Errors/Bugs in Bios 1.26 and Display Driver

#1 Post by meditate2001 » Wed Oct 31, 2007 6:14 am

Unfortunatly there are still a lot of bugs in the latest bios and the latest lenovo display driver....

Bios: Still the bug remains;
- if i close the lid and opens it, it takes ages to get the screen back.
- if i close the lid with external monitor attached the screens still switch...

display driver: lenovo, please update to a new driver from nvidia. i got 1982 points with 3dmark05 and 2950 points with the latest nvidia driver !!!
i mean if you sell this thing with this graphiccard and you cannt use it with your driver....????

anyone with same issues ?

i have vista ultimate 64-bit on my main drive and XPP on a second drive and no problems whatsoever with either one.   i'm not sure what's going on with your XPP installation. :?

do you have lenovo CSS or presentation director installed?   perhaps one of these are causing a conflict.   what about third-party software like google desktop, picasa web, or anything like that?

erik, thanks for the advice. but no i deinstalled all this software coz i also thought that these are the probs....
the first disply driver for nvidia and xp were running better, but now it is getting worse... :(

funny thing is that they said that they solve these problems but it didnt change a thing....[censored]...
