Windows 10: So many problems with my Lenovo machine.

Their customer support is literally terrible. Also, I am now out of warranty (not that they ever helped me when I was in warranty and asked them for help). I hope that there are polite people on here who will be able to be of assistance to myself:




1. Sometimes, when I close the lid and leave the machine for more than 20 to 30 minutes, the power button will be lit but no matter how many times I press keys or the mouse buttons, the screen will not come on and I will have to wrongly press the power button down for several seconds to force the machine off then press it again to start it again.

2. Also, there are many times that after I open the lid after having closed it, my Wi-Fi will not work at all even if I wait. The only way to resolve this is to restart the machine.

Both of these issues have existed in my machine since I first bought it but I did not complain at the time because I was so busy with work. I only just about had enough time to complain about some other problems with the machine.

In addition to all of the above, today I used their software to update my drivers then my computer stopped working. Blue Screen of Death citing "Stop code: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION" every time that I logged on to Windows. Luckily I was able to fix it by performing a system restore. I was already done buying from them but this just makes my impression of them even badder.




And these are just some of the problems. I have never experienced anything this bad before and I have owned a lot of different computers from different brands. This was my first time with a Lenovo machine. Safe to say that I will never buy a Lenovo product ever again, including even if they use a different brand name or do whatever business "trick".

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.

Lenovo Windows 10 upgrade problem

Same problem here. Tried to follow your suggestion. Steps 1-3 work fine, but oddly, step 4 triggers the following response: "get-AppXPackage" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

The flicking ends, but the Program manager still prevents shut-down, and nothing else works. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I cannot help the suspicion that Norton 360 interferes, because it is the last icon displayed, but not displayed correctly.
