Feeling REALLY stupid - Re: F30 install problem on Lenovo x131e

Boy is a power issue! My rats nest of power cables for all my power adapters for all the notebooks on my desk... The adapter for the new notebook was unplugged and I was doing the install off of battery.  So just before the install finished, it shut off from not enough electrons.  And of cou

Try to boot on battery only (w/o adapter) and on AC adapter only (w/o battery). May be this is a power issue since it is able to start booting. Memory problems usually lead to BSOD, not power off. 21.06.2019, 18:56, "Robert Moskowitz" : > I am very concerned that the Lenovo x131e is bricked. > >

I am very concerned that the Lenovo x131e is bricked. I put in the Win10 HD.  It starts to boot and the windows logo starts spinning and the system promptly shuts down. It may be memory, and I will have to see if I have any matching memory here (see if it uses the same as my x120e which I hav

Looks like internal hardware problem. Unplug the power adapter and battery and then try to remove and install again the drive, memory and other removable parts. 21.06.2019, 04:18, "Robert Moskowitz" : > This is really bad.  It won't get past the Lenovo logo screen with the > USB CD/DVD drive att

F30 install problem on Lenovo x131e

I have a refurbished x131e.  I pulled the 320G HD and installed an empty 500GB SSD.  From a USB SD I started the x64 NetInstall. In the install process, I set my location (Detroit), changed the host name, left the drive setup as default.  Then I selected a bunch of software.  I selected the Xf
