If I put it into sleep or hibernation, it’ll usually turn back on, but only for a few minutes at most – then it’ll turn off again.<\/p>\n
I have a hunch it’s one of those stupid inscrutable Thinkpad config settings that someone at Lenovo needs to get pummeled over.\u00a0 But I can rarely get it to stay on long enough to get the stupid Thinkpad config screen to come up.<\/p>\n
Anyone have any ideas?<\/p>\n
