But, you should go for a clean reinstall. Back your data up externally following http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/93347-copy-paste-windows-recovery-console.html and then go for a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219487-clean-reinstall-factory-oem-windows-7-a.html#post1839164 ...... you need to get rid of those lenovo bloatware.

Alright ill do the infinite loop thingy but any tips now cuz my screen won't even turn on when I power on my laptop =/

 

[Arc]

You need to do a power cycle.

Shut down the computer. Remove the charger. Remove the battery too, so that there may not be any source of power available. Now press and hold the power button for say 30 seconds. Hopefully it will drain all the remaining power out.

Now put the battery back. Plug in the charger and power on the computer.

Didn't work the screen still won't power on.. shud I unplug the CMOS battery too and hold down the power button?

 

[Arc]

Try it. If still not working, better you bring it to a technician. Laptop's hardware is too complicated as I find.

I managed to get the screen to work but whenever i try to enter the repair screen to fix the reboot i get these annoying red lines across my screen and they will either freeze the computer or reboot it... any ideas?

 

[Arc]

How did you manage the screen to work? Let us know?

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

[Myrovanna]

I literally just replaced the RAM 2 or 3 days ago cuz of bad RAM unless I shud do it again? And is that graphics card test like a memtest? Don't need to fully boot up the comp? And I just let my laptop sit running for like 2 mins then the screen would come on

 

[Arc]

What you are having is a hardware error. If you want to point the error out, you need to perform those tests.

No, Furmark test runs from the desktop. If you cannot run furmark, you can run memtest. If memtest comes free from errors, and you cannot run furmark at all, blame the GPU for the mess.

 

[Myrovanna]

Ok lets say memtest comes back with 0 errors and I still can't startup windows andnit does happen to be my GPU... how much do you think it would cost to get the same identical one in my laptop? Cuz I kno u can't upgrade graphics cards in laptops

I have no idea about price. Specially in a situation where price at your place at your currency will differ from those of my place at my currency.

So memtest found errors on the very first pass within like 15 mins.. now I'm testing each stick yet again.. altho 2 things... 1.I don't get how it found errors again if the RAM I just bought is brand spankin new, and 2.I noticed when I took out Stick 2 the computer screen booted up right away instead of taking 2-3 mins to load

Errors/red lines means one or more RAM is faulty. But the fault may occur due to a faulty DIMM slot, too, which is a motherboard component. Using memtest86+, you can discriminate between a faulty RAM and a faulty motherboard. Follow Part 3: If You Have Errors: of the tutorial How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+

How? Say you have two RAM sticks and two DIMM slots. You obtained errors at the test with all RAM sticks installed. Now, remove all the sticks but one. Test it in all the available slots, one by one. Continue the same procedure for all the available sticks.
How to make the inference that is it a RAM issue or it is a motherboard issue? Suppose you have got the result like that:

test|Slot1|Slot2
RAM1| Error | Error
RAM2|Good|Good

It is a RAM, a bad RAM.

But if you have got a result like that:

test|Slot1|Slot2
RAM1| Error |Good
RAM2| Error |Good

It is a motherboard issue. The particular slot is bad.

 

[Myrovanna]

Well 1 more thing.. with the first memtest I did on my old RAM stick 1 had errors in both slots but stick 2 had 0 errors AND when I bought the new RAM and carefully took it out of the package I noticed a very "hard to notice" cut on the metal park of the ram almost like someone tool a knife and cut diaganolly on the goldish end part of the RAM but I didn't think anything of it until now.. could that be the possible problem?

 

[Arc]

Yes, if the stick is not of the proper shape and size, it is the problem.

 

[Myrovanna]

Well I made sure they were the EXACT same size/shape when I bought altho I did read up on my computer and it said my computee can go up to 8gb and at the time bestbuy only had 8gb DDR3 notebook RAM sticks... so idk if the upgrade screwed it up? Or if its the cut on the stick?

 

[Arc]

Befor completing the directions of post #53, you cannot comment on it.

 

[Myrovanna]

RAM stick 1 0 errors both slots RAM stick 2 the screen wont even turn on to let me do a memtest.. yet with other ram stick in the screen boots up right away... bad ram in guessing?

 

[Arc]

Ram stick 1 errors in both the slots.
Ram stick 2 even does not boot.

Bad motherboard I would say.

 

[Myrovanna]

Nooo RAM stick 1 has no errors in both slots but RAM stick 2 the screen won't even turn on with it in
