It seems there is some problem with the earthing.
Though its on my priority list to get the wiring in my house checked by the electrician, will it have any adverse effect on machine if I continue using it in such condition (coz getting connections fixed in a rented apartment may get clumsy at times :p)

And you got 1 +2 years extended warranty?

no, i didn't get 2 yr extended warranty, but that is a different topic altogether. i knew that seller was not offering, but due to being out of stock with wsretail and do store, and i deciding i could not wait, i ordered. has 1 year warranty but i will extend it later myself.

just wanted to update the folks here...
The y510p which I bought in April did have the Warranty extended to 1 + 2 years. Though i didn't get any mail/post with documents, the lenovo support site acknowledges it when i type in the S/N.
So good enough for me.

Check in Lenovo Solution Center that comes pre installed or access their website and check with your S/N

Same here, though I did receive a mail confirming that my product is eligible for the same

I have purchased from snapdeal and have got warranty. Didnt worry about seller. Actually I later knew that lenovo has stopped issuing warranty to online retailers. Luckily I got warranty. To add cherry to the topping I even got Accidental warranty free for a year under their promotion

I got my lap with win 8.1. Its really iritating to work with .And am hoping to install the much talked about update that was released a few months that brought in several features.. bt wen I checked for updates I found the largest update was for 100MB something..
Have I missed my chance to get the update ?

So guys, I did manage to find myself an i5 y510p. It was one of the last ones available and I got it for 60k. Good Deal?

Also, the laptop takes somewhat of a long time to charge. 20140720_124004[1].jpg IS that how the charger looks? The power ratings for output are 19.5 V- 6.15A. I have a suspicion that I accidentally swapped the charger or something. Pls help dudes

You can make it charge to 100% by clicking Energy Management and in the second column changing Optimized Battery Health to Max battery life.
If you are using it as a desktop replacement then use the Optimized Battery Health setting otherwise change to max battery life if you use it in the go.
