Hi,
I'm new here so take it easy one me
Aldo I have many years of working with tech behinde me around 12 years but it was for Apple - and now I'm on the Windows / Linux PC and I need some advice.
I did buy a new Lenovo ThinkPad T460s, the first thing I did was that I did go in to BIOS and I did change the video memory to 512MB and I did also Enabled the virtualization option.
Then I did reboot and the computer did show the Lenovo startup page, I guess it was the POST and then it did get a black screen then it did reboot by it self, after the reboot it did boot just fine in to the setup for the Windows 10 installation that was original on the SSD from factory.
Then I did reboot it to boot up form the USB drive so I could do a clean installation from Windows 10.
After the installation I did start to install all of the drivers for the computer, and during the reboots it did happen sometimes that it did boot up and then restart exactly like I did describe above.
Then I did update BIOS and the black background in BIOS did turn grey, so I did reset the BIOS to default then the grey background did go to it's original black background again.
Also I did update the FW for the chipset that did have notes in the readme file that it should fix some issue regarding booting up and get stuck on black screen.
[Problem fixes]
- Fixed an issue where the system might encounter a black screen hang during
power cycles.
And I did notice that during one of the reboots.
After I have been installing all of the drivers etc. I don't have the issue again - was this due to the installation of the drivers?
Or is it hardware related? Should I bee worried?
I have 14 days of remorse period so I'm wondering if I should replace it or not.
I have been running PRIME95 for 16h no issue, FuruMark for 16h no Issue, memtest for 16h no issue and also 10 runs with the Intel
