I have a different model (Lifebook PH521) and the fan stays ON even on standby (with the LCD is OFF). If Fujitsu designed it that way, thats' a blunder in my opinion. I should have bought an Asus. The worst part, I tried to contact Taiwan Service (from where I bought my notebook), they said it is no...

Although I don't exactly know how did the problem happened in details, I' m positive your notebook will be restored. Based on the "load driver" errors, it's not that serious. Good luck.

I have spent more than a week looking for a direct instruction on how to dual-boot my Lifebook PH521 with Phoenix SecureCore Tiano. My search turned out with vague results. My conclusion, UEFI Dual Boot is STILL not mature. I have no problem booting on Live USB to try Linux, and almost all of my har...

I think I messed up the BIOS of my PH521. It has Phoenix SecureCore Tiano BIOS with UEFI support. I want to dual-boot Linux & The Pre-installed Windows 7. I was a bit adventurous in doing so. But I know what I was doing to the BIOS, and if anything goes wrong, the BIOS should easily reset I supp...
