Common stuff
- DiskCryptor does not work on Win8. To be precise, hibernation mode does not work. Unfortunately no response(s) from ntldr. TrueCrypt works perfectly, also for SSD (in my case).
- Tiles & stuff is ridiculous and makes Windows unuseable. ClassicShell (http://www.classicshell.net) helps: Enable start button, start menu and remove magic corners. Unfortunately the classic has disappeared completely which makes using Win8 uncomfortable and ugly.
- Tablet support (IME etc) in Win8 is an impertinence! It's not existent at all. Unfortunately no replacement known.
- Camera: g1c810ww.exe (Integrated Camera Driver for Windows 8, 1.0.0.19)
- Card Reader: g1s808ww.exe (Ricoh Media Card Reader Driver for Windows 8, 2.24.18.01)
- Graphics: Intel HD Graphics Driver for Windows 8 (64-bit), 9.17.10.2875
...
- TODO: Battery Firmware Upgrade
Power Manager
- Lenovo Power Management Driver, 1.67.0.02, giku06ww.exe
- TODO: Power Manager for Win7 ???
Bluetooth
Bluetooth Drivers for Win7 do not work (g4wb12ww.exe) Install Drivers for Win8 (g4we14ww.exe). Compatibility mode not necessary (?)
Hotkeys etc.
Clean Uninstall:
- Remove "On Screen Keyboard"
- Remove "System Interface Driver"
- In Device Manager, remove "Lenovo HID Mini-driver for Hardware Radio Switch"
- gevu60ww.exe: Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit), 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), XP - ThinkPad, 4.21.2200, http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS029026
- 8jvu38ww.exe: Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit), 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit), XP and 2000 - ThinkPad, 3.86.0000, http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-74261
gevu60ww.exe works better for me and has Flightmode feature built-in. Does not seem to have (need?) "System Interface Driver"
Install gevu60ww.exe. Do not install driver from this file. Run c:\DRIVERS\HOTKEY\SETUP.exe in Win7 Compatibility mode. If not logged in as admin, make sure you change compatibility mode for all users.
Then Fn+F5 should work + HW switch. BT is by default always on. Create a shortcut in Startup folder with:
"C:\Program Files\Lenovo\HOTKEY\TpFnF5.exe" /BTOFF
Attention: When the Desktop has the focus while pressing Fn+F5, it is overwritten by Windows and the device toggle flight mode instead! Make sure that a different application has focus while pressing Fn+F5!
Wireless Hardware Switch
Nothing needed. Leaves "Unknown Device" (DEV_0078) in Device Manager. If you install "Lenovo HID HW Radio Driver for Windows 8 (32-bit , 64-bit) - ThinkPad" http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032422 (g1hd55ww.exe), flight mode will toggle in addition to the Lenovo Tool messages!
If you do not want this, either don't install the driver or disable the "HID-compliant device" which has DEV_0078 as parent. I don't know if this has an impact on power consumption etc.
Fn+F6 (Communications Settings)
This hot key is double registered:
- Rename c:\Program Files\Lenovo\HOTKEY\tpfnf6.exe to c:\Program Files\Lenovo\HOTKEY\tpfnf6.exe.old
- Use ThinkpadHotKey.exe (see below) to map C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Communications Utility\TPFNF6.exe with parameter /HOTKEY to Fn+F6 (only if not yet done by Communications Setting Tool!)
