everyone!!

ok, my bro bought the y480 freeDOS version(obviously for the gt650 sg ddr5 ) but now we install own windows, but cant make onekey recovery!!


any of you guys got solution for this?
thx

Format d?

i don't think u can make one key recovery for free dos version even after u've installed ur own copy of windows.

Get the disc from other owner?

I just recover factory default on my extra HDD. Home premium, it better than my ultimate version.....

oh man, so I guess not possible?
then y the heck they even bother to give the software on the disc. iinm, those that come with windows no driver disc right? since the softwares are on D partirion? damn, I not yet even seee the D partirion, and he go uni ready, dunno when gonna see him next time... oh well, what to do, so I guess there will be a "dummy" button beside the on button forever~

Can turn on, ok la.

yeah, just a lil pissed off that just becoause freeDOS even another lenovo software gets affected.....haizzz...wat eva la....

I thought it din come with CD driver???

Y480 with freedos should come with driver CD according to bashlyner as quoted below.

i think i saw someone posted that the 1st thing you do when you boot up with freedos version is go to the recovery thingy otherwise you may not be able to gain access to it unless somebody come up with a way to hack it...not sure where i see it tho...but definitely in lyn..

just got my Y480.can't find my software disc? yes i've tried flipping the box upside down.

Go download from lenovo website ba...

I don't think the website drivers are exactly the same. I downloaded all the Y480 drivers for a total of 1.2GB but the Lenovo driver CD has more than 3.5GB on it.

If anyone dun have the driver CD better get a new one from the seller quick.

Anyone having problems with games or nvidia drivers? Battlefield3 seem to have problems with fullscreen, witcher 2 can't get past the loading screen, deux ex will freezea few seconds when i face a new direction/new area, etcetra. Not terribly nice mobile gaming experience so far.. think I regret ditching my desktop already.

Wonder if anyone wanna start a gaming forum for Y480/580?

Found it actually Just installed all the drivers,power of the SSD kicking in.this laptop is awsm!

Is the 3 buttons (one-key rescue,one-key theatre,volume) working properly?
Are u swapping SSD with HDD & HDD with DVD?

Did you found the disc or download from lenovo website?

Haven't figured out about the One-key rescue and one-key theatre but the mute button is working.
SSD with HDD
Found the disc
