    I just bought the Lenovo Flex 2 15D and I tried signing up to the Lenovo forum to but after clicking on the e-mail link to finish the registration it gave me this message "We're sorry, but you have been banned from using this site". This is the first time I have ever been to the Lenovo website or owned any of their product. Not a very good start so far.

    I was hoping to locate the Lenovo application which come with the laptop, especially the application which switches to the "dual-mode" (table style) which also activates a virtual keyboard. Maybe someone here could point me in the right direction?

    Did you look in the Support Drivers and Downloads area for your model?

    I doubt they banned you. Website glitch most likely.

    I have downloaded all of the drivers and software/utility at the Lenovo website but I did not see anything regarding the virtual keyboard and disabling the physical keyboard while in "dual-mode" (table style). I wanted to know if there was an application for that and if so where I could get it.

    I suspect it is a glitch but I cannot contact anyone in the Forum to rectify the issue.

    I'll check and see what happened with your account. It may have been an IP ban from the automatic spam filtering.

    I can't find a karnold there. What username did you register with?

    The software you need is Lenovo Transition which is currently at version 2.0. The screen will still rotates, keyboard disable and you can still pull up the virtual even without the Lenovo Transition. From my understanding it's the sensor which controls it all and you can obtain the drivers on the Lenovo website.
