Chapter 7. Preventing problems An important part of owning a ThinkPad notebook computer is maintenance. With proper care, you can avoid common problems. This chapter provides information that can help you keep your computer running smoothly.
– If your computer uses discs as the recovery media, do not remove the disc from the drive until prompted to do so. • For suspected hard disk drive issues, refer to “Diagnosing problems” on page 93 and run a diagnostic test for the drive before you call the Customer Support Center. If your computer does not start up, download the files to create a bootable self-test medium from http://www.lenovo.com/hddtest. Run the test and record any messages or error codes.
For more information about how to use the System Update program, refer to the help information system of the program. Taking care of your computer Although your computer is designed to function reliably in normal work environments, you need to use common sense in handling it. By following the important tips in this topic, you will get the most use and enjoyment out of your computer.
• Store your external and removable hard disk drive or optical drives in the appropriate containers or packaging when they are not being used. • Before you install a memory card such as an SD card, SDHC card, SDXC card, and a MultiMediaCard, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action reduces any static electricity from your body. The static electricity could damage the device.
Cleaning your computer keyboard To clean the computer keyboard, do the following: 1. Apply some isopropyl rubbing alcohol to a soft, dust-free cloth. Note: Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the keyboard. 2. Wipe each keytop surface with the cloth. Wipe the keys one by one; if you wipe several keys at a time, the cloth might hook onto an adjacent key and possibly damage it. Make sure that no liquid drips onto or between the keys. 3. Allow to dry. 4.

Using recovery media On the Windows 7 operating system, you can use recovery media to restore the computer to the factory default settings only. You can use recovery media to put the computer in an operational state after all other methods of recovery have failed. Attention: When you use recovery media to restore the computer to the factory default settings, all the files currently on the storage devices will be deleted and replaced by the factory default settings.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the recovery operation. For more information about performing a recovery operation from the Rescue and Recovery workspace, see “Using the Rescue and Recovery workspace” on page 113. Using the Rescue and Recovery workspace The Rescue and Recovery workspace resides in a protected, hidden area of your storage devices that operates independently from the Windows operating system.
Note: After restoring your storage devices to the factory default settings, you might have to reinstall device drivers for some devices. See “Reinstalling preinstalled programs and device drivers” on page 114. Creating and using a rescue medium With a rescue medium, such as a disc or a USB hard disk drive, you can recover the computer from failures that prevent you from gaining access to the Rescue and Recovery workspace on your hard disk drive. Notes: 1.
Reinstalling preinstalled programs To reinstall selected programs, do the following: 1. Turn on your computer. 2. Go to the C:\SWTOOLS directory. 3. Open the APPS folder. The folder contains several subfolders named for the various preinstalled applications. 4. Open the subfolder for the program you are reinstalling. 5. Double-click Setup, and then follow the on-screen steps to reinstall the program.
It is important to create a rescue medium and a set of recovery media as early as possible and store them in a safe place for future use. Recovery overview for the Windows 10 operating system The Windows recovery programs enable you to reset your computer or use advanced startup options. It is recommended that you create a recovery USB drive as early as possible. Store the recovery USB drive as a backup or replacement for the Windows recovery programs.
Creating and using a recovery USB drive You can create a recovery USB drive as a backup for the Windows recovery programs. With the recovery USB drive, you can troubleshoot and fix the problems even if the preinstalled Windows recovery programs are damaged. Creating a recovery USB drive The USB drive that you use to create the recovery USB drive must be at least 16 GB of storage. The actual USB capacity that is required depends on the size of the recovery image.
