Chapter 7. Troubleshooting computer problems This chapter provides information about what to do if you experience a problem with your computer. General tips for preventing problems This topic provides the following tips to help you prevent computing problems: • Empty your recycle bin on a regular basis. • Use a disk defragment tool regularly on your storage drive to improve data seek and read times. • To free up disk space, uninstall unused programs.
Notes: • If you are using another Windows operating system rather than the Windows 7, you can find the latest information about diagnostics for your computer at: http://www.lenovo.com/diagnose • If you are unable to isolate and repair the problem yourself after running Lenovo Solution Center, save and print the log files created by the program. You need the log files when you speak to a Lenovo technical support representative. Lenovo Solution Center enables you to troubleshoot and resolve computer problems.
Solution: Do the following: 1. Press and hold the power button for four seconds or more to turn off the computer. • If the computer is turned off, restart the computer by pressing the power button. If the computer does not turn on, continue with step 2. • If you cannot turn off your computer by pressing and holding the power button, remove all sources of power from the computer and reset the system by inserting a straightened paper clip into the emergency-reset hole.
Solution: The EEPROM checksum is not correct (block # 0 and 1). The system board should be replaced, and the box serial number must be reinstalled. Have the computer serviced. • Message: 0189: Invalid RFID configuration information area Solution: The EEPROM checksum is not correct (block # 4 and 5). The system board should be replaced, and the universally unique identifier (UUID) must be reinstalled. Have the computer serviced.
Solution: The thermal sensor has a problem. Shut down the computer immediately and have the computer serviced. • Message: Error: The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is nearly full. Note: This error indicates that the operating system or programs cannot create, modify, or delete data in the non-volatile system UEFI variable storage due to insufficient storage space after POST. The non-volatile system UEFI variable storage is used by the UEFI BIOS and by the operating system or programs.
Error codes 0001: Reset error (platform reset not de-asserted) Solutions 1. Remove all power resources (the ac power adapter, removable battery, and coin-cell battery). If your computer has a built-in battery, reset the computer by inserting a straightened paper clip into the emergency-reset hole. Wait for one minute. Then reconnect all power resources. 2. Replace the system board (service provider only). 0002: Internal bus error Replace the system board (service provider only).
Solution: Ensure that: – The cable is installed correctly. The network cable must be securely connected both to the Ethernet connector of your computer and to the RJ45 connector of the hub. The maximum allowable distance from the computer to hub is 100 m (328 ft). If the cable is connected and the distance is within the acceptable limits but the problem persists, try a different cable. – You are using the correct device driver. To install the correct driver, do the following: 1.
• The Airplane mode is off. • Your wireless-LAN driver is the latest version. • Your computer is within the range of a wireless access point. • The wireless radio is enabled. Note: If you are using the Windows 7 operating system, click Show hidden icons on the taskbar. The Access Connections icon is displayed. For more information about the icon, see the Access Connections help information system. For the Windows 7 operating system, check the network name (SSID) and your encryption information.

Note: If your computer cannot detect the external monitor, click Detect in the Display window. 2. Select the external monitor and set Resolution. 3.
3. See the manual shipped with the external monitor to check the resolutions and refresh rates that are supported. – If the external monitor supports the same resolution as the computer display or a higher resolution, view output on the external monitor or on both the external monitor and the computer display. – If the external monitor supports a lower resolution than the computer display, view output on the external monitor only.
Solution: Sometimes, when you use a high resolution such as 1600 x 1200 pixels, the image is shifted to the left or right on the screen. To correct this, first ensure that your external monitor supports the display mode (the resolution and the refresh rate) that you have set. If it does not, set a display mode that the monitor supports. If it does support the display mode you have set, go to the setup menu for the monitor itself and adjust the settings there.
• Problem: When I connect headphones to my computer while playing sound, a speaker does not produce sound. Solution: When the headphones are attached, the streaming is automatically redirected to it. If you want to listen to sound from the speakers again, ensure that you set those speakers as the default device. For more information, see the help information system for Realtek HD Audio Manager. • Problem: Sound does not come from a headphone or a speaker, or the computer cannot record sounds.
Solution: Discharge and recharge the battery. • Problem: The operating time for a fully charged battery is short. Solution: Discharge and recharge the battery. If your battery operating time is still short, use a new battery. • Problem: The computer does not operate with a fully charged battery. Solution: The surge protector in the battery might be active. Turn off the computer for one minute to reset the protector; then turn on the computer again. • Problem: The battery cannot get charged.
Power button problem Problem: The system does not respond, and I cannot turn off the computer. Solution: Turn off the computer by pressing and holding the power button for four seconds or more. If the system still does not respond, remove the ac power adapter and reset the system by inserting one end of a needle or a straightened paper clip into the emergency-reset hole. To locate the emergency-reset hole, see “Bottom view” on page 5.
– If the system status indicator is off, your computer has no power or is in hibernation mode. Connect the ac power adapter to the computer; then press the power button to resume operation. If the system still does not resume from sleep mode, your system might stop responding and you might not be able to turn off the computer. In this case, you must reset the computer. If you have not saved your data, it might be lost. To reset the computer, press and hold the power button for four seconds or more.
Check the following: • The program is designed to operate with your operating system. • Other programs run properly on your computer. • The necessary device drivers are installed. • The program works when it is run on some other computer.
