Right off the assembly line
Got my laptop a few days ago, Its not detecting one of my HDs.
I have a WD essentials 500GB and a Hitachi Touro 500gb
Its not detecting the hitachi one, It reads on my Win7 desktop, but not on the laptop
I even ran a CHKDSK on it. /f /r /x.
Can anyone give me any suggestions?

Connect your external to your lappy and then go to administrative tools in control panel... Then to computer management and then storage and then disk management... check whether it is listed there at the bottom of the page... If your hdd appears as offline right click on it and make it online...

Installation of Windows 7 is very easy if you know the trick. If you have restructured all the partitions than OneKey Recovery wont work and the backup becomes useless as far as I know. Only option now left for you is fresh installation of Windows 8 Single Language, just follow my previous post regarding the Installation of Windows 8.1 on Y510P

Just go to the device manager>USB Controller and update them all, just point them one by one to the Drivers folder given at your 25GB partition. Some of the drivers for USB will be updated and you may start getting good speed and if this also doesn't work than Download and run latest Intel Chipset installation utility from Intel website.

Yes keshab there might be a way to restore backup partition again and then create an image of your current system but that would require downloading OneKey Recovery 8.0 engineering DVD iso and then following a process. You can search for "one key recovery and disk management" thread on google. People have restored the novo button functionality and there are guides available.

Flipkart's only seller techhunt is not delivering in mumbai/pune :S
Snapdeal doesn't have this model, neither does the official lenovo website.
What do I do guys? Any idea about local stores with decent pricing?

:shock: 97 degree it means it definately need a cooling pad or else mobo will be roasted in couple of days of regular playing games like this.
And @ comment 310 I asked my local market regarding the price City "Lucknow" They told me of 76000rs with bag, wireless mouse, 8gb pen drive, and 2 year extended warranty which will be equal to 3years in total.
