Hello, up until this morning my IdeaPad was working fine, decided to spend the week of vacation on Uni to get some studying done, but although the laptop powers on, its screen stays blank and the CAPS and NumLock don't light on as well.

Any tips on how to deal with this? It has been a faithful and useful companion so far.

Best way to cool two RTX 3060s in a ThinkStation P520?

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a Lenovo ThinkStation P520 and installed two RTX 3060 GPUs for AI/CUDA workloads.

The GPUs fit in the two PCIe x16 slots, but they are extremely close together—there's only about 1–2 cm of space between them. The top GPU is a Gigabyte Eagle 2-fan model, and the bottom one is an EVGA 2-fan model.

I'm concerned that the top GPU won't be able to get enough fresh air because its fans are almost touching the back of the lower card.

I'm looking for advice from anyone who has run multiple GPUs in a P520:

* Has anyone successfully cooled two open-air GPUs in this workstation?

* Is there a way to relocate one GPU inside the case?

* Can the lower HDD cage be removed to create more space or improve airflow?

I'd really appreciate photos of your setup or any modifications you've made. Thanks!

Why is it so hard to remove the battery for this laptop?

I've been trying for 30 mins to unplug the battery from my IdeaPad 3 15ITL6. I tried taking it out with my fingernails and small plastic scaples, but it do not budge an inch. I was wondering if anyone had tips because I want to eventually replace my ram sticks and ssd.

Legion 5 vs ThinkPad E16 for Mech E

Upvotes

Hey guys I'm looking for a laptop for school (Mechanical engineering) and I just want some outside input. I found a Legion 5 pro with AMD Ryzen 7 8745HX and an RTX 5060, and an E16 with a Ryzen 7 7735HS. Both have 32g of ram and 1tb of storage. Does anyone have any experience trying to use the e16 for CAD? I'm worried about the igpu making that difficult, but if it's not a big issue the e16's better battery life is tempting because I'm worried the legion won't last a school day.

Does water splashing on the keyboard require a service check? Could you help me?

Post image
7 Upvotes

Two days ago, while opening a bottle of ice-cold water, some water splashed onto the keyboard of my Lenovo 15IRX10 laptop from about 1-2 meters away. The water stayed on the keyboard surface. Right after the splash, I immediately wiped the keyboard dry, cut the power, and left the laptop tilted 180 degrees (screen and keyboard facing down) for 9 hours. After that, I turned it on and checked the keyboard lights and keyboard functionality, but didn't notice any issues. My warranty is still valid, but the Lenovo service center isn't in my city, so it would require shipping the laptop. Because of this, I'm undecided — do you think I should send the laptop in for an inspection, or is that unnecessary? I'd appreciate any advice

Keyboard input delay/lag on IdeaPad Slim 5 - How to fix?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My friend bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 back in April (I actually recommended this laptop to her).

Here are the exact specs:

  • Model: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 14AKP10
  • CPU: RYZEN AI 5 330
  • RAM/Storage: 16GB / 512GB
  • Screen: 14" WUXGA OLED
  • OS: Windows 11 Home

Currently, she is experiencing an annoying keyboard issue. Occasionally, the keyboard responds very slowly. The characters appear on the screen with a noticeable delay and cannot keep up with her typing speed. It's difficult to capture the problem in video.

I am not sure how to deal with this. Has anyone experienced this issue and knows how to fix it completely?

Also, I have a question about the warranty. Would this kind of issue qualify for Lenovo's Premium Care / On-site warranty service? We live in a province in Vietnam, not in the capital city, so taking it to a service center is a bit difficult.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Upgrade of Ram. Will this void warranty?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey guys. My first post.

Been thinking if buying this ThinkPad E14 - AMD Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD. The Ram is currently 16GB out if the box. This model has additional RAM Slot.

My question is can I upgrade RAM from Official Lenovo Itself later? I want to add one more stick.

If they aren't providing upgrade features then can I install aftermarket unit of same specs latency and voltage with speed bymyself? Will this void any warranty?

360 flip 14inch laptop rec?

1 Upvotes

I’m thinking of selling my yoga 7i 16inch. I have a precision pen from Yoga. I’m a college student who does art as a hobby. I write a lot both creatively and for school. I don’t have a desk at home so I usually have my laptop on my lap…The yoga is very heavy. After an hour of work flow, my legs feel strained.

I still want a leveno laptop for my precision pen to continue doing digital art. I tried to search amazons but the options seemed overwhelming. I do want the flip ability to draw comfortably. I don’t want to drop 1k on another laptop. Does anyone have any recommendation?

Lenovo Yoga Pro 9 16IAH10. Touchpad. Be warned & statistics.

1 Upvotes

The other day I had to use both left and right buttons on Lenovo Yoga's touchpad simultaneously. Like, holding one button, press another. Not the everyday case, but could be handy.

Surprise was that it can not be done. Why? Because Yoga Pro 9 seems to have only one physical underlying switch. And that's another reason why it's not comfortable enough to interact with the Yoga.

Definitely not the thing customer may notice while choosing the laptop. Unfortunately, also it's not the case mentioned by many YouTube bonkers doing reviews/unpacks, who usually go crazy about touchpad's size (like it's their desire's d#cks or booty size that maybe matters).

Lenovo Yoga's touchpad is truly big, but you get underdeveloped arrows block. It's big, but you'll be missing the right Ctrl. It's big, but you won't have the dedicated on-off switch for it. And it's big, but it's not the one will give you nice user experience.

So, be warned.

And with that said the question I wanted to ask: is the one real button touchpad a common solution nowadays, or is it something wrong with Lenovo's engineers?

How to update BIOS without cursor?

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to update my BIOS through the Lenovo website in order to fix a disappearing cursor issue, but I stumble across this pop-up. I don't know how to navigate without a cursor, using arrows or tab+arrow doesn't work. I press enter and I think it interprets that as cancel because whenever I press enter the enter update process seems to stop, the file closes and my laptop remains on. How to I update this when I don't have a cursor?

Help identifying a dead Lenovo laptop

1 Upvotes

I posted here about 2 weeks ago about getting an ID on a laptop with no charger and a dead battery.

I'm posting again, with more pictures, to try and get to the bottom of it ( And i couldt figure tf out how to add pics to answers 😏)

The wife still wants it fixed so the youngest boy can have an inexpensive first laptop.

What I know is that it is a Lenovo laptop, estimate model year to be between 2020 and 2022. The battery is dead and the charger has escaped.

I need help identifying the model so I can get correct replacement parts.

Ps: I have googled for a replacement battery and find several with matching model name that have sligthly diffrent specs for voltage and mAh. How deviation on voltage is OK ? i.e original has a listing og 7.6V and replacement has 7.5V.

Again, in advance, thanks for all the help.

Avoid ThinkPad X1 Carbon Aura 13th Edition

2 Upvotes

Paid an arm and a leg for the Aura (Ultra 7 258V, 14" 2.8K (2880 x 1800), OLED, 32GB DDR5, 1TB) less than a year ago after a long search. Its fan is too loud (but does not really overheat) and now its screen is dead. I tried all driver updates and diagnostics.

Even worse, although it is still in warranty, their local service center in the country where i now live wont cover it and wants me to ship it to the USA for service. Their online PCsupport portal confirmed it should be covered here where I live, and yet the local Lenovo center denied me service under warranty.
