Guys, anyone having problem with shutting down or restarting?
It'll shutdown as normal, screen dim, then hangs there while the power button still lighted. Using Windows 8.1. |

QUOTE(slimfox @ Feb 9 2014, 07:19 PM) You better do a full scan for malware on your computer. I just recovered from a bootkit/rootkit virus. The symptoms for mine was the same. Really long shutdown. I only discovered the malware through Comoro Killswitch (unknown process). What did u use to scan? Which software? If it isn't malware then update all the 8.1 drivers from Lenovo's website. When i shutdown, it'll turn off the screen but the fan & keyboard light is still on. Only when i insert or remove any usb plug, then it'll totally shutdown. Kinda weird. I updated all drivers already, tried most of the solution except scanning for malware. |

QUOTE(slimfox @ Feb 10 2014, 10:09 AM) Easiest way is for you to go download Comodo Cleaning Essentials. Then run killswitch. See how many unknown process you have running. If things like chrome or firefox or explorer is unknown, then there is a good chance that you have an infection. Scan with a virus scanner like stinger and spybot. I see. Will try later on. I'm using norton Internet security btw, showed clean everytime i scan. Ya my computer was also like yours, screen off and fan and keyboard light is on. sometimes it takes more than 10mins to go all off. After getting rid of the malware now after all window and driver updates it shutdown in a few seconds and starts in less than 1min (using msata). This problem started only after i update to Windows 8.1. Btw, anyone know if it's worth it to change to WD Black 2 (which have 120GB SSD + 1TB HDD inside), from Plextor M5P 256GB? I'm having problem with space now. |

QUOTE(cosmiqeddie @ Feb 12 2014, 12:59 AM) For everyone using windows 8.1, my personal suggestion is to down grade to win8.0, the driver for 8.1 is not stable, while 8.0 smooth like butter. The only problem i have with 8.1 is this shutdown/restart. Im using y410p with samsung ssd120gb + 1tb hdd. So far so good, wifi also perfect. How to downgrade to Win 8? |

QUOTE(UserU @ Feb 12 2014, 11:12 PM) Mine's the total opposite. No more problems after upgrading to 8.1 Apparently it's not the Win 8.1 problem. Lenovo called me, to check my laptop with Lenovo Solution Centre. My PCI Express failed the checking test, so they advised me to send to serv ctr to repair. QUOTE(guohaolee @ Feb 14 2014, 05:56 PM) can you teach me how to transfer the whole OS to the SSD? I used Paragon Migrate to SSD software. |

Anyone know how to downgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 7?
I read somewhere that the Win8 key is embedded in the bios. So need to do extra steps to install Win7. |

QUOTE(mrl @ Mar 6 2014, 02:17 PM) as far as I can recall you just need to do clean installation, no? I did that before, but couldn't validate Win7 cause the "key" is different. Meaning they only refer to the key in the bios.I've had enough with Windows 8. Too much problems. |

QUOTE(mrl @ Mar 6 2014, 05:24 PM) I dont even know why Win7 wants to see the key in BIOS to activate when it doesn't even know there's a key in the BIOS... Secure boot? Oh. Yeah. The last time i tried to downgrade, that secure boot is enabled.but still, i doesnt work... must mean something... did you try call Microsoft Customer Service for that? Also, have you tried disable the Secure Boot/*whatever thing called in the BIOS related to Win8 function*. Seriously, they need to standardize the name already... I'll try again with it disabled. |

Guys,
Is it a must to use 2 GPUs? I'm planning to swap the 2nd GPU with HDD bay. I sometimes use external monitor. Does it effect the performance? And anyone know where i can buy HDD Ultrabay? Using Y500 btw. |
