My Lenovo IdeaPad G560 turns on, but has only black screen, what should I do?

here it is, youtube, 1pm seen here, see blue coded soldered down ML1220 coin cell your CMOS NVRAM battery is there. https://youtu.be/z1EjNOEy6Do?t=268 just above CPU brace left top screw. BI NGO this one model, of may submodels. the life span is 5 years, but never parked for 7y ever. parking it allows it to go OVER discharged, and now dead faster. if not there you are in a different country.

How to fix errror code 0x0000034 with cd on my lenovo ideapad

https://windowsreport.com/error-code-0xc0000034-windows-10/ Error may be caused by a variety of conditions. Above link offers three possible fixes; Automatic repair, Manual repair, or Refresh. I have not had much luck even accessing the manual repair commands. Although one of the above may be the ultimate solution, here is something to try first. Try CMD in Run box, choose run as administrator, enter sfc /scannow If this fails to fix, generating a "cannot fix" message, go to SAFE MODE and attempt to run the command from there. If a disk error problem, something like even the free version of Advanced System Care might fix that. I found the scan and fix module of the commercial Pegasun System Utilities very helpful. Running a fix is not likely to be quick but they can work. I won't go into DISM here least your head start spinning. One of the above may prevail.

My 3000 N200 does not go past the screen displaying the lenovo/intel/energy star logo. pressed the care button and followd prompts already. anything else I can do?

lenovo screen is BIOS POST (power on self tests) failing. it means hardware failure, 99% or 1% HDD OS is corrupted. all PCs do this at 5 years (par) PCs fail for 2 reasons, batteries bad, or HDD bad. 2 things wash wear repeat, made 2007. 15 years old today, and ran for 15 years and failed just now. or stored for ages and today out of dusty box it fails. sure and sure. regardless, if not serviced, this PC came in screen sizes, not told by you and here is the waring in the manual of your PC. i your computer is one of 15.4-inch display models, charge the cmos clock battery for more than 8 hours by connecting the ac adapter and run bios setup utility t reconfigure the system. (SOLDER DOWN BATTERY) THIS MEANS I ASSUME, THAT SMALLER SCREEN MODEL 14.1-inch screen model? "SAYS SIMPLY REPLACE IT" USES NORMAL COIN CELL. BUT THAT DOES NOT MATTER AT ALL AS ETHER KIND ARE NO GOOD AT 15 YEARS OLD EVER. ERROR CODE 0250? FROM BIOS IS COIN DEAD. The cmos coin cell battery must be replaced, if this old. the coin or the solder down model 15.4" the PC must run on AC power, no HUGE battery instelled and 15.4": model the coin is rechargeable and soldered down. the manual tells you shop service needed for the 15.4" model the 14" is easy fix. if handy with a screw driver. here is the 14" solder down ML1220 battery SD, n200 real., see the blue rim (bingo soldered down) sdn200-undefined-undefined-0.jpg

Password bios lenovo y510

To reset the BIOS password read the information from this link.

In case of your Lenovo laptop the easiest method would be using software from Hiren's Boot CD as it's pretty hard to open it up and reach for the CMOS battery or the jumper and I wouldn't recommend doing it especially if it's under warranty.

I bought a new Lenovo pc with Window Vista.

If its windows media player that isn't playing the dvd's then you'll need to go here and get the latest version of windows media player and also get the latest codecs.

If you have a different dvd player that came with your laptop, then use the other dvd software and see if you can play your dvd that way.

Lenovo n500 forgot bios password

Hello, If you forgot your BIOS password,do not worry, you can reset your system back without requesting a BIOS password,Simply unscrew your laptop and get the motherboard of your laptop, locate the CMOS battery on the motherboard and remove for sometime for the battery to discharge say 4-10minutes,or better still if you can locate the jumpers for the BIOS and reset it,the BIOS password will be removed.It is the battery that keeps the BIOS chip alive by suppling it power,if power is not supplied to this chip,then the information on it will be lost. So, remove the battery for some minutes or reset your BIOS jumper on the motherboard WISH YOU THE BEST.
