Computer is Running Out of Memory
Computer programs are slow to load and multitasking is near impossible.
Too Many Programs are Running
If you have too many programs open in the background or tabbed out, this may be the issue. Open up Task Manager in Windows and check to see if your memory is at a high percentage. If so, end any unused tasks that you recognize and disable any startup apps you don’t want running on boot up.
RAM is Installed Incorrectly
Double check if your RAM is seated correctly, as improper placement may result in either errors, or the RAM stick not being used entirely. To do this you will need to open the backplate of the laptop and press down on the RAM sticks to insure that they are seat correctly
Insufficient RAM
Refer to this guide if your programs continue to hang.
Computer is Not Connecting to Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi is Turned Off in Settings
Your Computer may have accidently disabled the Wi-Fi option in settings. Insure that the Wi-Fi option is turned on by opening Settings from Windows Menu, navigate to “Network & Internet”, and toggle the Wi-Fi from off to on.
Router/Modem Issues
This may not be an issue surrounding the device itself, but double check if your router or modem is working properly. If not, turn off both your router/modem and computer for 30 seconds, after that reboot both devices and check if you can connect to Wi-Fi. If it still does not work, you may need to contact your Internet provider.

Computer is Overheating

Dust within Fans
This may seem obvious, but dust can have a major impact within your laptop’s fans. To clean this, use a compressed air duster to clean out the vents beneath the laptop.
Inadequate Thermal Paste
If your device is clean on the outside, but there are still overheating issues, your thermal paste may be worn or dried out. You will need to disassemble the computer, the heat sink inside, and clean off the old thermal paste, and apply a bead or thin line of thermal paste on top of your CPU. Once done, reapply the heat sink tightly.
Keys Do Not Work
Computer cannot or inconsistently register certain keystrokes.
Dirt in Between Keys
Check if there is any dirt buildup in between or under the keys, if there is any buildup use a compressed air duster to remove any buildup. If you’re unable to remove any dirt, you have to take out the keycaps for the keys affected, and snap back the key once cleaned.
Update Drivers
Double check and reinstall your keyboard drivers in Windows to see if this fixes the issue. If there are no drivers presented, you may have to download drivers from the official Lenovo website.
Bad Keyboard
If all else fails, then your entire keyboard is broken, or certain keys aren't able to register entirely. From here, you may need to consider a keyboard replacement.

Update Video Drivers
