Have you installed the driver?
You can still use it in Win8 but there will no on screen notification when you switch between modes each time.

3 fingers swipe and 4 fingers swipe. You can disable them in touchpad settings.
one touch recovery > reset to factory settings

OR

insert windows installation disc > reformat hdd > install windows

I'm dead worried about the temperature now... idling 52'C, playing 720p vid can reach 70'C... I think something is wrong with the CPU heat transfer  sweat.gif

No installation disc wor.

Preloaded with Win 7HB. Reset?

The guys in Lowyat is really pushing y580 yesterday when I went. with a blueray drive asking rm3400++. At that price I would rather get the y500. Just wondering if there is any msata ports in the y500 and if yes can we use it when buying local set? Original reboot times are not very attractive so it either msata or change to SSD.

Did you check SriComputer? Seems that is all they have y580 with blueray drive. Quite pointless cause I've not use a disc (cd/dvd/blueray etc) with a computer for the past few years.

I went to Lenovo Exclusive Shop in Digital Mall after the bugger said got the Blu-Ray

Went there, said OOS. vmad.gif

You need to email to Lenovo, together with the receipt for verification.

They will call your dealer to verify.
