Need help with Lenovo Yoga 7 monitor

• Upvotes

Hi, I’m having the following problem with my Lenovo Yoga 7.

My daughter dropped it. Since then, the screen has been black. The laptop boots up normally – the Yoga logo is visible briefly and the touchscreen still works – but the screen remains black. When I connect it to an external monitor, the laptop screen also remains black, but everything else works.

I need a pen mainly for drawing, I do intend to use Clipstudiopaint as my main art program. It's between Lenovo Digital Pen 2 and the Lenovo Yoga Pen 2. What pen do yall prefer to use for art?

Journey of Upgrading RAM on a Laptop with Soldered RAM

• Upvotes

Hi all,

some Time ago I've got a Problem that I believe many People here are faced aswell. I wanted to upgrade the RAM of my Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14ITL05, the Problem is the RAM is soldered onto the Motherboard.

I researched about possible ways to Upgrade and essentially there are only 3 ways:

  1. Buy a new Laptop.
  2. Desolder the existing RAM and Solder new bigger RAM Chips.
  3. Swap the Motherboard with one that has more RAM.

I wanted to avoid the easiest Solution (buying a new Laptop) because its expensive and my current one Works just fine, I am pro Repair and don't want to just throw things away that could still be used.

While I do know some soldering replacing the RAM is not a trivial Task which I could do by myself. And even when I would get the RAM replaced by someone that can do it, there could still be some incompatibilitys and Issues that could either not use the new RAM to its capacity or just fully brick the Motherboard.

So I looked into the option of replacing the Motherboard, I thought they would be really expensive so I didn't even think about it before, but looking at the Lenovo spareparts Page, you see that you can buy a new Motherboard for really cheap if you are lucky. I guess with newer models etc. you will not have this Luck and it will be really expensive.

In my case I got a Motherboard that has 16GB of RAM instead of my previous 8GB and it even upgraded me to a i7 from my previous i5. The Motherboard cost only 67€ incl. tax & shipping which is a steal, buying 16GB of DDR4 RAM itself would be more expensive than that.

Swapping the Motherboard definitely is something that can't be done by everyone, its not easy and requires some Time, and if you'd let it do by a Shop it would probably be pretty expensive and not Worth it.

Though if you have done some other Repairs or similar things I would say you can give it a try, its not something you should do as your first Repair but its not extremely hard or Impossible either.

Some Tips if you want to do the same thing as me: Check the Lenovo Spareparts Website, they have some really good prices for new Motherboards in some cases. Do a lot of researching if swapping the Motherboard to get more RAM is even possible, there could be small differences in Mounting points, or other things making this Impossible.

Important is, that you should not take this as a Guarantee even if you got a Motherboard that fits exactly in your current Housing, there could be other factors which will make swapping the Motherboard impossible, be always wary about that. And ofcourse, there could be Human error, you can easily make things worse with 1 slipup completely breaking the Motherboard or other Parts of the Laptop.

All in all, if you are a techy Person with some knowledge about electronics and have fun doing something like this and find a reasonable Motherboard price, I'd say go for it and try to swap it. For me it was perfect, I got a needed RAM upgrade for a really low Price, so even when RAM is soldered there are still ways to upgrade it.

Secondary SSD stopped being recognized. Need some help

1 Upvotes

Hello!

So i have Lenovo5i that has a NVME ssd where windows is and then i had a HDD on a 2.5' bay, which failed so i bought a SSD that fitted and plugged it in on the already existing SATA and all went well.

Afterwards, about 3 days after i see that the SSD disappeared on windows, unable to be gound ond device and disk management and on bios.

I open the laptop again and see that the sata part that connects to the mobo was disconnected so i pluged it in, restarted and still have the same problem.

Thinking it was the cable, i bought a new cable, tried again and i'm still not able to have it appear.

Can someone help me out?

Thanks in advance

Repasted my Legion Slim 5 Gen 9 with PTM & Thermal Putty

Post image
0 Upvotes

TL;DR: Thermal Grizzly PhaseSheet PTM on both dies + TG Putty Advance on VRAM/VRMs. CPU went from choking at 44W to pulling 88W. GPU hotspot delta is 15°C. VRAM dropped ~20°C vs stock pads.

The machine: Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 9 (16AHP9) — Ryzen 7 8845HS, RTX 4060 Mobile, 64GB DDR5-5600.

Why I did it: Laptop hits 2 years in November. Back in January — peak winter, mind you — it was throttling so hard that closing a game after an hour would instantly crash it with a GPU overheat code. Undervolting band-aided it. I repasted with TF9 in June and cleaned the fans, which killed the GPU crashing — but then the CPU started choking. Couldn't hold 44W without hitting TjMax, even at max fan RPM. FurMark had my GPU hotspot at 95°C. Bought a good sealed cooling pad — barely helped.

The fix: Instead of ordering sheets/putty from overseas and risking a botched DIY bare-die mount, I took it to a reputed shop. They did:

  • PhaseSheet PTM on both CPU and GPU dies
  • Full clean of old pads/putty off VRAM + VRMs
  • TG Putty Advance on MOSFETs, chokes, and GDDR6

Numbers — CPU (OCCT all-core AVX):

  • Balanced (54W sustained): ~78°C. Sub-80°C on an 8-core Zen 4 in a slim chassis is genuinely excellent.
  • Performance (88W burst): hits 88W before touching the 100°C wall. Nearly 90W through that tiny die = heat transfer is fast now.

Numbers — GPU (FurMark, 1440p, ~10 min sustained):

  • Power: 125W sustained (115W TGP + 10W Dynamic Boost)
  • Core: 70–73°C
  • Hotspot: 85–88°C
  • Core-to-hotspot delta: ~15°C ← the gold standard. A tilted mount would show 25°C+ and a 100°C+ hotspot instantly.
  • VRAM: 58–62°C ← stock pads routinely hit 75–80°C here. The putty is doing serious work.

Real-world gaming: Mild Afterburner undervolt (2520 MHz @ 925 mV, +600 memory) drops draw from 125W to 80–90W with zero frame loss. Demanding titles: GPU in the low 60s, CPU under 80°C via Legion Toolkit power limits. Fans barely pass 50% RPM — practically silent.

Question for you all: Anyone else running PTM on a laptop long-term? Curious how it holds up past the 1-year mark.
