y500 sli with win 8 64 bit... do not update to 8.1 it will fcukup all the sli , scaling, login, bios... wtf windows...

Yeah. Only the SLi for me.

The scaling can adjust back. Control panel > Display > Tick "Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays" > Medium.
Bios? Just boot to bios and activate, something bout UEFI. Forgot already.

i played bf3 1080p before but didnt notice any flickering... but because i don't like the framerate i change to 720p immediately...

92c won't permadamage your gpu. I've reached 100c before, still raring to go.

1st time buying gaming notebook..worry about the temps =(

When the laptop begins to flicker black in black out it usually tells the sign of overheating is it ?

f***!!! after a long time didn't use back my original factory win7 HDD, now can't run d !!! f***, i am in australia, how to warranty claim now?!?!

Good day!
New Y510P owner here....

Just wondering which graphic driver (version) you guys using for your y500 after 8.1 update?

mine is y400.. my currently driver is 331.58 version

Hello there guys. I am using Lenovo IdeaPad Y480. So let me get directly into the topic. It all started few days back when i booted the laptop from hibernation. The problem I am facing now is that there is sort of a vertical line at the bottom part of the screen, it changes colours sometime from red to green. Another problem is the graphic card which is Nvidia 650M is not detected anymore. It is only read as Standard VGA Adaptor in the device manager other than the Intel HD Onboard graphics. I tried uninstalling the Nvidia drivers and reinstalling it back but to no avail. The installation will fail and it is as if there is no more working graphic card in the laptop unless the onboard ones. So am i dealing with a faulty graphic card guys? I tried booting the laptop in other screen and there was no vertical line on there, only on the laptop screen. Help me to clarify this problem guys. If it is a graphic card problem. What is the best I can do to solve it?Thanks

are you running SLI?

last night my gpu temp reach new high at 94c. wonder how long it will take for the gpu to fry?

What model, i also having this issue =O , Y410p here

Anybody can help me here? I'm having a weak signal with my laptop.



As you can see from the image above, both laptop are located side by side. And my wife's lapotp is having better signal than my Y480!

My spec is :

Windows 8
Qualcom Atheros AR9285
Driver Date : 3/7/2012
Driver Version : 3.0.0.130


And from website http://support.lenovo.com/en_MY/downloads/...selector=expand

1. Intel WiMax Driver (Intel 6150NX) for Microsoft Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
2. Intel Wireless LAN Driver for Microsoft Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
3. Wireless LAN Driver (CyberTan/Broadcom, Liteon/Atheros) for Microsoft Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)

There's 3 files. And which one should i choose if i want to update the driver? Kinda confuse abit..
Help me! Thanks.

nop

3rd one.. i updated mine with the driver too

Wireless LAN Driver (CyberTan/Broadcom, Liteon/Atheros) for Microsoft Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
this, BTW I hope we can change to Intel Wi-Fi card...lol
the poor signal is due to the antenna I think, we got only two if compare to other laptop which got three
and also atheros wi-fi card is not so good la....

aih..that's so sad. can't even play in my room like this.. zz
