Sometimes, it is an issue which only affects a small fraction of computers out there, an issue may only occur in rare circumstances, and so forth. Here are the actual articles from Microsoft's support site:
Microsoft Knowledgebase Article #2482122, "0x0000009F" Stop error when you restart a Windows 7-based or Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer ...
Microsoft Knowledgebase Article #/2615763, "0x000000D1" Stop error when you connect a USB composite device to a computer that is running Window...
From reading their descriptions, plus the fact that you saw them listed on Lenovo's web site, makes me think that your model's installation of Microsoft Windows may be susceptible to the described problems.
You can try downloading the files and installing them. If a problem occurs, you can uninstall the hotfix, or use System Restore to revert the computer to an earlier state before the hotfixes were installed.

BIOS Update for Lenovo N200 3000 0769-ASU

Hello,
I want to upgrade my hard drive but I must upgrade my BIOS, but I cannot find a BIOS Update for Lenovo N200 3000 0769-ASU with Windows 7, any help or assistance is appreciated.

Sorry for replying to an old post but I found one of theese laptops a couple of days ago where I work. (I work at a recycle station/place/something)
I decided that I wanted to try and fix it since it suffers from the issue discussed here.
I have about 15 yrs experiance with fixing computers and about 3 years with laptops and my repair succes rate is rather high.
But this laptop is a piece of very bad and **bleep**ty workmanship - The whole upper part of the mainboard is toast - the part that is just under the connection to the batteri is badly burned.
I will upload some pictures shortly, and give a detailed workaround if I get it fixed
cheers

Disable USB driver installation from searching Windows Updates for software

Hello,
When a plug-n-play device is connected to a Windows 7 system, the system by default tries to search Windows update for compatible drivers. I have a preconfigured driver store on each system that will have the drivers for all of the USB devices we care
about so I'd like to search the local driver store first before searching for Windows updates.
I found the option that controls this under System Properties > Advanced system settings > Hardware tab > Device Installation Settings. I have set this option before my machines run through sysprep, however, sysprep appears to be resetting
the option back to the Windows default (Yes, do this automatically) and ignores what I set it to.
I have a reg key that I'm running post-sysprep, but I'd like to avoid this as it's an extra step and I don't want to have to account for it long-term. My question is, is there a way to set this option in my sysprep unattend file?

If this is a domain joined machine, this can be set by a Group Policy Object;
Open Group Policy Management Editor.
In the navigation pane, open Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Internet Communication Management\Internet
Communication settings.
In the details pane, double-click Turn off Windows Update device driver searching.
Do one of the following:
To turn off searching Windows Update, click Enabled.
To allow searching Windows Update, click Disabled.
Click OK to save your settings.
Instructions taken from: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730606(v=ws.10).aspx
If this PC is not on the domain (but is Pro) you may be able to set the same option on the Local Group Policy (GPEDIT.MSC).
Kind Regards

Updates for Lenovo S820

Hello Team, Currently my phone is having Andorid 4.2.1 I would like to know whether Is there any chance to get the update for Lenovo S820 to 4.2.2 and Android Kitkat. ThanksBhushan

I have the same query of Lenovo S820 phone. After purchase there's only the system update but not OS update. Many are asking in this forum about upgrading their phones to Android 4.3 or kitkat but there no assurance positive feedbacks. Still, others are saying that only the Lenovo high end phones will receive the Os updates.I have found this reference inorder for your phone to be updates to v. 4.2.2 but you need to flash your phone and i think needs some rooting for this to work:http://www.needrom.com/mobile/lenovo-s820-vibe/At first, i got worried about my phone not getting the latest Android OS update:http://www.howtogeek.com/129273/why-your-android-phone-isnt-getting-operating-system-updates-and-what-you-can-do-about-it/So others decided to flash other OS through their phones like Cyanogenmod. I haven't found anything that has been ported to Lenovo S820 with any version of CM yet. I have been satisfied with this article:http://www.howtogeek.com/179638/not-getting-android-os-updates-heres-how-google-is-updating-your-device-anyway/I may not have my phone updated to the latest Android update or I can wait for it, at least google is trying to make ways of improving the phone, not the carriers or even the ones who created these phones.

Print Management Console displays no printers after applying Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388)

After installing optional Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388) on a print server upgraded from Windows 2012 to Windows 2012 R2, the Print Management Console wouldn't display locally shared or remotely shared printers. Another print server

Hi there,
Sorry you are having problems installing the KB from Microsoft.

Problem getting windows updates for windows 7

hi,
I am using windows 7 beta version. I have problem getting windows updates for my windows 7. When i click on check updates error code 80072F8f occurs. The same goes to any windows application like Live Mail, Live Messanger and i can't even activate my windows 7. But i can use IE8 and other external applications like Yahoo Messanger and my Avast antivirus can even update itself. Just that windows application can't connect to internet for updates. Help me please.
Thank You.

On January 13, Microsoft ends support for the Windows 7 Service Pack (SP) 1. No need to panic. That does not mean your computer with Windows 7 is going to automatically break or stop working. Though the
Extended Support for Microsoft product with free security update is not ending until Jan 14, 2020 comes.

Got Display driver via Windows Update for Windows 8.1 and try to use it for Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi Everyone,
the following driver cab is from Windows Update:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=5be01620eea95d8c&id=5BE01620EEA95D8C!138&ithint=file,.cab&authkey=!APDi54-R1Ob5IWQ
It includes this display driver:
Intel(R) Q45/Q43 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
My problem is: I can't install this driver on Windows Server 2012 R2.
I tried the following, nothing worked:
a) pnputil -i -a intel.cab
b) Extract cab, update the device's driver in device manager, select "search for driver software in this location"
c) copy the files in system32/, system32/drivers, syswow64/ from a Windows 8.1 system to a Windows Server 2012 R2 system
Isn't it true that any Windows 8.1 driver should also work for Windows Server 2012 R2 (same os version)?
Thanks for your replies.
PS: I first posted my question here:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-hardware/got-display-driver-via-windows-update-for-windows/31c287c8-ef84-4c81-8530-8c51412376b7

Windows Update breaks Lenovo Miix 2 Sensors, system refresh unavoidable

Hi everyone,
Been playing with the Lenovo Miix 2 for a few days now, and I have been experiencing some annoying issues.
I've done about 3x System refresh so far and on my 4th as I'm typing this...
I don't know the exact root of the problem, but I do know that one of the windows update is breaking the sensors causing it to malfunction and breaking some functionalities.
Accelorometer doesn't work at boot, need to disable and re-enable the sensor in device manager.
Trying to use the search or PC settings functionality in Metro UI freezes the tablet.
With each refresh, I've made sure that no driver updates are selected, but that didn't seem to help.
And the most annoying part is refreshing the tablet takes forever... (2-3 hrs)
If anyone knows has the same problem or any insight on what is causing this? please share your knowledge
Solved!
Go to Solution.

After some research, I found a thread on the German Lenovo support forum, having problems when installing the following updates:
Update Windows 8.1 (KB2887595)
Update Windwos 8.1 (KB2903939)
Update Windows 8.1 (KB2913320)
Source:
miix 2 probleme mit sd card
I havn't done any of the updates for windows, afraid that it will screw up again.

Install optional driver updates from Windows Update for IdeaPad Yoga 13?

Windows Update on IdeaPad Yoga 13 - Windows 8.1 (64-bit) suggests two optional updates:
Conexant - Audio Device - Conexant SmartAudio HD
10.01.2014
Intel Corporation - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 - Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 software update released in May, 2014
04.06.2014
Should I install those updates or should I keep the original drivers?
The original drivers from Lenovo "Drivers and software" section (http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032590) seem to be older/outdated:
Conexant Audio Driver for 64-bit Windows
8.65.3.53 10/22/2013
Integrated Graphics Driver for 64-bit Windows
Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
9.17.10.2843 10/23/2012
Intel Video Driver for 64-bit Windows
10.18.10.3282 10/22/2013

Windows Update has now another update for "Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1" and still no updates on the Lenovo site.
So I tried the the drivers from Windows Update and it seems that every thing is still working fine.

Windows Updates for SharePoint 2013 Environment

Hi
I created a visual machine for SharePoint 2013 development by following steps mentioned below.
--Install Winows Server 2008 R2
--SQL Server 2008 R2
--SP2 for SQL Server 2008 R2
--SP1 for Winows Server 2008 R2
--Sharepoint 2013 Pre-Requisites
--Sharepoint 2013 Setup
--Sharepoint 2013 Designer
--Installed March and August 2013 Cumulative Updates for SharePoint 2013
--Installed SP1 for SharePoint 2013
I want to ask do i need to install Windows Updates after installing different updates as i mentioned above because everty now and then windows updates message keep pops up and i did'nt install windows updates yet.
Why is it necessary or what impact window updates would have on my environment if i need to do it??

Windows Updates cover security updates as well as stability improvements, and so on. You're simply patching SharePoint and SQL in the above case.
It should be noted that any SharePoint patches that come down through Windows Update need to be manually handled as you'll need to run the Config Wizard (e.g. MS14-022 and MS14-050 which are SharePoint updates).
When you're installing SharePoint 2013, you only need to install SP1 if that is your target. There is no requirement to install March 2013 or August 2013.

Enable Microsoft Update (not just Windows Update) for Windows 2008 R2

I am running Windows 2008 R2 in my Citrix XenApp 6.5 farm.
Office 2013 is installed.
I can't update Office via Windows Update. Why? Take a look at this ridiculous roundabout tautology it takes me through.
Here I am in the Windows Update panel:
If I click "Find out more" to get updates for other Microsoft Updates it takes me here:
Yeah, duh, I was just in there when I clicked the link to get to this site. What's the deal?
How does one enable all Microsoft Updates for a Windows 2008 server. I can do this in 2003 easily by going to the Microsoft Update website. 2008 however, this appears to be impossible and apparently no one else in the world has noticed this.

these discussions should help:

How to run Windows update for Win XP SP3 using Firefox

My desktop PC is running windows XP with SP3. My spouse uses IE 8 for her browser. I use Firefox Version 24. for my browser. Previously, whenever we ran MS or Windows update it starts IE and runs fine. IE 8 has blown up and no longer works (Runtime Errors). I tried to go to the Windows update website using Firefox and it came back and told me that I had to use IE to run Win update on an XP system. Is this true? I don't want to use IE at all. Is there a way to use Firefox to run Windows or MS update on my Win XP system? Thank you.

Thanks for your help. That is not what I wanted to hear so I will have to try to get IE 8 working again. How do other folks do updates? Does this mean that IE is absolutely necessary to maintain your windows system? Is this true for the newer versions of Windows, 7 or 8?

SOLVED !!! Take a look at the following :- http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Software-Drivers/Error-0x8024200b/td-p/5176900 Didn't work varbatim but put Me on the right track. Here what I did. From Settings, search for "Device Manager". Under Printers I had 2 "Unidentified Printers". I Right Clicked & uninstalled both. Run Windows Update again & failed update had gone, however I was unable to print anymore. Back to Settings Initial Window & select Devices, then Printers & Scanners. I removed all entries for HP Printers, Fax etc. I then selected "Add a printer or scanner" from the top of the Printers & Scanners Menu. It searched & found My Officejet Pro 6830. I then double clicked the HP Officejet Pro 6830 Icon on My Desktop & it installed the Printer again. All now working & no more failed Windows Updates :-)
