I have this laptop for more than 4 months now and I cannot play on it. I am using it on two external monitors. One on HDMI and one on a USB3 display link (also hdmi). (Perfectly works when im in work using 3D Studio Max, Photoshop, Premiere pro, etc. but useless with games)I am able to play with any games for like 5-10 minutes and then the Nvidia driver randomly crashes with various error messages:Images of various error messagesI have tried to solve it for many many hours but I am out of ideas. Here is what I did:- Download and install newest and some older Nvidia drivers (incluiding and excluding Nvidia Experience)- Upgrade Bios to 35WW- Set everything to High performance NVIDIA processor in Nvidia control panel.- Set always Nvidia in physx- Tried to download and install the newest (including betas) intel GPU drivers and some older.- Set everything to performance in Intel® HD Graphics Control Panel- Not using any external monitors (I have crashes that way as well)I don't know where to go now... It seems that it is a driver problem, or anything like that but I don't think that it would be a hardware problem because when it is runnning it is smooth and good performance. The temperatures are totally ok, max 70-75 celsius degrees. I cannot see throttling at all.Is anyone out there with similar problem?The games I tried to run:- Star Wars: Battlefront 3- Battlefield 4- World of Tanks- Alien IsolationI would like (very very want to!) to play on this machine but currently it makes me angry with these 5-10 minutes crashes.Please help if someone has an idea or solution.Thank you!
Could you try running Furmark, and let me know if it crashes?

Hi y70015ISKm2SSD ,
Welcome to the Community Forums.
What you can initially try is to disable fast boot under shutdown settings > advanced power options.
If same issue continue to disable "allow hybrid sleep" either from same advance power settings or from cmd as administrator using powercfg -h off to disable hibernation if needed.
Update us how it goes .

HelloI bought a Y700 about two weeks ago. Laptop was dedicated to work and it work great. Yesterday I installed driver ubCorePro for my firewire device.

It's second similar situation. About week ago I bought a USB 3.0 - VGA device (I must work on multi screen) but then I could see a Lenovo logo on start, it was possible to acces the BIOS and run a safe mode, uninstall driver and install the newest version of it. Now I can't see anything. I try novo key to reset, every combinations of F8, shift+F8 etc. I try to discharge battery, but still nothing. Please help me, my boss will kill me, I have to work !

I've been having issues with my NVIDIA Drivers becoming corrupt on my Y700 with the NVIDIA Geforce GTX 960M. Every few days when I try to play a DirectX games like Guild Wars 2 or Team Fortress 2, the games fail to launch. GW2 doesn't fire up after clicking the Play button in the launcher but there is not warning message. TF2 will give a Direct3D error when I try to launch it. In any case, the only solution I have found is to download and reinstall the NVIDIA drivers. I currently have driver verion 368.22 but this has been happening on older NVIDIA drivers as well. After reinstalling the NVIDIA drivers, everything works fine for a few days.More replies

Just ran a calibration of the display using Calman RGB last night and have to say that I am a little disappointed. The grayscale calibration worked well and I ended up with under .5% error but the color was way off out of the box and for some reason the Calman software could not make any significant improvement to the primary and seconday colors. Initial color error was almost 9%... a very noticable flaw in color reproduction. Calman did manage to improve other color points to get the overall color error to about 3% but, if just measuring the primaries and secondaries, the error appears to be in the 7% to 8% range. Curious if anyone else has tried calibrating their Y700 and managed to achieve better results ? Also curious what others think about the mod to remove the anti-glare film ? I don't like it. It actually creates a haze under direct sunlight. And I wonder if the anti-glare film is messing with the color.
The antiglare really does impact clarity. I'm not sure if colors are affected by it, but reason seams to think yes to some extent.4 more replies

Evening. I have purchased the Lenovo Y700-15ISK and having installed CS GO I am experiencing FPS spikes every 5-10 minutes of gameplay. At first I believed it was down to the GPU temperature reaching the throttle limit of 67 degrees but after further tests I have played for 1 hour+ and the temperature has not gone above 60 degrees. These spikes happen as soon as I enter the game even if the laptop has only just been turned on so I don't believe it is temperature related. I have the max processor state at 99% to eliminate turbo and it does not make any difference if I have the graphics settings on high or low. Any ideas or help would be appreciated as I seem to have hit a brick wall. Thanks in advance. Chris Keegan.More replies
Has anybody tried 16GB x 2 in Y700-15ISK ?If yes, which make and model? My pc came with 8gb x2 DDR4 2133 dimms.
Go to Solution.
Hi basitj ,
Greetings .
I was also waiting for other members to try going beyond 16 GB on this model.
So far, was not able to get a verified working upgrade on this model most likely since it was just released in the market and that it is using DDR4 already.
Seen models that worked from beyond recommended RAM from OEM since memory controller of processor usually exceed whole system max ram. This is due to systemboard limitation and firmware identification set by OEM.
If you can have your company IT group test it or have computer shop to try going beyong 16 GBDDR4 then it's the only time we can decide .
Update us if possible , it would be a good reference for our community.

If you want to just change the screen colors when you are in Windows, you need to right click somewhere blank on the screen, and select personalize. From there you can choose a Background wallpaper, windows colors, font sizes and much more. http://www.howtogeek.com/225893/how-to-personalize-windows-10s-appearance/ Good Luck,2 more replies

Can you be a little clearer with your issue. From what I can gather, you're having problems with the brightness of your screen f right? Most issues like yours can be fixed/managed in settings menu. Go to display and find the brightness that suits you. Hope this helps. This is the best I could come up with based on how you asked your question.1 more replies

Not sure what is going on exactly. Once I was able to actually see what the "error" was on the blue page, the other times it was gone so freaking fast. "igdkmd64.sys" Recently I've also noticed that when I hover over links in either Chrome or Opera it starts to jitter the screen a bit, but firefox doesn't. Not sure if they are related or what. I downloaded the driver through windows (device manager and etc) and through intel and either did anything it seems. My GeForce drivers seem to be up to date as well. Hopefully someone has a though or etc.More replies
I am experiencing a display error every time that I boot up my new laptop from sleep or being off. It looks like there are boxes all over the screen (attached).

Was that Win 10 via onekey. Regardless, check and apply the latest driver and utilities from downloads.Windows 10 will optimize fast boot startup after several shutdown and restart cycles. No doubt there are also outstanding Windows Updates as well which will take a long time to install and catch up to the current releases.

Hello All, I have several issues with my Y700-15ISK. I have the latest BIOS (CDCN35NWW or something from 2016/03/29) (in EUFI mode). The latest one, before all BIOS updates in connection with Y700 15ISKi disappeared from the Lenovo sites. I mostly use the latop with an external monitor via HDMI. Sometimes (I could not find a rule when) it starts to display red dots over the screen. If it is 3D graphics it moves along with the texture. You can see screenshots in the link below. The second problem is that the display goes black at random times and then it comes back after a 1-2 seconds. It is like when you change the resolution. The 3rd problem is when the BIOS is in EUFI mode sometimes I get a VGA error 43 in the Windows Device Manager. The system tells me that it had problems with the device and disabled it completely. The solution for this is to reset the BIOS back to factory defaults and reconfigure it to the desired state. This is jus ta workaround because this problem can occur also totally random. I've tested my external display with my other laptop Lenovo T440s with DisplayPort to HDMI converter and the same HDMI cable. Never experienced any problems. Tried Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 64 bit systems and all the Chipset, and VGA drivers which came out since then (provided by both Lenovo and Nvidia).

Hi, I've been experiencing this throttling issue for the past month now ( I've had this laptop since January). The fps drop from 170 to 60 for a couple of seconds and go back up to the initial value. I've had this issue a couple of times before but it would fix itself after restart (usually had it when I wake the laptop from sleep and immediately load CS:GO). Now, I notice that this happens everytime I start playing and the temp goes above 69 degrees - I used to play with 170-200fps before with GPU temps surpassing 80 degrees with no fps drops at all. This is really frustrating, especially when knowing that my brother has no FPS drops using my 5 year old Lenovo Y570 with geforce GT 555m...Is there any way to fix this? I mean the gaming experience, as stated above was fine until a week ago, when I started getting these FPS drops, so that means that this issue can actually be fixed. Specs are Intel Core i7-6700HQGTX960M 4GB12 GB DDR4256GB SSD ( CS:GO is on the SSD if that matters)I use Speedfan to check the temps. CS:GO is using the nvidia gpu, and the gpu is se to performance, power saving is disabled i am using balanced performance and set all advanced settings to maximum performance.More replies

Hello, I recently bought a Lenovo Y700-15ISK with i5 6300HQ, Geforce GTX 960, 1 TB WD HDD (No SSD). I really like this laptop. But there are some serious issues that I don't know how to fix. First of all, I have installed Windows 10 Home edition. I disabled all the windows 10 problems, that were eating my memory, hdd. But I still find my computer quite slow when working... I expected it to be a beast. Actually it takes about 90 seconds to boot Windows 10. It's not normal... I saw worse laptops boot much faster... And the programs: When I double click My computer it takes like 3-4 seconds to open it. The second time I double click it it's much faster. Right click also lags. Opening chrome takes like 5 to 10 seconds. And when I install programs, install from ISO files, copy files I can't do anything else. The laptop lags a lot, sometimes freezes. But games like GTA, Fifa work fine - no lag in high graphics. I've done a lot of things, reinstalled the windows - nothing helps. Is this normal? Do I need a SSD for windows 10 or what?.... Or do I need to install windwos 10 as UEFI? But I read that there is not a big difference. The HDD has no errors, checked it many times, the transfer speeds are good. The next thing, I decided to go to Windows 7 64 bit on this notebook. The good old windows that I always liked. I installed it. And... I also have problems... Actually this windows works much faster, better. But I can't install the Audio device and Bluetooth (well bluetooth i... Read moreMore replies
So, one recently my Lenovo Solution Center is giving me this error telling me something isn't working. Here's the error code: Result Code: WVC003002-UL7VON. Is this affecting my gaming? Because I haven't been able to run newer games all too well. And this computer has a 970m. That's somewhat new. Secondly, the computer has been running really slow recently, and not being very responsive. It'll freeze from time to time, or it won't work. Like I tried to open my windows search on windows 10, but it just wouldn't let me. Same with the Lenovo Center. I had to completely shut it down, and relaunch it for it to open it up. Thirdly, a question. How do I turn off the little pop-up thing when I turn on caps lock or num lock. I don't need a notification to tell me I pressed it, I know I pressed it. Thanks.

Hi guys,As you read already in the subject, I posess a Lenovo Y700-15ISK (i7-6700 Skylake, 16GB RAM, NVIDIA 960M 4GB DDR5, 512GB SSD) and I need at work two external monitors. One is bind directly via HDMI cable but for the second one I needed the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter to make it work because, as you already know, the new generation from Lenovo comes only with one HDMI port and that's all. Now, the problem is that the adapter is not working. I tried with different laptops with older specs and it worked just fine. Then, I took another lenovo y700-14ISK which didn't have the NVIDIA graphic board and also no SSD, but the same processor. Guess what?! Didn't work. Then, I thought that the new Intel Processor with the new HD Graphics 530 is the problem because I tried also with a brand new MSI with the same processor, and it didn't work. I was kinda happy thinking that at least I know where the problem is, until a friend of mine bought an ASUS ROG which has the same processor, and it worked without any problem to bind with the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. Now, as you can see, I'm trying to figure it out, where exactly is the problem. FYI I tried, before writing here, everything I could find on the internet regarding this kind of problems and nothing worked for me.

Hello, I noticed that while my Ideapad Y700-15IS is turned off, my mouse is still powered (it is a laser one, the laser is still up).It is an old Microsoft mouse, a Basic Optical Mouse v2.1.It is possible over connected stuff too, but no way to notice (headset, ...). I tried it on the 17" equivalent model of a friend, the mouse wasn't powered... Any idea what could be wrong?
Hello and welcome,
It may be that nothing is wrong. You laptop may have an "always-on" USB port that can be used for charging external devices.
You might try using another port, or checking BIOS to see if there's an option to turn off that feature.
I'm having trouble finding documentation that addresses this, so the above is just a guess.
So I'm planning on buying this model: Lenovo Ideapad Y700-15ISK, but the one I'm looking to buy doesn't have an SSD and doesn't specify which ports are still available, only that it has a 1TB HDD. So I wanted to ask: 1. Does it have a free M.2 port? all models of the Y700-15ISK should have them, or am I wrong? 2. Which type of M.2 SSD does it support? M or B+M? I already sent the same questions to the retailer, but I am still waiting for an answer so thought I'd ask here as well.More replies

There is no option to change my mode from IDE to AHCI in BIOS due to it being locked. How can I work around this?
Look in the device manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller, it should say Intel(R) 100 Series/C230 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller.

Hi Giulia1591 ,
Welcome to the Community Forums.
Resetting the operating system will not invalidate your warranty.
In doing such , your Lenovo machine actually have a feature that make it easier for the user to perform it using the One Key Recovery feature that would delete and reimage your system the way it was from out of the box.
Just turn off the laptop and press the Novo button (item1,page 72) to turn back on.
Novo menu , system recovery would offer One Key Recovery from initial backup that would automatically reset the laptop. Other recovery options for windows 10 are available too.
Do take note on how you reset windows 10.
If you are to perform a clean installation (reinstalling via a downloaded image), this would delete the OKR feature and treated as a retail version specially if you install a different version other than what came with the laptop.
Hope this help answer your query.

Hello, 20 years i brought IBM thinkpad ... because they were and some are still rock solid.To get a nice laptop for few basic stuff, i brought the Ideapad Y700 ( ISK ) and ... i read the forum about all these people getting the same Hardware Failure on Power / Wakeup from Sleep mode!I think my system was up to date ... now i have a solib brick ... when i power it i have only light of keyboard blinking one time, no beep , no alarm , no screen and no fan noise ... either nothing on screen.My first words are for technical manager and representative of Lenovo ... this is far to be , and i count my words ... professional to keeep to sell this kind of device if you know that your Hardware line have a problem.So now i wait official reply about this question : What is your promise about if you swap this hardware or fix it ... it will never happend anymore after the end of warranty ...

This morning I noticed a new bios version (CDCN52WW) was available so I installed it. It seemed to install ok, with no errors, but then the laptop got stuck in a bootloop where the Lenovo logo (now on a new ugly colored background) comes up for 10 seconds or so, then reboots. I don't have a recovery partition anymore, so the Novo reset won't work. Is there a way to force it to boot from USB? I tried F12, but didn't work. Called support and they want me to ship the laptop for repair, but I would really like to avoid that if possible.
if you press many times F2 can you get into bios menu? The new logo means the bios flashed ok and its not bricked1 more replies
I recently bought this laptop and I have two problems:1. Especially when the screen is black, there is a green light on the upper part of the screen. I don't know what causes it maybe a led or something is installed badly (it's a 5 cm² area). Should I take it back and ask for a new one?2. This problem is related to scaling. When it is set to 100%, everything is small but crystal clear. When at 150%, everything looks normal but some apps like Steam, BitTorrent... are blurry like they were just zoomed on. Reinstalling windows and drivers should solve this? Simply reinstalling drivers didn't help.Thanks!
I don't know anything about your first problem (it may be a hardware problem), but I do know something about the second. Some programs (Steam, for example) aren't made for high-dpi screens. for these programs that appear blurry, right click on their icon (on the desktop), and click properties. Under the compatibility tab, check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings". This should work after you restart the program.4 more replies

Hi, I am really interested in this laptop especially in variant with i7-6700HQ, so far everything looks pretty much as a dream comes true, but I have one more question. Is Intel VT-D supported? It's huge game changer for me, because I want to be able to run multiple virtualmachines and passthrough nvidia gpu to them. According Intel, VT-D on this cpu is supported, but I can't find any info support with this motherboard. Thanks
This Machine support Intel VT-D. I have VMware running on it.1 more replies
i have just bought a new y700-15ISK and trying to play DOOM.According to youtube videos I've seen, this should be absolutely no problem. I installed the latest intel and nvidia drivers from the lenovo website, I upgraded the bios to the latest version, and configured the graphics to use the nvidia gpu. Yet even at the lowest quality settings possible, I get only 8 fps in the start screen. once the game starts, it drops to 2 fps. The in-game diagnostics say that it uses the nvidia card, but that is impossible. It seems as if behind the scenes, the intel takes over again. I searched on the internet and found severa; people with similar issues, but no solutions. Does anyone here have a suggestion on how to proceed, other than returning the laptop and buying a different brand?
I feel silly now for posting, but I figured it out right after posting this. I figured I should post the solution just in case others having the same problem find this: After installing all drivers, I discovered that having and using the latest nvidia driver is no good if you don't have the latest nvidia 'game ready' drivers, and these are not updated automatically. So I opened the gameready app via the system tray, updated the gameready driver, and re-scanned for compatible games. It found doom, suggested the change of some settings, and allowed me to launch doom, running at excellent frame rates. I still don't understand why this would be a problem. Last I knew, games supported 3d drivers. 3d drivers didn't support individual games. As long as the graphics drivers were up to date, the game should be able to use them. But then again my last 3d gaming experience was Quake3Arena on a Core2Duo With a Geforce 7950 :-)1 more replies
My laptop came with windows 10 pre-installed. I've been trying to downgrade it to windows 7 64 bit. Every time i put the CD in the drive to boot windows 7, it seems to work up until the point where it scans the hardware configuration. At that point it asks me for drivers and will not continue. There are drivers for windows 7 on the product page for this model, but they look like drivers that you would use after you get windows installed. Can someone post me the steps about what i need to do in order to make this work? What settings i need to have in the bios, and any drivers i would need for the install of windows 7? Thanks
Go to Solution.
So to update this, i still haven't figured out how to install windows 7 on this. Here's what i've done: I've used both the Windows 7 DVD and i created a bootable USB wiith it (UEFI Boot). They work. I disabled the security in the bios, so i could work with UEFI, but when i boot the machine with either, the windows 7 loading screen happens, then it freezes on the Starting Windows animated logo. I can get no further. When i set the bios to boot in legacy mode it gets past that part, but then asks me for a driver. I've downloaded all of the windows 7 64 bit drivers on the Y700-15ISK driver page, but none of them seem to be the driver that windows is looking for. Right now i'm a little at the end of my rope on this. Any help would be appreciated.9 more replies

Hello all, I recently bought a Lenovo Y700-15ISK and as I downloaded the drivers, I stumbled upon the BIOS update. There are 2 bios updates one marked as CDCN35WW and another marked as CDCN52WW having the same release date. My laptop currently has a BIOS version of CDCN27WW, 12/11/2015.So my question is which of these 2 BIOS updates do I download and apply? Do I first apply CDCN35WW and then CDCN52WW or do I apply only CDCN52WW (maybe it contains CDCN35WW)?Also what steps do I need to follow to properly flash the BIOS with minimum risk? My current BIOS settings are UEFI with an SSD as the boot disk with all the other settings not touched. Thanks,PenthonMore replies
As usual I put my PC on sleep at night (it was charging). Woke up, opened the lid and there's nod isplay. Screen is dead black, no display. Long press power button, reboot, the keyboard backlight is up, PC is clearly booting with boot sounds but no display. Pressed Fn + F3 to see if it works, no luck Then connected an external monitor, no luck, restarted and well, the display shows up on the external monitor. At this point, Windows sees only 1 monitor installed, that is on the HDMI, nothing internal. Both duplicate screen and external only work on the external monitor. Restarted several times, shut down and start, no luck. PC is working fine on external monitor but no display on laptop LCD. I know there are other threads but they get no display on external only, hence starting this thread. Any pointers will help.More replies

While playing GPU intensive games I had the feeling that the laptop does not reach its full capabilities.Even while using the recommended GPU settings by NVIDIA for the respective game, the games felt a bit sluggish.So I ran some benchmarks using the program Furmark. It looks like the laptop is programmed to throttle the GPU once the temperature reaches 65-67 °C.Can this be possible? This kinda sucks. I didn't pay for high end hardware just to have it throttled by my system's BIOS or whatever causes this.Moreover the fans don't always seem to run at full capacity before the temperature throttling kicks in.It also does not seem possible to control or monitor the fan speed by a third party program like MSI Afterburner. If this is supposed to be a laptop for gamers it kind of missed the mark here.
Make sure you don't have any power saving features turned on, I know Lenovo has a bunch of Power Management software installed by default. Are you using "Power Saver" power plan in Windows by any chance? I can max out the overclock in Afterburner and game for hours on end at 1337 MHz core, so I'm not having any throttling issues. However I did do a clean install of Windows so I have no Lenovo software running on mine.9 more replies

Hello there. I have a few questions regarding the recent release of BIOS update with version number CDCN37WW. Currently my BIOS is on version CDCN35WW. I was about to install it yesterday but did not because of several reasons. I read the instruction saying that I should put the BIOS settings at its default settings before installing the CDCN37WW update and there lies my problem. I bought the 15ISK version with 1TB HDD. A month ago I bought a 128GB SSD and did a clean install of Windows 10 on my new SSD. After booting into Windows 10 on my SSD in Legacy Mode, I format the partition in the 1TB HDD which houses my default installation of Windows 10 (the pre-installed Windows 10 by Lenovo). I did not completely wipe the HDD altogether and thus I still have the partitions created by Lenovo. The main issue that is stopping me from installing the update is my BIOS settiings. In BIOS boot submenu, I have it set to Legacy and then Legacy First so that it detects my SSD. UEFI does not detect my SSD. Default settings sets UEFI instead of Legacy. In conclusion, I cannot install the BIOS update even if I wanted to because I won't be able to boot into Windows 10 on my SSD once I change BIOS settings to default because UEFI (default settings is set to UEFI) does not detect my SSD. My questions are: -1. Does anyone have any solution or workaround to this problem ?2. Is it really compulsory to set the BIOS settings back default ? Or is it just a "... Read moreMore replies

Recently faced with some problems: while using touchpad, mouse pointer suddenly jumps to another place. Another problem is sound glitches(stuttering) and looks like it happens at the same time when the touchpad glitches. I've already tried to update drivers but problem still exists. Any solutions ?
Hi Dima,
Welcome to the Lenovo community!
Try updating the BIOS, then do a reset factory default on the BIOS. Also after you deactivate the touchpad, does the mouse cursor moves if you try using the touchpad?

Just got this laptop 2 months ago via amazon. I am a DJ and use Serato DJ software. I have only played 1 party with the new laptop. I am running windows 7 and windows 10 (difference partitions) Today I decided to build the overviews of my music collection. The software uses all 8 cores (8 songs at a time) to build them. I had the laptop running for about 2 hours. Everything was running fine. I even have the laptop slightly elavated in the back to get extra air flow. All of sudden the laptop shut off. I noticed that the charge light on the front of the laptop was no longer while. Power brick was pretty hot which seems normal for the intense core usage. Called tech support and went through some tech support, have to call back since there database was down. I suspect something on the laptop motherboard or memory etc went toast. This is my first Lenovo laptop ever. I have been a Dell guy for over 10 years, never ever had any hardware issues in 4 other laptops. What can I expect from Lenovo warranty service? Anyone have any other thoughts on what the heck could have happened. This is probably the most intense I have run the laptop. DJ with the software isn't as intense as building overviews. Think of it as rendering.More replies

I doub't that it was me, who damaged a screen, because i'm really gentle, when using it.I bought a notebook at the beginning of this year. It is still on a warranty. I already tried send on a warranty to a serivce for repair ( i think, company is called MEDION (at least for lenovo devices bought in Poland), but they send it back, with a reason that "they couldn't achive same problem in their test enviroment" which is really strange, because problem appears everytime notebook is working. Any suggestion what i can do? Should i send it back again on the warranty, hoping that this time, they will be able to see a defect? What was the root cause of a problem? I don't won't to leave it like that, because notebook wasn't cheap, and except a screen issue, notebook is amazing.

Halfway House, The (UK - DVD R2)
Our Marcus takes a trip to a Welsh inn and gets more than he bargained for.
A group of strangers arrive at the Halfway House Inn in rural Wales. Each with their own troubles, the group all have their own reasons to get away from their real lives. However the Halfway House is more than it seems and soon the strangers realise they all may have something in common that only this strange place can fix.
A 1944 Ealing Studio's black and white movie isn't exactly what fills my chosen movie watching schedule, so sitting down to watch this I was hoping to be won over. For the first twenty minutes or so I got pretty much what I expected—not to put it too bluntly but it was a collection of far too well spoken characters talking about their situations in an unconvincing fashion. The film was losing me by the second mainly due to the seemingly unending introductions to more and more characters. I wasn't at all sure where this was going? Then the diverse group arrived in Wales and things started to change.
There's a scenes where two characters are standing on a hill trying to find the inn. There's nothing on the horizon and suddenly, as if from nowhere the Halfway House appears where it simply wasn't before. Okay, now I was intrigued. Then when the characters all started arriving, the host, Rhys (Mervyn Johns) simply appeared out of nowhere too, acting totally normal and started saying things like "A lot of people that don't know where they're going find their way here" or implying that the Halfway House actually burnt down a year ago. Okay now The Halfway House had me. This sort of stuff awoke the Lost fan in me and so I started trying to put the mystery together.
During their stay here, the strangers let the hosts of the inn, Rhys and Gwyneth (Glynis Johns) in on their mixed up lives. How they lost their son in the war, or how a daughter wants her mother and father to get back together, or simply what route to take next in their lives. Each story has its spotlight and for every tale, Rhys and Gwyneth subtly nudge the troubled guests towards making the right decision to make their lives better (yeah, my Lost fan alter ego was loving this).
Of course there's also another motivation here and that's the war. The propaganda here is thick enough to swim in. Many a suggestion for the next step in these character's lives is to aid the war somehow. Don't sit on the fence, support the war, don't grieve for your failures go back to the war, not sure what to do after getting out of prison, why not go back to the army. Any excuse and it's the suggestion of maybe going to war. It's not subtle.
Without giving the game away to this sixty seven year old movie (do spoilers have a cut-off date?) the wrap up here is a satisfying blend of time travel, ghosts, inner turmoils overcome and some explosions (yup, there's that Lost connection again). For a bunch of characters I cared nothing for in the first twenty minutes, I'd actually grown to like before the end. I love seeing stories like this with a supernatural element being used to enlighten its characters and this was a fine example of how to do it pretty well, other than the fact these ghostly halfway house owners seem to be all about signing people up for going to war.
What more is there to say beyond saying it like it is. This is a British black and white movie from 1947. Now picture your initial take on that description and that's exactly what this DVD looks like. The transfer is pretty soft, is full of artefacts, scrapes and cloudy edges and exterior location shots look frickin' terrible. There's an odd wobble to the frame and from time to there's even a bit of warping (which is distracting when you notice it).
That said, none of this really takes away from the viewing experience (okay, well the warping does a bit). If this wasn't exactly what I expected from an old black and white movie, I'd be a little more critical but generally speaking this is an okay presentation with the unavoidable print damage on show.
Again 1947 B&W movie. Think how you'd expect it to sound and it's exactly that. Shrill children's voices, a slight hiss to everything and when louder sound effects show up they don't sound pleasant. Everything is how you'd expect. It's a relatively talky movie and the dialogue is clear, so that's one big hurdle passed but every other audio element is less than basic in its design.
No extras at all here. Not even a link to join the army, in case all that propaganda worked sixty seven years later.
The Halfway House wasn't my ideal movie to watch on a Monday night but it did win me over with its supernatural elements and the simple theme of people having the opportunity to overcome their troubles. The disc is barebones, has nothing flashy in regards to a clean-up and really all I can say to promote this to a modern crowd is Lost fans might get a bit of a kick out of this one, I know I did.

Nice review there, Marcus, and we think we might have watched this God knows how many years ago.
Whenever we think of an abode in that part of the world, we're always reminded of the Alas Smith & Jones commercial parody:
"Come home to a real fire...buy a house in the Welsh countryside."

Digital SLRs offer a step up in capabilities compared to a digital camera. Being able to use different lenses as and when the need arises gives you a lot more flexibility.
Before you buy a Digital SLR it is a good idea to spend time considering the different types of photographs you will take with it. This will help you decide on the lenses to buy when you first start out as well as helping you to determine what features are most important to you.

You may feel like you are spoilt for choice when it comes to buying a camera lens. There are so many different types of lens. Some lenses do specific jobs, such as wide angle lenses, while others give you a great deal of flexibility.
If you are new to buying camera lenses the key is to work out how you will use a lens. Simple questions to help you determine the right lens include will you need a lot of zoom power and will you be taking photographs in lowlight. It is also worth considering if you should buy two or three specialist lenses or one lens with the ability to capture a range of different types of photograph.

Who doesn't love marbles? Marble Math and Marble Math Jr. are two related apps by Artgig Apps. Combining marble rolling fun and math concepts was a brilliant idea and everyone here at ZiggityZoom loves the apps. The game designers at Artgig Apps come from a background of educational software development and they have succeeded in creating a fun and engaging learning experience.
We had tested the first version of Marble Math a while ago but now there are some new updates that make this a no-brainer buy for your children to help them learn and reinforce math concepts. The basic concept is to roll, or drag, your marble around a maze to find the correct answers to a given problem. Marble Math Jr. is geared to kids in the 5-8 age range, while Marble Math is for kids 9 -12 and up.
Our favorite aspects of Marble Math and Marble Math Jr. are:
- It is now Multi-Player enabling all the children in the family to play and to set custom profiles.
- Kids can create their own Avatar, with cute "swipe" and change features.
- Skill levels can be customized for each player.
- You get to choose your own Marble to play the games.
- There is the Option to play the game by "rolling" the marble by tilting your device or simply "drag" the marble around.
- For beginning readers, there is the ability to hear the Math problem.
- Combination of initial "word" problem and "number" problem as the problem is solved.
- Rewards and Surprises while playing the games.
The kids were especially enamoured with the rolling of the marbles to work the given problems. Well, actually, I was too. It is amazing how combining a fun play concept and a learning experience can encourage a child to want to learn. We highly recommend these two fun Math apps and for only $1.99 each they are quite a bargain.

Powercolor LCS HD 6990 4GB Review
Published by Capcom, Lost Planet 2 is the sequel to Lost Planet: Extreme Condition and uses the MT Framework 2.0 engine. The storyline takes place on the fictional planet E.D.N. III some 10 years after the events of the first game. This time, the snow cover is gone and has been replaced by a tropical landscape. With this new rendition of the game comes the ability to run it using either DirectX 9 or 11. Along with this ability comes the chance to use that new DX 11 hardware to effect. DX11 features in this game include tessellation, displacement mapping on water, bosses and player characters, soft body compute shaders on "Boss" characters, and wave simulation by way of DirectCompute. This gives you smoke that is lifelike and reacts to inputs, water that looks and reacts how you would expect it to in a "real life" situation, and "Boss" characters rendered with more depth and detail. If the latest graphics quality settings are not enough, NVIDIA has included support behind this game for both 3D Vision and 3D Vision Surround, which gives you 3D effects over multiple screens. There is no better way to see how a game will perform than to test it out. Capcom has made this easy with a downloadable benchmark that we will be using to test out a cross section of today's currently available performance video cards.
- 4x AA
- 16x AF
- Global Settings = High
- In-game benchmark run
Higher = Better
In most of the resolutions tested, the HD 6990 LCS is the highest performing AMD-based video card.

Please forgive the quality this grainy photograph. I took it many years ago, in 1972, when I was still a young teenager with my little Instamatic film camera. I was on the Circle Line cruise ship that circles Manhattan island with my sister, my brother-in-law, and my younger brother. It was an overcast summer day and were were enjoying the cooler temperatures on the ship and taking photographs as if we were tourists. I was excited to get a photo of this view of the World Trade Center Twin Towers that were almost completed. You can see cranes on the upper floors that were still under construction. I never thought I'd see these buildings destroyed 29 years later on September 11, 2001.
This is a photo of my two children, taken in 1989, as they were standing in the glass tunnel that connected World Trade Center 7 with the plaza of the Twin Towers. My husband worked in 7 World Trade Center, and I often took my son and daughter to meet my husband for lunch during their summer vacations. We would often visit the observation deck on Tower 2 afterwards and marvel at the view we had of New York City at such a great height! Building 7 faced Tower One, and it was the last building to completely collapse on September 11, 2001. Thankfully everyone from building 7 escaped without harm that day, but I am sure that, like my husband, those workers lost many friends and colleagues that worked in Towers 1 and 2, and perhaps even family members. My older brother was a retired FDNY Lieutenant, and he knew many of the 343 firemen that perished that day. The event of 9-11 touched us all very personally.
Every year I feel an overwhelming sadness as 9-11 approaches, and for a few days afterward. I can't begin to imagine the sadness of those that lost a loved one that day. The attacks of 9-11 were not attacks on New York City or Washington DC -- they were attacks on the United States of America. We should all never forget that hatred was the core of these attacks, and that hatred in return does not bring back those who were lost and it does not help to change the world.
Am I dreaming to believe that extreme love is the answer to extreme hatred? Can doing good, being kind, promoting peace and understanding in our own lives help change the world? After 9-11 there was such an outreach of sorrow and love to all we saw--for days and weeks America pulled together as one. I am sad to see much of that sensitivity has disappeared in the ten years since. On this anniversary I want to examine my own life to see if I have kept the promises I made to myself as I watched those towers fall. Didn't we all promise we would appreciate our lives more, be kinder to those around us, and not take anything for granted? One of the things I decided on that fateful day was that I wanted to enjoy my own city more and go to all the places I had left for "someday." Seeing those towers fall made me realize that we can never take anything or anyone for granted. This blog has been an end product of going out and exploring New York City more closely
The following photos were taken by a co-worker of my husband, from a hotel restaurant window located across the street from the ground zero construction site. She graciously gave me permission to use them in this post. They have a wonderful perspective of the ground zero and all the new construction that one does not see from the ground.
I took the photos below of a beautiful memorial outside Saint Ephram's Church in Brooklyn, New York, in remembrance to the nine parishioners that lost their lives on 9-11.
The statue is called "Jesus taking the Towers to His Heart," made by the The Demetz Art Studio.
I'm linking up today with Mary at Little Red House for Mosaic Monday.

GR - "Entire thing a misunderstanding on our part"
Good reddens. I feared the worst for a second there. Hopefully the decline of DS3 sales will educate them on how gamers feel about microtransactions.
A little to close to his face for my liking.
I really hope he has learnt from this... don't treat your customers as just a source of money to squeeze as hard as you can.
Try good service and products instead, it will get you a lot further.
This made me laugh.
"When previously we read the word "all" in the first statement, we took it to mean "all". Today's revisit to the topic has made us recognise the error. We should have instead ignored the word entirely."
Reading through the articles related, I'd say Jorgensen is the one to blame for the confusion, not GR, OXM or anyone else. He said, and I quote (from the original source - http://www.oxm.co.uk/50616/...
"We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way".
What other way is there to interpret this than "we are building micro-transactions into all of our games"?
This is just another case of stupid spokesperson says stupid thing, then retracts stupid thing, defending his retraction by claiming the public 'misunderstood' him.

In strange yet true developments, I have two friends from my hometown visiting Portland on vacation right now. Tis adorable. I don't typically admit this, but I'm originally from the South Shore of Long Island and my accent is in full bloom once more from being around my friends. Commence TAWKING AND WAWKING AND CAWFEE without any deep prompting from excitement or libations.
Said friends aren't vegan, so I'm not breaking out the normal must-go-to Portobello and vegan bakeries routine. One friend, however, is allergic to eggs, and the other is a pesceterian, so they're both cool with vegan options – which has included obligatory $1.25 vegan corndogs * at Hungry Tiger Too this past Wednesday and perusing food carts. I haven't been joining in on many of their tourist activities as I'm working during the day, but we have strolled Last Thursday and Alberta a few times, Powells, and hit a few carts – pretty damn Portland. Isn't it nice that the food carts (and that IFC show which I warned my houseguests to watch in preparation but to never mention in town) have finally given tourists something more to do in this city besides drink Stumptown coffee, sip microbrews, eat donuts and plan hiking adventures?
With that, it's hard being a food blogger and playing a tourist in this über hip city – you have to be incredibly discreet with your photography so you're not mistaken as either role in public, jeez.
And before they depart, they plan on getting hitched at the 24 Hour Church of Elvis window after a couple rounds of Ms. Pac Man and Visos at Ground Kontrol. Oh my god, what should I wear?!
*Truthfully, I've gotten to the point where I have ordered a corndog, but I can't bring myself to eat it. As much as I can get down with pancake batter, I just don't have any desire to eat veggie dogs.

Life in Christian County,
This profusion of flowers grows at the Hopkinsville - Christian County Library in a block of soil, surrounded by a bench and the walls of the building. The bed used to have a nice little dogwood tree in it, but for some reason it was removed and some puny, pointy shrubs were planted instead. They looked forlorn last winter, but this summer, flowers have filled the empty space, and indeed, have nearly grown over the shrubs and bench.
On a Hopkinsville forum that I read, there's been occasional discussion about whether the library is good enough. Like most libraries, it does the best it can within budgetary constraints. When I moved here, I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the facility and the scope of the collection. I was used to military and small town libraries that were much more limited than this one.
