Hi:
Which is the latest model of Thinkpad X & T series which retains the "IBM" keyboard?
Written on my W520

Hi:
I'm interested. I'm in Toronto, Canada.
Mike

The two USB 3 ports on the left hand side of my W520 have become intermittent. When I first plug in a drive, they work for a few minutes only, then my external external HDD cannot be seen. The USB 2.0 port on the rear is OK.
Any suggestions?

This machine is only used on wifi so nothing lost by proceeding as you suggest.
Thanks for your help
Regards....Mike

LAN disabled except for WiFi, now starting normally

Hi:
I'm in Toronto, Canada. Can you ship?

Would be good so see the photos.

After the sequence "PXE E05: The LAN adapter's NVM configuration is corrupted or initialized. The Boot Agent cannot continue." ESC key seems to have no effect. The sequence completes 2 or 3 times, then a script rolls upward, so fast it is impossible to read. Then Windows starts, or the sequence repe...

My wife's laptop is so slow to start. During boot, the following is displayed:

PXE E05: The LAN adapter's NVM configuration is corupted or
initialized. The Boot Agent cannot continue.

And eventually Windows 7 boots!

My wife's HDD is approaching full. What is the largest HDD I can install? Is it worth going to SSD? Machine currently has Win7.

Audio from the speakers on my W520 has become intermittent. From the headset jack it is OK. Any suggestions?

We've tried a replacement fan. Still the same problem.

Hi:
Is it possible to upgrade the W520 WiFi to dual band AC? And upgrade BT to BT4?
thanks

Hi guys:
I'm looking for a used W520 FHD with core i7-2860QM. I'm in Toronto Canada. LCD should be without scratches, stuck or dead pixels. Complete with 170W AC adaptor. A dock would be nice also.

When I start my X61 it bleeps then shuts down with "fan fail" message.
Any suggestions?

Now solved - ignore the Acronis instructions, install new drive in external tray, clone the drive, install the new drive in the laptop then fix a boot problem using Windows7 install disk.

My understanding, both from successful clones in the past, and from Acronis instructions, is that I should install the new drive in the PC, the existing drive in an external tray, change the startup config, then boot windows from the externat drive. Then start Acronis and proceed with the cloning. A...

That is correct. Existing HDD in a USB case, new Hitachi inside the laptop. The laptop will not boot.

Mike

I'm trying to clone the hdd using Acronis True Image Home.
Follwing Acronis recommendation I have installed the existing hdd in an external drive tray connected via USB. Now the laptop will not boot. Suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks
Mike

I eventually bought an X200 7459-FE7 in Singapore and installed the WWAN.

Can anybody help with TA Book data for X200 7455-A32? I'm interested to know if this is WWAN ready i.e. built in antennas.
thanks

Finally was able to get Hitachi 100 GB to boot after cloning with Acronis
thanks for all suggestions.

I've tried installing a Hitachi 5400 100 GB HDD. It is not recognised by the T30. The BIOS is updated.

What I really need are posts from those who have successfully installed a 100 GB HDD in the T30

It is posted on this and other forums that the only Hitachi 100 GB which will work are those sold by IBM/Lenovo.

Hi:

Who can confirm which 100 GB HDDs can be used in a T30? I understand that a Hitachi does not work.

thanks
