Seems like a faulty MOBO.Bu start problems can be a lot of other problems like a faulty RAM or VGA.I need more ifo like your OS and any that can help.

The same model Lenovocan have different types of network, video and audio drivers and unless youknow exactly which one is installed in your Lenovo, you need to download allthe drivers and install each driver until you find the right driver. When you download thedrivers, write down the device driver and it's file name so you have a recordof which driver you are installing and which directory the unzipped files arelocated on your hard drive.Go to the IBM/Lenovo WEBsite - support/download page and download the latest Windows device drivers foryour model computer, Use this link: - http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/product.do?template=%2Fproductselection%2Flandingpages%2FbrowseByProductLandingPage.vm&sitestyle=lenovo&brandind=10&validate=true

i would say its the batterie, try to put the batterie out just connect it with the cable, in have that to i actually let it connetd even i know its not good for the computer the bad batteries make your pad for sure not better so watch out

again try it without batterie it must be the batterie try only with the cable direct if its than still than you know it something with your pad which i dont think

try to connect it to an external monitor or a tv that got vga input, if will work on it is a display problem

if not, try to take out the back cover and remove RAM memory, replace whit one that u know it work(same fsb or smaller)

if not work to try to reset bios(removing bios battery)

are more things that u can try, but are morecoplicated and are risks in them so i just put the simple tests that u can make

best regards

You have located the BIOS battery (it is wrapped in heat shrink tubing) and it connects to the motherboard with a lead/connector from the battery.

Hi and welcome to Fixya!

The possibilities of having it return to you will soar if you follow the following steps:

1. Call warranty support thru this number - 1 877 453 6686
2. Report that the machine is stolen. If you could provide the serial number, it will be great.
3. If another person will call for any warranty or technical support for the reported machine, warranty support can notify you and report the caller to the police at the same time.

Hope this helps!

There is only one site for drivers and that is the manufacturer.

Need driver and bios updates?

Always get your drivers and specific software from the manufacturer of your Laptop, Notebook or Desktop. They are usually free of charge.

If you were to log on to the www.ibm.com web site, usually one is able to download if available, by model number, All available Driver downloads as required.

If the driver is not available, perhaps your manufacturer does not support the OS you are installing.

This is the best way of ensuring up to date drivers for your system and they are free of charge!

I hope this helps.

Hi,

This computer is designed only for upto Windows Vista 64bit OS. What you can do is Identify the Brand and Model number of each component that needs drivers. Then visit the website of each component for their Windows 7 drivers. Should you find yourself a dead end, last option is to install the highest Windows version which is Vista 32bit or 64bit. TIP: Vista works great if updates are controlled.

This the link for your Lenovo 3000 C100 drivers.
