If you have iso, you need to burn them to physical dvd and boot with them to restore

T470s screen vs t460s
I dont have the # number with me, but it seems the t470s screen (laptop from work) has worse screen than the t460s i have. Both are 1920x1080. or am I just not used to the t470s screen.

Re: T460s
Ok I see what you mean, the regular t460 has sata, 460s does not. I think I should have gotten the 460p which has both sata & m.2

Yoga S1 20CD
Having issue with this MINI HDMI cable to DVI or to DISPLAY PORT
It does not output to certain type of monitor, i'm currently using an usb to dvi adapter but i think its chewing up cpu power.. I'm also using a cable off amazon.. anyone have better luck?

x220i - crack screen
I inherited a broken x220i with crack screen. So the lenovo site used to tell you what parts your pc was shipped with, I dont see that option any more. Anyone know ?
So if that's the case, I'll have to pull the screen out first? Is IPS an option or not for 220i ?

Re: Windows 7 on Yoga?
second problem, when you are in tablet mode, the screen does not rotate, might be a software/driver issue, i just dont know what.. the pinch to zoom does not work in windows 7
so if you want those feature, i skip this model, if you dont use them, it works pretty well

Last year they had mandatory internal battery, i just check the configs, the internal battery can be an option. and I saw the warranty, the internal battery isn't cover unless you get the warranty with battery coverage.
Anyone know what the internal battery may weight ?

Yeah I got the system in December.. I like the ultrabase because you can plug a dvd drive in there.. it might out later or not at all.. using a usb dvd drive now.. takes up space on desk.
