Thanks

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Hi, as far as i know, the Halo Lighting is control by a driver pre-installed in your system. You may try these steps to check:

If you are running WinXP :
1. Go to "Control Panel", click "System", select "Hardware" tab, then click "Device Manager".
2. Check and see if there is any hardware related to Halo Lighting. If found, right click to select "Disable".

I am running Vista 32 bit. I tried device manager prior to asking the question. There are no drivers associated with this feature that I can find. There is no reference anywhere in the Lenovo site either to the Halo lighting other than advertising the "feature".
Thanks

On my Y730 there is a rainbow icon in the status area of the taskbar. Right clicking on the icon pulls up the halo lighting color picker. One of the choices there will turn off the lighting.

That's what that thing is for. It is verry annoying in ght dark and drains the battery slightly.
Thank you.
