Thanks much. The OS on both is xp pro. I am trying to get an OCR program going and recommended is 2ghz dual core and 2G ram. I have ram en-route and we'll see what happens. I wanted to use my dock and ultrabay goodies but I think I need to look at something heftier. t60,61?

Will the 2.0 ghz process. Out of my donor t30 (2366-88u) mfg. 3/03 replace the 1.3 ghz out of my r40 (2722-6yu) mfg. 3/09?

Will my t30 hd boot in the r40?

Thanks!

I have 2 cute twin girls headed to college prep middle school this fall and I need separate computers for them. Antone have anything in good condition. Thanks

After numerous drops, bumps and assorted catastrophes my T30 finally bit the dust when my breifcase hit the windshield after I hit a utility pole @ 65mph. It'll still boot but the screen is toast. 120g Toshiba maybe 6 mo. old too but works fine. Previous problem with known memory slot, booting probl...

Thanks for the clarification Harry! I noticed some ads state both slots tested. I'll stick to those. My fan has stalled on occasion. A used one will probably do the same

Between my memory slot issue and now this non- booting issue that others have complained about, I have decided to replace my MB. The plastic label under wifi card reads 91P7695 and the fan 46P2958. I'm not finding much on eBay and what is there and on the web is expensive. (My fav was $349. w. $129....

Anyone care to share their latest good guy eBay motherboard source. Most are not even responding to my request of assuring 2 functional memory slots. Thanks all! Pete

Sorry folks! Never intended to flame out here. I'm just so tired of good hard earned (Self employed) money buying things that don't meet the most basic expectations and companies that just don't care. "Waring" I listed above didn't even care I bought it on eBay. They just wanted me to be a satisfied...

You guys are killing me. Anyone mentions David Cassidy or Leif Garrett and I'm gonna sic Bill Morrow on you. Just kidding! Naw, I bought it from a dealer in Houston who installed it at time of purchase. I can't seem to find him now. It must have been owned previously by an ENRON exec. who spent more...

Just sharing my happy shiny experience as a consumer. While I'm at it .... Thanks Memorex for replacing that DVD drive no questions asked a couple of months ago. Thanks Diamond for shipping me that fan to replace the defective one based on my word. The replacement works great! I just purchased a sou...

I should expect to get more than 1.5 years out of a hard drive that sits on my desk 99.9% of the time and stays on only 1-2 hours a day at the most. OEM whatever! It's a product and a reputation. Split hairs all you want but the fact remains I have bought over 15 Hitachi drives in the last 5 years a...

Travelstar has 3 years. Lenovo badged same HD 1 year. 1.5 years into my drives life span and it's toast and big surprise; they aren't replacing anything. I will make sure to reach right past The green Hitachi drills and bits while at my box store buying tools this pm. Hitachi no more! Pete the consu...

Hi, Maybe pm this rocket science level moderator I copied below and he can be more technical. I do remember once having to do it many more than 10 times though.

Try to reset it by unplugging it and removing the battery. Pust the power button several times (about 10) holding it for 5 seconds the last time. This has worked for me a couple of times before. I couldn't locate original thread.

Hi folks, After cloning to a new drive the old 40G Hitachi was put in an Ultrabay adapter and a full and a couple of incremental back ups (via Acronis True Image 10) were done. Now it wont' recognize this drive in either the laptop slot or in the docking station ultrabay slot either. I took adapter ...

Hey RBS, thanks for the reply. I have it in dock II ultrabay for strictly back up purposes for acronis images. format under administrative\computer mgmt.\ "R" click disk mgmt. or is this something that should be done with True Image or Disk Director? Is there some plan of partioning preferable for b...

Have new rip roaring 7200 rpm Travelstar in the device just freshly cloned with no trouble whatsoever with Acronis True Image. I now Have old 4200 in Ultrabay in dock II and have it recognized by system. What do I need to do to old HD to prepare for True Image backup plan? Old data still there. I al...

After reading Bill Morrow's great sticky on cloning a hd {thanks Bill!}I only wonder if any partioning has to be done before initial clone? I have had the new hd (hitachi 7K100 60 gb) recognized in the ultrabay in the T30 but never did anything more with it. After initial clone I want to put old 40 ...
