    Sorry. The main error was ACPI bios not fully compliant. Plus a sad face told me that my pc ran into error and need to be restarted...I tried also installing 7 and xp with same results. My laptop was originally shipped with windows 7 home edition. On the Lenovo website no bios update present or planned. Thanks.:(
