Hi all, I just bought  Y500. Why cannot update the driver to 320.18? I already update after purchase, so far ok.

Dear forumers,

I have tried replacing my factory drive with a Vertex 2 SSD but it seems that I needed to boot the notebook thrice before it gets detected to boot into Windows; no idea why.

Since that didn't worked well, I changed into a WD Black with Windows 7 and sometimes my WiFi couldn't detect any networks; forcing me to reboot the notebook multiple times.

Updated latest drivers didn't help either.

Anyway, Y410p user joining the club. Hehehe.

gosh.... time to make y410p user list laugh.gif

Hi all,

i just bought y500 with pre-installed windows 8.  i downgrade to windows 7, installed into miniSSD, since i dont like the windows 8 interface. the problem i get is about the touchpad, that seems like not very sensitive.

anyone got this problem or is there any links or tips to counter this problems?.

and one more things, why can't use nvidia driver 320.18?..

btw, Y500 user reporting.. smile.gif
*
i think i overreacted & overcautioned as someone posted links a few pages back saying that a few ppl over the world reporting that the driver ruined their card tongue.gif

I am wondering whether my Y410p uses mSATA or m.2.....

And I hate the annoying wireless issue where I have to reboot twice for it to be able to detect wireless networks, not sure what's wrong.

Using windows 7 with the pre-shipped drivers though.

don't tell me y410 still using the lousy wifi card doh.gif

driver 320.18 and 314.22 is for card gt650m right?. because my y500 is gt750m, and currently driver version is 311.xx.

QUOTE(ErgoProxi @ Jun 18 2013, 03:54 PM)
for y400(gt750m) need to use which driver?
since u guys said "DON'T UPDATE GEFORCE DRIVER TO 320.18" .

mind giving me DIY on how to change HDD & RAM for Y400?
video prefered.

my y400 is OTW.

Y400 w/o windows 8 is out of stock mad.gif  vmad.gif
had to buy with win8 mad.gif  vmad.gif

p/s: f***ing hate win 8
*
sadly, gt750m have to stick with stock driver since somehow nvidia still haven't release compatible driver...
or try check lenovo website, who knows they have updated custom modified driver

edit: why hate win8... i personally like it whistling.gif whistling.gif

Just want to ask how lenovo warranty works ? online ?

you register your system online, then later when you wanna claim the warranty, the service center just can check the machine detail from their server... i think tongue.gif

There was a over heat issue in the US

Most people complaining about CPU overheat before the GPU does
Now they are re-batching the shipment and all change to 4702QM

No wonder need September then release

Uhh... I just remembered I'm the TS for this thread and this thread is overdue for new version. Sorry but can someone take over from me & make a new thread? Although I'm still using my Lenovo Y series laptop, it currently ends up as test machine and rarely been used lately. oops.gif
New TS can pm me when the new thread is up and I'll lock & redirect it to the new thread. Sorry again for MIA from this thread for 1 year+
