Re: T410i missing graphc device selection in BIOS after repair

Hello everybody,

my Thinkpad t410i had an overheating problem so I gave it to a certified Lenovo store and they changed the mainboard.

After the replacement I am facing now two new problems:

1. The graphic device selection in BIOS/Config/Display is missing. BIOS version is the newest (1.45)

2. Both OS (Ubuntu 13.10 and Windows 7) have Problems with the graphic

   - Windows does not recognize external monitors via VGA anymore

   - Linux crashes at moving windows with the nouveau driver and the proprietary driver also makes problems.

Does a hardware replacement has an effect on running os and could require a new os install?

When is the graphic device selection in BIOS/Config/Display available and when not? Why is it missing now?

Any way to fix this?

Do you need more info?

Thanks a lot  for your help

Re: T430 W7Pro: Solution center message says I am missing driver "qknfd"

I'm getting an exclamation mark on the task bar that leads me to the Lenovo Solution Center, where I get the message noted in the subject line.

The buttons take me to the Device Manager.

I've browsed the Device Manager and looked at all of the listed devices and I do not see an error flag. What do I need to do to install the wayward driver or otherwise clear the error message?

Thanks in advance,

Rick
