Hello all, thanks in advance for your help!
I have a Windows 7 Lenovo T410 with a first gen (I think) i5 and a 300 gb Hitachi hard drive that won't turn on. I have it plugged in (it doesn't charge well, but I think that is the battery being ancient) and when I push the power buttons all the lights blink merrily away, but it only gives me the Lenovo logo screen and then changes to a black screen with the blinking line in the upper left corner (like normal windows 7) but it stays on that screen and won't load Windows.
I got to the BIOS with the blue Lenovo ThinkVantage and ran a diagnostic on the hard drive, it said it would take one minute per gigabyte, and it never got past 0% completed test.
I'm thinking that my hard drive is toast, which isn't that big of a deal, it's backed up, and a new hard drive isn't too expensive, but I really do want to know if that is the real problem before I go buy a new hard drive!
So... how do I tell for sure?
Drivers For Lenovo T410
Also, it did this once to me before, and I got it running after trying again, but I just thought it was out of date drivers. So, if I get it running again, what do I do?
Thanks!
Hey everyone, I'm doing a fresh Windows 7 install on my new SSD on my T430 and Lenovo System Update is stuck on this Intel WLAN Driver. Here's what I did originally:
1.) Initially installed Intel Wireless LAN here via USB drive to get WiFi up and running
2.) Installed Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 so I can then install Lenovo System Update
3.) Saw Intel WLAN Driver again in the System Update, figured why not install if it's the newer version
After I got access to Wifi in Step 1, did I not need to install the Intel WLAN Driver in Step 3? Is it recommended to Cancel? It's been stuck here for 2+ hours (although it did move from halfway to near the end of the bar)?
