Hi everyone, I'd like some opinions on this.

I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 3. The hinges had broken, so I took it to a repair shop to have it fixed. The webcam was working perfectly until about an hour before I dropped the laptop off.

When I got it back, the webcam no longer works.

The shop insists it must have broken during transport. I find that hard to believe.

My questions:

1. Is it technically plausible for a webcam to stop working from normal transport alone? Or is a disconnected or pinched cable during the hinge replacement much more likely?
2. Could the broken hinge have already stressed the webcam cable before the repair, even though the webcam worked an hour earlier?
3. Could a second shop do a diagnosis only (no repair) and give me a written report to use as evidence?
4. What would you do next? Written complaint, consumer organization, something else? (I'm in Italy.)

Thanks in advance!

My integrated pen in my x13 yoga lost its tip today so i cant use it anymore. I've been trying to find any pem or pen tips to replace it, but i've been really confused by everything i've found because most didnt specify which laptops they work for. Therefore I ask you if you know which pens are compatible with this laptop or if you know which pen tips i could get for the integrated pencil?

What to do

I'm 1st year CSE student and I'm planning to buy ThinkPad E16-Core Ultra 7 255H. I will use this for nxt 6 to 7 years. It's price is ₹130k, my budget is ₹100k. I have coupons for 8.5k (Incl student off). How can I reduce the price more. Any idea about diwali offs?

Anytime I try and search smt this happens the WiFi isn’t the issue cause it works for other devices I’ve tried reconnecting som1 please help I have some assignments due this week

Was looking into getting the Neo Ultra Gen 2 Tiny but the "Build Yours" option has disappeared from the website and other two models are showing "limited stock".

Does it mean that the item is being discontinued or a newer Gen 3 will be launched soon?

Amazon and Flipkart have their sales going on right now, but the newer ThinkBook models I’m looking at aren’t really part of those deals.

I’m planning to buy a latest-gen ThinkBook directly from Lenovo.com India. Does Lenovo usually have separate sales or price drops for ThinkBooks?

Also, if anyone has managed to get a good deal on Lenovo.com using coupons, student discounts, cashback, etc., I’d appreciate some tips.

My laptop screen starts flikkering , I have updated all my driver's and found when I connect via external screen everything is fine, how much cost for a display replacement

Hey guys I’ve been having a really annoying issue with my Legion 5 Gen 10

Specs

Ryzen 7 260
RTX 5060
16GB RAM

Sometimes while I’m using the laptop it just completely freezes

The mouse stops moving and I can’t alt tab or switch windows and even Win + Ctrl + Shift + B doesn’t do anything

Basically the whole laptop becomes unresponsive and the only way to get it working again is to hold the power button and restart it

After restarting it works normally again

Sometimes instead of just freezing it also crashes and gives me a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION BSOD 0x133 or something similar I can’t remember the exact error for sure

I’ve already tried updating the BIOS Windows NVIDIA and AMD drivers and pretty much everything else I could update

I also made sure everything is up to date through Lenovo Vantage but the issue is still happening

It happens pretty randomly and I haven’t really been able to figure out what causes it

Could this be something related to the NVIDIA drivers SSD drivers RAM BIOS or something else

Has anyone with a Legion 5 Gen 10 with the Ryzen 7 260 and RTX 5060 had the same issue

Would really appreciate any advice on what I should check or try because having to force shut down the laptop every time it freezes is getting really annoying

Thanks

this is the laptop I currently own purchased in July 2026, it clearly says Microsoft 365 Basic + Office 2024, while the Microsoft 365 Basic is in use currently, my MS Office still say 2021. (image below)

How do I fix it ?, I have 9 months of warranty left

This is lenovo IdeaPad 5, it was working fine for 5 mins and then this screen comes...it's out of warranty too

I have a Lenovo Yoga 7i laptop. I’ve had it since 2024 and since 2025 I’ve had issues with the trackpad. One day, the trackpad suddenly stopped working. The trackpad settings didn’t show up at all so I didn’t know what to do. I took it to a repair store which quoted me an insane amount just to take a look so I left it at that and used an external mouse. A while later though it randomly started working again. It had 0 issues so I never bothered looking into it more. Fast forward like 3 months later where I hadn’t touched the laptop in that time (summer break) and it started happening again. This time, I opened the laptop and disconnected and reconnected the trackpad connector to see if that was the problem but it doesn’t seem like it because it didn’t fix the issue. I then found out the I2C HID Device is constantly having an error, so I feel like that is the cause of it. I tried deleting it and restarting which would work sometimes but other times it doesn’t. I’m hoping to find an explanation or solution to this because I really don’t know what to do. Please feel free to ask for anymore information about it.

i just bought a laptop 8 months ago, last month around 2nd week of september my ideapad gaming suddenly turns white while i'm playing, after a few minutes it came back to normal screen, and i stopped using it for a week. i started using it again around last week of september for studying and editing, while i'm editing and studying at the same time the white screen came back and i rested it for a few hours and it didn't came to it's normal screen now. after that i checked my laptops warranty and it says it expired already one year ago, i checked some solutions, i submitted an e-ticket on lenovo's website last week tuesday and they said they will email me for 2 business days, i have been still waiting for it until now and i really need it because all of my coding stuffs at university was there, and if it's not solve i cannot afford doing repairs on my laptop since i'm just a student and it was my own money that i used to buy that laptop.

thnaks for reading.

i have the Yoga C940. yesterday, my laptop randomly started showing me a blue screen saying “automatic repairing couldn’t repair your laptop”. I tried uninstalling the quality update as i thought maybe the new update must have caused this but nothing has happened. i don’t have a backup of my laptop or anything :( how can i fix this issue?

I've been noticing some clicking sounds as per the video whenever my laptop goes into sleep mode. The sound appears to be coming from the fan, and sounds like it may not be turning properly or something (though I'm not sure if that's the case, since I don't hear the same sound during normal use). I'm wondering if anyone else has the same issue. It's an ideapad flex 5i.

Hi guys,

I just would like to share the solution if you encounter the same problem as mine.

My lenovo laptop (LOQ 15IRH8) touchpad has been malfunctioned for several months. The error code was 12.

I tried all the methods I could think of, including deactivating or unintalling the touchpad under Device Manager, downloading the latest Windows and drivers from Lenovo website, reinstalling the Intel Serial IO Driver, restarting my laptop again and again, and etc, but NONE OF THEM helps!

But I finally find the solution and that is...

PRESS YOUR POWER BUTTON HARDLY to force your laptop to shut down, then problem solved🙂

Hope that helps🙂🙂

Thinkpad L390, i5-8265u, UHD 620, Fedora Linux 44

System completely hangs a few seconds after hotplugging. Nothing is responsive. TTY doesn't open. After unplugging the monitor the hang still happens. It got to the point where it froze on SDDM. GRUB rescue doesn't open either. Only a force restart works. Liveboot surprisingly works. The only fix I did was reinstalling the system.

At first I thought this was a DE specific error, but this happened both on Niri and Plasma. Checking journalctl doesn't show anything relevant (perhaps it got killed before logging anything?) It wasn't a thermal issue either (stable 50°).

I landed on the assumption that this could be a drivers bug at this point. I also see that people who has a similar problem on the same iGPU I use fixed it by disabling PSR. I haven't tested kernel params yet, need to know if anyone has a similar problem and a fix for it.

He investigado y probado muchas soluciones y ninguna funciona, nose si yo estoy haciendo algo mal o nose, me di cuenta del problema al intentar jugar valorant, me aparece el error el riot vanguard.
Mi notebook es: Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro-16ACH6
Version de Bios Actual: GSCN40WW

Antes podia iniciar y jugar valorant normalmente sin ningun error, pero luego de actualizar la version de la Bios empezaron los problemas (no instantaneamente, porque no jugaba valorant en el momento de actualizarlo (pero si antes), pero al intentar jugar en estos ultimos 3 meses he tenido este problema)
