I cracked the screen to my tablet it still turns on and everything, but I want to reset it so that I can bring it to someone to get fixed, so they don't creep my facebook logged in and my pictures. Only problem is the color on my screen is all messed up from the crack so I can't see well enough to reset it from the tablet!
I'm looking for a laptop to play games on, so I figure a simple way of testing the laptops would be to go to a site or program like Can I Run It to see if it can play certain games. The problem with Can I Run it is that it can only test my current laptop and I want to test laptops that I don't have.
I want the site to be able to tell me if a certain laptop can play a certain game, and how well it will run.
Ex. I would be a able to put in Lenovo IdeaPad V570-1066A9U for the laptop and Portal 2 for the game and it would give me the results.
I have a Lenovo z580 laptop and since a few days, I'm getting electric shocks whenever I touch the USB ports or the metal speaker grills. This happens only when the charger is plugged in, and doesn't happen all the time. While on charge, after a few hours of usage I get these shocks. I experienced this just now, I took out the charger plug from my laptop and tested it and found that some sort of current flow was there in it. But, this got solved when I unplugged the charger from the power socket and re-plugged it. Yesterday, I had my camera attached to my laptop and when I tried to pickup the camera, I got shocks from the metal part of the flash hotshoe in my camera. Can anyone tell me is this a problem of the charger or is it because of the power socket? And will this harm my laptop or any device connected to it, for example that camera?
I just got a Lenovo laptop and it is a Windows 10 edition, which is supposed to come with windows 10, but it didn't. I go onto settings, then devices, where I'm told it is supposed to be but the only things listed are printers and scanners, connected devices, mouse and touchpad, typing, and autoplay. Does anyone know how to get Bluetooth?
I have a Lenovo laptop that i was hoping to use for gaming. It has a 2 GB video card, a (weak) 2GHz AMD APU, and 16GB of 1066 RAM. Is it worth upgrading the RAM to 1600? Would it make a noticeable difference in fps while gaming?
Added (1). the CPU will turbo up to 3.2GHz
I own a Lenovo G570-20079. It had been running windows 8.1 before and I upgraded it to windows 10 about a month ago.
Then I played games like DMC and Assassin's Creed Revelations. At first, it worked fine but now it lags like hell.
My laptop runs and starts really fast, but just games have so much frame drops even at lower resolution and lowest graphic settings. Hell, it worked before 2 months and even at first after installing windows 10.
Could you guys suggest a remedy for this? I find it really annoying that a game that worked perfectly before has issues right now.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. It has 4 gigs of RAM running on i5-2320M clocked at 2.4GHz. It has a dedicated Intel HD Graphics 3000.
Hi, today I realized that my Lenovo y410p requires a 6.5a 19.5v charger, but i've been using a 3.25a 20v charger. I bought the laptop from a friend who lost the original charger. When I first started using the laptop the charger would sometimes go off and stop charging the laptop for a few seconds but later on it didn't have this issue so I thought everything is fine. But over the past 4 month (2 months after I bought the laptop) my gpu constantly fails and crashes during intense gaming with the message "nvidia graphics driver has stopped responding".
I've tried cleaning out the laptop and replacing thermal paste but no luck and now I've realized I've been using the wrong charger, could this have messed up my gpu? And will replacing with the correct charger help the situation?
Some Specs
Lenovo y410p
intel i74700mq cpu @2.4ghz
1tb hdd, 120gb ssd
Thanks in advance.
Added (1). My gpu temps are hi (68c-78c when gaming) but not so much that it should be causing me this much trouble.
So I need a new laptop. My current one is 4.5 years old and pretty broken and will prob die any day. My current one is a 15 inch Sony Vaio.
Here's its Specs:
i5-2410M processor (2.30GHz) with Turbo Boost up to 2.90GHz
6GB
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator HD with Intel® Wireless Display technology
640GB (5400rpm) hard drive
I almost never had issues with my computer. My main problem has been battery life. However, I've seen my screen compared with some friends screens and I want better graphics for sure.
I bought my old computer when I thought I was gonna need to do a lot of video editing, but now I'm an English major, so I'm pretty sure some of those upgrades were a waste. I'm a student so I use my computer a lot and need to take it with me. I don't own a TV and I watch a ton of shows and youtube and netflix and stuff, so I definitely want something where I won't have issues there. I do some minor photoshop work, but nothing on a professional level.
Just looking for the best computer and something that will hopefully increase my experience and definitely not decrease it.
Currently, for financial reasons, I'm torn between a 13inch Macbook (probably Pro, maybe Air) or a 15 inch PC (leaning towards Lenovo).
I just can't decide if I can go to that much of a smaller computer and if I can deal with that screen size.
However, I hear a lot of good things about Macs and its really appealing to get that computer.
Any words of wisdom/advice? Things to consider?
I've tried the take the battery out and hold for 30 seconds blah blah it won't work! I have a Lenovo G50 and the story goes that it got confiscated from me because I used it too much and it was put under this cabinet and there was a lot of dust there. So I opened it up unaware and turned it on and began using it but it was extremely slow and had very little battery so I put it on charge and after a while of me eating for google chrome to load the laptop just went blank. It didn't even show the shut down page it just turned off and all lights were off and I've even tried vacuuming dust out and getting everything out and it's still not working at all and I've had it for 1 year? Any suggestions on what may be wrong and how I can fix it? Do I need to go to a tech guy or something?
Added (1). Eating? I mean ****waiting
Okay, so I use Libre office alot and I used to be able to open it up (like a couple days ago) but now all of a sudden it just doesn't work anymore, I would try to open up a document it would show the circle like it was trying to bring it up but it doesn't. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it and still nothing. I'm using the latest version of the application and windows 10 lenovo laptop!
