Provided you have a WiFi adapter installed in your notebook, you will need to turn on WiFi in your notebook then sign on to an available wireless network. I suggest downloading your user manual and reading up on this subject for more information. If you do not see any wireless networks, you may need to purchase a Wireless Router from your internet service provider. If you do not have a WiFi card in your computer you will need to contact Lenovo directly to purchase a compatible card for your specific notebook.
Also - make sure you have a good anti virus software suite installed before you go online.
Good luck.
I'm using lenovo G580(20157) wireless is connected to wifi network sometimes it disconnected automatically and shows no internet access while disconnecting and connecting to particular wifi network shows internet access but sometimes without system restart I'm unable to use internet.

Hi Durgaprasad ,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums
I?m sorry to inform you that the Wireless feature is not working as expected in your G580. I suggest you to download the driver again and while installing right click and select ?Run as administrator? option as doing this will install the complete driver without any error.
NOTE: Please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the model no. as G580 select the exact model.

So I'm trying desperetly to help my friend fix his laptop, and I'm running into huge issues. My friend is running a Lenovo G580, and cannot connect to the Wi-Fi whatsoever. When you look down at the connections, it shows a wired connection symbol, and it says that there's no connections to be found. Now I know for a fact that this laptop can use wireless, it was used probably a week or two ago by my friends mother. Now, it can't seem to connect to any wireless networks. I've tried just about everything, turning off power saving, deleting the drivers (which we can't do, as the wireless drivers aren't appearing under network adapter), nothing has changed it. The laptop is running Windows 10, and when we go to Network Settings, there's no WiFi tab, there's Proxy, VPN, etc. I really need help with this.More replies

I upgraded my friends HP laptop to Windows 10. The issue now is I can't enable Wifi. The card is recognized correctly in Device manager and no issues is found with it. It looks like it is fine. However in the Network Settings WLAN is set to "Off" and when I try to turn it on it always jumps right back to off. eg. I can't enable it.
HP is now help as they clearly state any laptop bought prior to specific date in 2013 will not get any driver updates from their side for windows 10. (Guys, never buy HP again please...). And updating through device manager only tells me it's the newest driver available.
The Wifi card i Broadcom 4313GN card. I searched for win 10 drivers but did not find anything.They only offer linux drivers on their homepage...
So can anyone either provide a solution to the issue or link to a win 1' driver for this wifi card?
I had a similar issue were I was stuck in Aeroplane mode on a cleanly installed W10. Turned out I had to uninstall it from the HID's in Device manager. It's worth checking that he's not stuck in it too. Search for drivers in Windows 7, from the HP website and you'll most likely resolve the issue.0 more replies

Any other suggestions or maybe its time for an I7 NUC for the MRS.
It is disabled in the BIOS? Is it disabled via the NICs software?

Hi Ruben_Palacios ,
Welcome to the Community Forums.
First to make sure that Airplane mode (page 6) is not enabled, there is a hotkey on top of the keyboard with an icon of a plane. Check if that would enable your wifi .
Else you can try to set the default of the BIOS ,
Access the BIOS by turning off the laptop and then use the Novo button (item2 page 9) on the left side next to power to turn it on. Novo menu would appear to offer BIOS set up , F9 to load defaults F10 to save and exit .
Load up windows and check if there is a wifi icon at the base of the screen.
Check also on device manager if there is any yellow mark or black down arrow to indicate any need to reinstall drivers from the support website.
Update us how it goes.
Hello, today I was messing around with "Network and sharing Center" when I accidentally clicked something along the lines of 'disable' beside WiFi. Now it is completely gone and I have no idea how to get it back, I have done extensive Google-ing but couldn't find an answer. I am now using a wired ethernet cable instead but I need my wifi back as soon as possible.

How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
I have a Sony Vaio with a switch on the front that turns WIRELESS on/off. Whenever I turn the switch 'off', I get a pop-up box that says something like 'Alert: Wireless has been turned off'. The pop-up also had an option to turn off this notification. I turned off this notification a week ago but now i would like to turn it back on. I have been looking at a lot of settings on my computer but I don't know how to turn it back on.
Does any one know how to turn the notification back on?
Thanks in advance.
Hello and Welcome to 7Forums!
Try Right-Clicking the Taskbar>Properties >Customize(button)> And select the notification from there!
I have Win 7 Home Premium.
Is there an easy way to disable my wireless connection so that (a) it does not enable itself after a reboot, and (b) I don't need to implement the complete process to re-enable the wireless?
Under normal circumstances, the re-enable after a reboot is fine. I can disconnect WiFi from the system tray, and it reconnects after reboot.
But sometimes, I might want wireless to remain disabled after reboot. For example, if I'm doing a database restore, and the database starts synching after a reboot (such as Evernote), it could cause problems :-)
At the moment, I simply switch off the router until the database restore is complete.
Just don`t let it connect.
Doesn`t the laptop have an on off switch for wireless ? Most laptops do.
I'm new to 7 (all my desktops are XP Home).
With XP, the OS just connects automatically to my home wireless network.
However with this netbook, I have to do it manually everytime I reboot - it's a real pain.
Not sure if this OS, hardware or both.
Can anyone advise ?
I've looked at services.msc WiFi service and it's set to automatic already ....
PS Also, is there a way to get 7 to boot straight to desktop, without having to click on user icon or enter password ?
The reason these 2 are important to me is that this netbook is basically a music server, so when I come in from work etc., I'd like to just power up the netbook then walk off and play stuff via my network (Squeezebox) players

Dear Friendz, I am using Lenovo Y460 laptop.I was able to switch on WiFi earlier but it is not working now.I think it happened earlier also but somehow by updating relevant drivers the issue fixed (did not remember exactly). Now since few days in my system tray ?Intel ®My WiFi Technology? icon is there and when I click/right click on it all the options are grayed out due to which I could not enable WiFi. But one option ?Open Intel® My WiFi Utility? is allowed to select and when I opened, the profiles option is again grayed out and it is displaying message that ?Network Adapter Not Found?.Then I went to Control Panel---->Devices--->Device Manager--->Network Adapter--->Intel(R) WiFi Link 1000 BGN---->and updated the drivers here. Restarted the machine but issue did not fix. Then deleted that Intel(R) WiFi Link 1000 BGN from Network Adapters and deleted drivers (C---->Program Files--->Intel---->WiFi---->Drivers)?downloaded from internet and uploaded drivers again (C---->Program Files--->Intel---->WiFi---->Drivers) then restarted the machine again no use. I also updated S32 and S64 in Win7 as I could see one folder name called drivers in C drive.( C---->Drivers--->Intel Wireless WiFi Link Driver--->Win7--->S32, S34 Folders) I am now totally confused?..Lenovo support does not want to help and they are telling to sign up for extending warranty otherwise asking to take this machine to...

hi K. Sharath,
From this microsoft article, it looks like the Intel My WiFi technology is not compatible with the Intel(R) WiFi Link 1000 BGN card and is only applicable to certain types of Intel Wi-FI adapters.
To turn ON the Wi-Fi capability of the Lenovo Y460, you will need to:
1. Slide the physical wi-fi switch to the ON position
- Link to picture
2. Press Fn+F5 to enable the wireless card (ensure Current Status is set to "ON")
- Link to picture
The Lenovo Energy Management Driver must be installed for the function keys to work
3. If same problem, boot into the BIOS by pressing F2 on startup and ensure that the WLAN Device is Enabled.

Let me know how it goes.

I have a problem, normally I press Fn and F5 to bring up the window to enable/disable Wireless Lan and Bluetooth. But it's suddenly stopped working and I cannot switch on my Wireless Lan. This is on IdeaPad Y580 running Windows 7. 1. When I press Fn F5 no window opens. 2. When I press Fn F6 my track pad is enabled/disabled as normal, although I do not see the notification on screen. 3. When I press the Fn and volume or brightness controls, they work perfectly, but again I do not notification on screen, the bars showing level of volume or brightness. 4. Also the One Touch Recovery and One Key Theater buttons are not working. But the audio Mute button is working. 5. I have uninstalled the Lenovo Energy Management software and reinstalled it but no difference. 6. I have checked the BIOS and Wireless Lan is enabled. 7. I also saw that in Task Manager I cannot see utility.exe running. This is really causing me problems, can anyone suggest a fix? Thanks, Dave.
Go to Solution.
Finally fixed it... 1. I uninstalled and reinstalled the Lenovo Energy management Software - No difference. 2. I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers for the Wireless LAN - No difference. 3. I noticed that the OneKey Recovery button wasn't working, so I decided to uninstall and reinstall the OneKey Recovery software...it worked! 4. In Task Manager I can now see that utility.exe is running as below: Now I have no idea why the OneKey Recovery software would affect the Lenovo Wireless Device Settings?

I've just installed a wireless PCI adaptor (Tenda W322P 11N) in my desktop PC but I can't 'enable' it - every time I double click it starts to enable then stops and leaves it disabled with no warning or error messages.
The system is definitely seeing it as it's listed in Device Manager, and if I bring up Network Connections (using ncpa.cpl) it's listed and shown as disabled. Why would windows stop it from being enabled??
I've tried downloading new drivers from the manufacturers site in case the drivers on the disk were old - no difference. I uninstalled it and removed the drivers and then re-booted so windows would use it's own drivers - no difference.
It seems the system has a problem with it, but surely ONE of the drivers would work if it was a driver problem?
the software driver on their site is up to version 4.
If you are running on the driver off the disk it may be problematic.

Hey guys,
There is a difficulty i am facing recently in my girlfriend's house only(in all other places it works fine).
I have recently established a WiFi connection for her to use on her phone. It worked great the first day. It continues to work perfect on her mobile. On my net book, though, i can not see WiFi access point in her house.
It appears randomly for several minutes, i try to connect, it does not want to and then the access point disappears for some uncertain period of time. From time to time it appears and works fine from than on but disappears again if computer goes to sleeping mode...
Do you have any ideas what could it be?
guys, anybody. please have a look. this is serious for me. thanks....
I notice under my WiFi connection properties there is a tick box to use Intel Connection Settings and a Configure button. What are the advantages (if any) of using this and what are the recommended settings? I'm only sing 2.4GHz WiFi at present.More replies
So. at random times my WIFI gets disabled and when I hover over the symbol it says wifi networks available. When I go into the network list it just goes into a loop that never loads the list.
the none of the network list services can be restarted/stopped/started and in device manager I can not disable/uninstall/re-install my wifi adapter.
The only way to re-enable my wifi is to completely restart my computer with a forced shutdown (hold the power button) because normal methods go into loops that never end.
In the past I did fix it for an extended period of time by downloading the most recent .net Framework, this seemed to solve the problem for months until now.
If my computer is not right next to the router and is idle for a while, the wifi connection drops. I have to "Open Network & Sharing Center", "Change adapter settings", disable and re-enable to reconnect. It's not a router issue since all other devices connect just fine.
Hi: The only suggestion I can offer would be to see if unchecking the 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' box on the Power Management tab for the wireless card in the device manager, resolves the problem.4 more replies

I thought it cud be BIOS configuration problem. But cudn't figure it out.

and welcome to the Forum
Where did you get the driver? . . Did you install the Notebook Software and Chipset first?
You can go to the Dell support site, enter your Service Tag Number and download the drivers
See this for the order they should be installed:
Okay, it's now 13 Sep 2015 and I went around in circles to figure this out. I saw the same issues, to the point of knowing the driver was installed bu tthe Netgear tools never enable the WNDA3100v2, and one cannot manually enable it either.Also tried a USB A6200 device, with the same results.However, I did make this work, and it's kind of simple in my case. I was running the free Zone Labs Firewall & A/V package. And who's A/V package do they use you ask? Kaspersky! Kaspersky has a known issue with allowing proper installation of Netgear USB wireless adapters. So I followed the recommended guidense of a full uninstall of any Netgear WNDA3100v2 and A6200 drivers and software. Then a full uninstall of Zone Labs tools, reboot the computer, then reinstalled the WNDA3100v2 software. Followed the directions, recognition of the USB WiFi adapter was instant. Changed the device setting for being Enabled to auto connect if wired adapter is not connected, and here we are fully functional.Of course now I need to reinstall Zone Labs software, which according to the write up I read at Zome Labs, it should all just work now.Try this method if nothing else seems to work.

I'm pretty confused, and I'm hoping someone here can help me. Every time I restart/turn on the computer, the wireless adapter turns on for a couple of seconds then shuts back off.
Then I have to manually press the adapter button for it to turn back on. I reinstalled my Windows and that didnt fix it. The wireless works as it should after I turn it back on.
I checked the power settings, in the properties for the adapter, And i have set it to always be on.

Let me start by explaining what led to my problem.
I work for an electric utility, and we issue Panasonic Toughbook laptops to our linemen containing our mobile mapping and AVL (Automatic Vehicle Locating) software. They are all running Windows XP Professional SP3. Our AVL software requires an internet and VPN connection to our AVL server at the office (we currently use Verizon Air Cards and the Cisco VPN client to achieve this). Since implementing this, we have found that Cisco VPN and the Verizon Air Cards do not work well when the wifi network adapters are turned on (or enabled). When they are turned off (disabled) everything works nicely. We can't just disable the wifi NIC's and call it good either because our user's need the faster wifi connections to perform database syncs in the mornings (via hotspots inside each garage bay). Once they are all synced up and out of range of our wireless network, the wifi NIC's are no longer needed. Since the wifi NIC's and Air Cards don't get along, we have been having our users turn the NIC's off using a hardware switch on the Toughbooks cassis. However, some of our older models (CF-29's to be exact) do not have these hardware switches. Our solution was to create two batch files and place them on the users' desktops; one that turns the wifi NIC on, and one that turns it off.
This brings you up to my current problem...

I have an Insignia 8" tablet that I use to listen to an internet radio station. WiFi connection to my 2Wire 3801HGV router. I have it powered by the AC charger. I have the display to turn off after 5 minutes, never to go into sleep mode when powered by AC. After the 5 minutes the display is turned off, the music continues as expected and will continue for hours. But if I try to do anything I loose my WiFi.
Right after the screen is shut off I can enable it again with a stroke. Then the music stops. I no longer have internet access.
Network settings says I still am connected but somewhere the connection is broken. I disconnect from my router and then try to reconnect and it will not. I get, Checking Network Requirements, Can't connect to this Network. The only way I have been able to get connected is to do a restart.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I have not found any settings that have been useful. All it should be doing is shutting off the screen. Not go into any other sleep or power down state.

I need in urgent. Thankyou in advance.
Sorry to hear about your bad experience with lenovo. I'm afraid that you simply need to abandon Lenovo and go with another manufacturer. I have an under warranty G series laptop that lost its boot parameters. I had previously made backup copies of the OS and a 'repair' disc. Neither of which worked. I called Lenovo support and was informed that I must sned them the laptop and only THEY could reinstall the OS. I was also told that any recovery media for my product was 'UNAVAILABLE'. Sad that they cannot simply sned me media to reload it myself. Instead, they must reload it (obviously they have means to do it but simply will not share it with me). I will not ever purchase a Lenovo product and I would advise you to do the same, and advise any friends to do the same. I am doing so and have learned an expensive lesson. I paid more to get Levovo thinking their reputation was one of support, only to discover it is pointless. I should have just bought a cheaper 'non-Lenovo' product. I plan to go on a tirade and post as much information webwide as possible and deter as many as I can before they get screwed over like I did.Sorry you got screwed too,HatingLenoONO3 more replies

She then plugged it in for the night but it never started again. When I have it plugged in the light on the front is solid white. There is no light at all when ONLY on battery. It does not start when the battery is removed and plugged in. The system is about 1 1/2 years old and to my knowledge the battery was fine. I have not seen any charging problems from Windows. I purchased a new AC adapter but that did not fix it. Does this seem like a power button problem or a motherboard problem? Thanks,Chris

hi chberu,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Please try removing the AC Adapter and Battery
then hold down the Power Button for at least 10 sec.
Then Reconnect only the Ac adapter and see if that will fix it, Then reconnect the battery.
Also try turning it on with the RAM and Harddrive removed and see if that will show any difference on how the unit starts.
If the same problem, even if not Battery is connected, I suggest you contact Lenovo Technical Support for Hardware Assistance or Contact a local tech to check the system board for any issue.

Hello,I have a brand new G580 with 2X USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 Port. The 2.0 port works fine but the 3.0 ports don't show any reaction. The Harware manager indicates an error for the the USB 3.0 eXtensible host controller but refreshing the driver showes no effect. Any ideas if that is an Hardware- or only a driver problem? Thanks in advanceStefan
Go to Solution.
hi Stefan,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
The USB 3.0 port requires a driver for it to work (unlike the USB 2.0 that is plug and play). For Windows 7, install the Intel USB 3.0 Driver v188.8.131.52 - http://tinyurl.com/c7e7lw6
Let me know if this doesn't fix it.

I bought a Lenovo g580 model 2689 laptop back in august, and it has now stopped working. Whenever I try to switch it on, lights come on, it makes booting noises, the fan works, but nothing happens, just a black screen. I know the monitor works because it has turned on once since I've had this problem. Please help, I have a presentation next week and can't access my work!
Are you able to use the Lenovo One-Key recovery?

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me with this.
My Levono G580 has been working ok but tried to turn on this morning and nothing happened. I've just got home and tried again but still nothing.
I've had a look on a few sites after googling my issue but the only thing I could find is to press the power 10 times and hold it in on the last press for 30 seconds or to remove the battery and try with just the psu but nothing.
Any ideas guys?
I've just heard the power supply giving off really faint buzz like a second hand on a clock when it's plugged into the laptop, still no power though

Hi Shadowraze ,
Welcome to the Community Forums.
Ultrabay swappable drive bay in the ThinkPad range of laptop computers and some of IdeaPad Y Series laptops. Graphics cards would not be recognized by the BIOS unlike y410p/y510p .
I was having hard disk issues with my G580, so I decided to back up my files and restore it to its factory settings using OneKey. The hard disk issues must have affected OneKey because the restoration gets stuck at 49%. I need the backup.wsi so I can put it on a flash drive and restore it from there. Thanks in advance.
Hi Jakesloan15,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I?m sorry to hear that the OKR (One Key Recovery) is getting stuck at 49% while performing backup. If the computer is booting to windows the only available option to backup the OS (Operating System) installed in the computer is by creating the Recovery Media in a USB Flash drive. Below are the steps for the same:

Hi nikunjm022 ,
Welcome to the Community Forums.
When did it started happening ? If this would be a power management settings then a system restore to go back to a previous working date may help.
Try to reset BIOS settings by turning on the pc using the Novo key (item5 page 2) and choose BIOS settings , F9 to reset F10 to save and exit .
You can also try updating the touchpad driver from the support site.
We are not eliminating probable affectation of a grounded battery , but would it also happen with an inserted battery while plugged with the adapter?
Update us how things go.
Hello, I'm currently running a I3 3120M on my G580, model 20150. My question is whether if I can upgrade my CPU to a I7 3612QM, the G2 socket model, and how much will battery life be affected by the I7? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Welcome To Lenovo Community
As per the technical specification link you can upgrade to 3rd generation Intel® Core? i7-3520M
Battery backup will not be having much difference
Do give this a try and let us know

So I bought a new CPU for my old G580 laptop. I wanted to upgrade from the B960 it has right now (it's the 20150 model). The new CPU is a i5-3320M as it's listed as a compatible part on both the downloadable PDF and the PartsLookup website (I checked with my serial number as well). I changed the CPU, installed thermal paste, everything, but to no avail. Won't even enter BIOS. The "on" LED flashes for 10 seconds, then it shuts down. Installed the old CPU again - it boots without problems. New CPU again - no BIOS, nothing. I have updated my BIOS to the latest possible version (version 5ECN96WW (V9.01), as the newer version shows a "Error 255 - TDK Library Initialization Failed". I just don't know what to do anymore. Could be a faulty CPU, but I doubt it. The only difference is that the old CPU is Sandy Bridge, and the new is Ivy Bridge. But it's shown as "compatible" with the laptop everywhere. It's a shame really...More replies

hi gbar,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
About a Lenovo Factory Reset.
You just Turn it off and Press this button
This will boot your system with option for Recovery.
just follow the prompts and you good to go.
Just remember that this will Delete everything on the current OS and rebuild a new one (Dataloss)
About Keeping the system Clean. For me....
CCleaner will help you Remove all unnecessary files on the system.
And a good Antivirus Would really help keeping the system from Viruses.
Hope this helps

Hello! I have a G580 (2189) with an i7-3632QM processor. I currently have 8gb of RAM and after running wmic MEMORYCHIP, I realize I have 2 slots with 4gb in each.

I have found a kit called: CT2KIT102464BF160B and from what I can find, this seems to fit my computer. Can anyone confirm that? It would be great. And just out of curiosity, are there any 16gb memories available for DDR3L? Since it seems like my processor can handle 32gb but I only have two slots, I would need 16gb in each.

My daughter's G580 shows no signs of life. No lights of any kind. I tried the "remove battery and charger cord, press the power button once per second 10 times and then hold for 30", but it made no difference. I tested the the P/S and it's putting out a solid 20.5v. I removed the keyboard and the keyboard bezel and removed the power jack/USB board and checked continuity through the board. Everything seems okay. Is there anything else I could check? I'd hate to think the motherboard is shot. Thanks!

For as long as I remember my Lenovo G580 would randomly stop recieving an internet connection from my wifi, leaving it still connected but without the ability to go online. I have been solving this problem by disconnecting and recconecting from the wifi, however this has been a temporary solution as the problem keeps coming back. I know this is a problem with the computer because it never happens with the other lenovo laptops in the house nor the phones connected to the same wifi.
Im monitering this post so if you reply expect a response very soon

Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
The G580 models requires a minimum of a 65 watts, 20 VDC, charger/adapter. The CPA-A065 model you have shown is compatible with those requirements. If you can find a 90 watt charger, that would be even better. The 90 watt will run cooler and charge faster when the laptop is in use.
Page #115 of your model's Hardware Maintenance Manual lists the 65 and 90 watt chargers for your model. Here is that manual for your reference.....

I have a Lenovo G580 with Windows 8. I have a weird problem with audio. If the default audio is set as internal speakers and I plug in my headphones the sound just keeps coming from the internal speakers. But if I set the headphones as default, I can switch between the speakers and headphones as I want and there is no problem if only I play music from my computer.
If I try to play something from my browser, however, the sound only comes from the internal speakers and connecting the headphones does nothing. Except (and this is where it gets weird) if I play something from my computer first using the headphones. Then I can play anything from the browser and hear it through the headphones as long as I don't plug them out. If I plug them out, the sound switches back to the internal speakers and trying to plug in the headphones again doesn't do anything. So I have to play something from my computer again with the headphones plugged in and then switch to my browser to again play everything through my headphones.
What's wrong with it? Any way to make it work as it should work?

Hi Puneet,
Welcome to Lenovo Forums.
We are really sorry to hear about the issue you are facing.
Firstly, Check BIOS? Sometimes a BIOS has fan speed controls.
This is normal as the game is running and full GPU is utilized, if the temp increases more than normal. I suggest you to use the Laptop by placing it on a flat surface for good ventilation.
Please go through the below link to understand about Safe Temperature range for CPU?

I usually have my G580 laptop hardwired to my router, so I wasn't checking wireless connectivity on a regular basis. But it won't connect anymore (it used to work).

hi rick8864,
Just to verify, when you connect to the Netgear accesspoint, are you getting one of the errors below?
Windows was unable to connect (Win7)
Can't connect to this network (Win8)
Things that you can try:
1. Reboot the router
2. Remove the Wi-Fi network and try connecting again.
If you have Win7, navigate to Control Panel (icon views) > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Wireless Networks and delete the Netgear accesspoint.
- Link to picture
If you have Win8, right click on the Wi-Fi network and choose Forget Network
- Link to picture
3. Uninstall the Wi-Fi Adapter by navigating to Device Manager Network Adapters. When finished, scan for hardware changes and reconnect to the wireless accesspoint then observe.

In my attempt to reinstall my Lenovo G580 audio drivers I deleted one and I can't find it. I think it might be a Dolby Advanced Audio driver because I'm pretty sure thats what my computer has. When I looked at device manager there were orignally 2 drivers under "Sound, Video, and Game Controllers". After I deleted one, the driver that was left is Intel(R) Display Audio. I hope that helps identify the missing driver. Also I would like a download link to the Intel(R) Display Audio driver because i will need to reinstall that one as well.
Im almost definently monitering this post constantly so if you reply expect a response very soon
Thanks for the help

A friend had a malware attack, a beeping error on Chrome about a Windows Defender error running Win 10. She managed to shut down Chrome and then shut off her computer. She tried turn back on, but it would not. I managed to start the computer by removing battery , AC power and the bios battery. The only way to turn on is to remove all of the above and then reinsert bios battery and connect AC power. The keyboard does not work properly, types mostly 6s and a few other characters (ie the shift key types an 's'). No wifi, no CD, no mouse touchpad. I can get into Windows 8, which I restored from factory partiton. Did not affect the operation. I assumed that the bios must have been over written, so I downloaded an update, but it will not install. Program goes through the motions, but the old bios is still there. I am using an external USB KB and mouse. I still can not get into the bios. Is there a way to "force" a bios update?More replies

A new federal requirement that states fund 'Jane Doe' rape kits is now officially on the books. Statistics collected by the Justice Department in 2006 estimated that only 41% of sexual assaults are reported in the United States and the 'Jane Doe' kits, hospital-administered kits that are sealed and identified with a number, not a name, are meant to lessen the stigma many women feel about reporting sexual assaults to police. According to Carey Goryl, the executive director of the International Association of Forensic Nurses, "Sometimes the issue of actually having to make a report to police can be a barrier to victims, and this will allow that barrier to cease, to allow the victim to think about it before deciding whether to talk to police."
Jane Doe rape kits are already available in Massachusetts and a few counties in Maryland, and though every state will have to provide the kits (valued at $800 each) for rape victims in order to receive federal funding under the Violence Against Women Act, it is up to each individual state to determine how long the rape kit is preserved.
In Cecil County, Maryland, kits are kept for 90 days. The FBI has been recommending Jane Doe rape kits since at least 1999, and previous survivors of rape are equally supportive of the measure. Kathleen, a rape survivor who was interviewed by the AP, thinks "Just to let people know this option is out there is good, to say, 'It's OK, you don't have to prosecute if you don't want to."

One of our dearest clients requested us to design her anniversary party. She and her beau were celebrating 10 years together. We created a Glamorous Hollywood event that included this sweetheart table set-up that featured this fabulous lighted sign. We got the idea from 100 Layer Cake. You can check them out here:
Materials needed:
30 bulb strand of lights (Cost Plus World Market) They have lots of varieties, we went with frosted white, but they also come in a wide array of colors.
Black foam core board
Wrapping paper
Exacto knife
16 feet of ribbon
1. Draw out design on back of foam core board, then mark every four or five inches where each bulb is supposed to go, making sure every bulb is used.
2. Use the exacto knife to cut out holes that are the size of the screw threads on the light bulb, no bigger.
3. Plan out the path of the bulbs in your design, so you don't back track and run out of wire length. This is particularly important if you are using two boards with one strand of lights.
4. Unscrew first bulb, placing the socket on the back side of your first hole. Re-screw in bulb with foam core board sandwiched in between the socket and bulb.
5. You have to tighten the bulb extremely tight in order to make full contact with the socket or else it won't light.
6. Repeat until all the lights are screwed into their sockets through the foam core board.
7. Decorate with paper and hang with ribbon.
8. Congratulations, you've created a beautiful one-of-a-kind sign that everyone will be asking you about.

Sitges has always been a place that has enchanted artists, tourists and visitors from all over. For many people, the secret lies in its light and its almost 300 sunny days a year. The Nature has been generous to Sitges, as it has the privilege of being located on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea and protected by the Garraf Park Mountains. Culturally, the legacy is extraordinary. Art is alive and traditions are maintained with modernity. Sitges has preserved important medieval references and the quaintness of the old village of farmers and fishermen. It has a cosmopolitan character thanks to the diversity of its population, where more than 70 different nationalities live together, which is certified with the existence of four international nearby schools. Now, in the twenty-first century, Sitges is based on creativity, talent and innovation, but without losing its roots. Sitges is a city that attracts and seduces.

After attending a Physical Education Conference and learning from a specific presentation, I decided to include some yoga sessions with the lower grades as part as our "Body Management Unit."
The cool part of doing this activity was that students were learning different yoga posses as we read the stories. Some of these stories came from the Cosmic Kids site.
We also read a book called "I am Yoga" by Peter Reynolds and students followed up with the posses very well.
