RESOLVED - Lenovo Thinkpad P1 freezing (1/2)
Просмотров 83 тыс.5 лет назад
See follow up video here: ruclips.net/video/XqzaFUEdvyo/видео.html My Thinkpad P1 is freezing sporadically, requiring me to power off the computer by holding the power button for 5 seconds. This can happen any time from 2 minutes after booting the computer, to many hours after booting. After one freeze has occurred, it is common for another freeze to occur within minutes after hard-rebooting th...

    I'm starting to get these issues on the p1 GEN 5 which is a year old. I purchased it for CAD & 3D work. Recently it keeps freezing on me mid use a few times a day. Mind you this was an $8,436 AUD investment for this machine because I wanted the Nvidia RTX A5500 GPU. I'm currently going through their tech support and I have outright asked for a refund. Luckily I paid for an additional 5 year warranty on this machine because a year to the date, it started playing up.

    I recently encountered the same problem on my Lenovo Thinkpad e590 (3 1/2 years old). As a first step, I verified that all pending software updates had been completed by running Lenovo vantage. The problem still continued, and in the next few days it became too severe. I noticed that the laptop would be functional in the morning for the first 45 minutes, but once I started working on some CPU intensive tasks, it became too vulnerable. At this point, just moving the laptop or even typing something would cause the "freeze" issue. I contacted Lenovo support and explained the issue, but since the laptop was not covered under an extended warranty, I did not get any useful information from them. They insisted on "reimagining" the machine with the Lenovo image as the first step in resolving the issue. However, I was convinced that it had nothing to do with the OS or drivers because the symptoms were more related to hardware. Finally, I thought of doing some troubleshooting myself and realized it could be related to the heatsink/cooling system, though the fan seemed to be working as expected. Finally, with the help of some troubleshooting videos available on RUclips, I decided to open the laptop to have a look. After a couple of days of sustained effort, I found the root cause. I was convinced that a deteriorating layer of "thermal paste" was causing the issue. The thermal paste, I learned, is critical to maintaining an optimal temperature inside the unit. It is applied on top of the CPU and GPU to transfer heat between the heatsink and the motherboard. The most accurate information about this is available on the following page, provided by Intel. www.intel.com.au/content/www/au/en/gaming/resources/how-to-apply-thermal-paste.html#:~:text=Thermal%20Paste%20%2D%20A%20silvery%2Dgray,designed%20to%20dissipate%20that%20heat To my luck, I found a decently rated thermal paste on Amazon for just A$5.88. www.amazon.com.au/dp/B09NJM6C1C?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I received the item from Amazon within a couple of days and applied it exactly the way it was recommended on the above Intel page. Now, It's been a few days since I applied the thermal paste, and the laptop is as smooth as it used to be earlier. Those two weeks were hell for me because the laptop would crash every 20 minutes. As of today, it is in perfect working order, and I'm not facing any problems with thermal throttling either.

      You should send it back as soon as you can. Lenovo is sending out laptops with defective chipsets in their motherboards. Thats why the computer is freezing. I have the same issue with my "new" x1 nano which i bought from lenovo's website. I was able to complete the diagnostic test without the computer freezing. Im going to print the diagnostic test and put it in the packaging when they send it. If they dont send me a new computer without a defective motherboard im not buying Lenovo ever again. I paid for express shipping as I needed the computer quickly now I have to wait 10 fucking days for them to get their shit together after paying 1500 dollars for a computer and solving the diagnostic issue.

  • @DragosPantilica
    @DragosPantilica 3 года назад

    I solved the problem after digging a little bit. In general the freezing problem with no BSOD is caused by a hardware issue and particulary a memory ram. So in my thinkpad T14 the second memory (the removeble one) was faulty or it was a compatibility issue. My laptop has a soldered memory stick wich is pointed at 3200Mhz CL22 and the second stick (wich is removeble) was 2666Mhz CL 19. In theory it shouldn't be no problem but I ended by replacing 2666Mhz memory with a 3200Mhz CL22 oneand now all works as it should. Good luck and no freezeing thinkpads :)

    One way to resolve (maybe I should say bypass) this problem is to hold down the ON/OFF bottom for around 3 seconds to turn the PC into sleep mode (don't hold the bottom too long then the PC would be turned off), and then press the ON/OFF bottom again and sign in. You will return to the screen where it was frozen.

    To everyone with this problem. I found what is causing the problem for my T450. The symptoms were just the same as in the video. The freeze is caused by a faulty key in the keyboard which is stuck in a loop I guess (constantly pressing). When I disconnected the keyboard from the motherboard and connected an external keyboard and mouse the problem was gone. Try it and see if you need a keyboard replacement. Trust me It sounds ridiculous but that caused an entire system freeze for me, even in the bios! It took me a month of testing to find it.
