If you want to re-enable the service (which disables the keyboard for tablet use), simply do the same but click the ymcstart you created.<br /><br />see my post:<br />http://uselesspuzzles.blogspot.com/2013/05/i-cant-believe-lenovo-yoga-is-still.html<br /><br />Hope this helps!tribixbitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02593941984420287813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-61652081804618430652013-05-07T14:06:37.401-07:002013-05-07T14:06:37.401-07:00I had the same problem...the noise became suddenly...I had the same problem...the noise became suddenly VERY loud, clearly the fan was hitting the metallic support. I could open the keyboard (no tools, just with fingers), access the fan, again with my nail lift up the metallic cover around the edge f the left fan....and now it works like a charm! i realized it ALWAYS hit the metallic part, even when it was new. Now, my fan is much quieter than the day i bought it....thanks for the description, sincerely.pzucchelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04635761556614080714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-4836652647947354582013-04-30T09:48:07.052-07:002013-04-30T09:48:07.052-07:00hi, this might sound like a stupid question...but ...hi, this might sound like a stupid question...but i have keyboard/touchscreen problems. in the middle of writing, using the keyboard and touchpad in any way, the keyboard and touchpad stop working and i can only use the touchscreen even though the computer is in the 'position which should not block the keyboard'. is there anywhere i could block the touchscreen or unblock the keyboard? <br />thanks for any helpful comments!Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09391474699340853488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-53147216775568011722013-04-17T13:47:54.281-07:002013-04-17T13:47:54.281-07:00i put a 2nd ssd there... :)i put a 2nd ssd there... :)tribixbitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02593941984420287813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-7928948420805280632013-04-17T13:20:32.450-07:002013-04-17T13:20:32.450-07:00What is the empty PCI slot useful for?

Check the video below, how it is done.<br /> <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7C8eM1GkU3o&feature=youtu.be<br /> <br />The cpu fans are not working and the laptop is totally silent. Overheating is not a problem for now, because the laptop is cooling through the metal.<br />Normal working temperature is now around 52°C (before that it was around 47°C).<br /> <br />Please share your opinion and comment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13506587902279721753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-83975555947120312192013-03-14T20:13:09.888-07:002013-03-14T20:13:09.888-07:00Unfortunately I don't know - my new Yoga that ...Unfortunately I don't know - my new Yoga that I ordered on the Lenovo website doesn't seem to have fan issues - just ymc.exe issuestribixbitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02593941984420287813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951038239254779867.post-77070265445595777792013-03-14T19:30:27.986-07:002013-03-14T19:30:27.986-07:00Do you possibly know if this is aluminum heatsink ...Do you possibly know if this is aluminum heatsink or it's copper. Hard to believe but I guess it's aluminum, since they need two noisy fans on an 17W CPU under no load.<br /><br />I had crappy HP with 35W CPU and 50W GPU and it was causing less fan noise. In fact, the fan is off if not under the load.<br /><br />T420 with 35W CPU starts the fan only under the heavy load. And even then, there is no fan noise. Just a mild air hum.
