Is your Lenovo Y720 laptop CPU stuck at 0.78Ghz? Here’s how to fix it

Comments 0 Comment

Hi everyone, Recently, I came into this issue where my Lenovo Y720 laptop, with an Intel Core i7-7700HQ CPU seems to be stuck at running at 0.78Ghz even when the power options are set to High Performance. This issue would persist even when the machine is shut down and powered on again, for some reason. The task manager looks like this in this case: Laptops, especially those with dedicated graphics, would throttle down the CPU sometimes if the temperature gets…

Hi everyone, Yesterday, we got another update of Windows 10 released to the Release Preview channel. This update has a Knowledge Base number of KB5010415 and brings Windows to the following versions: Windows 10 20H2 19042.1561 Windows 10 21H1 19043.1561 Windows 10 21H2 19044.1561 I usually downloaded Windows updates from uup.rg-adguard.net but I am giving uupdump.net a try. The process is very straightforward and follows almost the same steps we did to download Windows 11 UUP files. There are 2…

Hi everyone, Today, I will show you how to download Windows 11 UUP files from uupdump.net. This seems to be the most reliable way to get the Windows 11 UUP files that are needed to build an ISO, as previously, I’ve had issues with some downloads from uup.rg-adguard.net. The issue I’ve been having is with the “Upgrade to Windows 11” version that’s shown under the “Windows (Insider version)” category. That option always seem to download very small files, and uup-converter-wimlib…

Hi everyone, Yesterday, Windows 11 Cumulative Update KB5008215 was released. As usual, I attempt to download the UUP files to create and archive the Windows 11 update. One thing of this update is that it was not released under the Cumulative Update section but as an “Upgrade to Windows 11 (22000.376)” UUP. For some reason, when attempting to create the Windows ISO image using this “Upgrade to Windows 11”, it seems to download invalid files, and the whole process fails….

Hi everyone, On the past few days, I struggled on making a Windows 11 ISO for the version 22000.318. For some reason, uup-converter-wimlib failed to create it and it seems it may have to do with some weird downloads. Yesterday, we got the version 22000.346 and I also downloaded the UUP files for it. uup-converter-wimlib was able to create an ISO for this version, so clearly something is wrong with the 22000.318 files. In fact, looking at the UUP file…

So, now that we have successfully downloaded the Windows UUP files, created the ISO image, and optionally patched the Windows 11 ISO, now it’s time to burn it to a DVD. While today most people prefer to make a bootable USB drive, burning the image to a DVD have the advantage of archiving it for later use, while a USB drive may be formatted later for additional use. I always prefer to burn the images to disc because they provide…

Hi everyone, Today, I’d like to show you some very simple steps to create a modified Windows 11 ISO image to allow it to install and upgrade on older hardware. As you may know by now, the official requirements for Windows 11 are a machine that has a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0, must have Secure Boot enabled, and an 8th-gen Intel CPU or 2nd-gen AMD Ryzen CPU or higher. This means it excludes older, perfectly working machines. For example,…

Hi everyone, Today, we will see how to create a Windows 10 or Windows 11 ISO image using the downloaded Universal Update Platform files we downloaded on our previous post. For this, we will need to download a tool called uup-converter-wimlib. This tool is responsible for converting the UUP files into a working ISO file we can burn to a disc, use to make a bootable USB drive, or do an in-place OS upgrade. Downloading uup-converter-wimlib This tool can be…
