Hi,
I managed to adquire a cheap X230 tablet system board (I7 3520m), and my plan is to mount it in my X220 (non tablet), and mod the EC, in order to keep the good old X220 Keyboard (I will still need a 44+ battery).
My question is...
Should I have to flash an official X230 non tablet bios+EC before modding anything? The boards in tablet and non tablet models are the same, only the BIOS should be different. But I don't have clear if BIOS in both boards are the same, and only EC are different, or if both BIOS and EC are different.
And (important)... can I flash the X230T board once mounted in the X220 hardware, or must it be made with the board mounted in its original tablet hardware?
Thank you!
