Support and Downloads Site DOWN at Lenovo.com (Back up now)

#1 Post by benstar10 » Sun Jan 13, 2008 3:47 pm

I just called the tech support line after noticing the Support site (http://www.lenovo.com/support/)is down (since last night). They told me they have no ETA. I just installed a fresh Windows 2000 - need those drivers. Doo!

It's not unusual for sites to be down for maintenance on the weekend.

I encountered the same problem.

I found that you can download an individual driver if you know the exact version number, via Google Cached page. But only one driver at a time.

For example Google ACPI v1.43 click on Cached, then you can download 7kku06ww.exe

The links from summary (Cached) of all drivers for a model do not work.

Hope this helps

well it still seems to be having troubles. I was on it for a few mins today to get some specs from a machine but now i can't get on it again to get the warranty info.

Even the products ORDERING page is down. How much money are they loosing now since customers can't ORDER anything and it only give any info, just a blank page, not even a error page with the phone number ot call and order instead.
