Yoga 2 Pro (20266 / 80AY) - Lenovo devices tested for Windows 10 version 1703 (update March, 201

[nleahcim]

Hi Birraque - I tried installing the 4 sets of drivers that you suggested - wifi, BT, rapid storage, and video - and only the first two installed properly. The other two reported that my hardware did not support them. Maybe there are multiple versions of Yoga Pro 2 and only some support those?

Also - you mention a clean Windows install. How necessary do you think that is? I would rather not start over from scratch... I just want my wifi to work!

Hi nleahcim,

Double check if you're running BT & WLAN (19.50.1) version. Latest Intel driver (19.60.1 and 19.70.1 ) isn't running well with Y2P.

You can handle VGA - Intel Graphics Driver for Windows 10 [15.40.34.4624] installation issue using DDU - Display Driver Uninstaller [17.0.7.3] to uninstall your current driver. Step-by-Step Guide HERE.
Intel RST - Intel Rapid Storage Technology [14.8.0.1042], follow is the solution:

1. Press Windows Key + R
2. Type regedit and press ENTER
3. On the left side menu navigate to the following folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Intel\Setup$
4. On the right side panel will be two entries, double click the REG_DWORD entry (in my case and might be same for everyone, the name was {409CB30E-E457-4008-9B1A-ED1B9EA21140}).
5. Once you double clic, a small windows will appear where the value information will "1", change that value to "0" (with out the quotation marks)
6. Reboot your system
7. Install Intel RST

Hopefully this will help a lot of people on the same situation.

(*) I just suggest a Clean Install if your system isn't running well otherwise keep the current build.

Regards,

If you are still not confident that this Setup Guide can fix the issues like flicker, shutdown, sleep, ssd performance, overheating, tablet mode slow down, weird color display, wifi & bt connection dropping, miracast and "maybe" some other small issues that I forgot to mention. I suggest to read THIS.
I hope this help a lot of people on the same situation.
