Thank you all for the informative replies. Much appreciated.

I really like this light and responsive machine. Thinking of going the SSD route but it's something I am woefully ignorant of. I see two type of SSDs; One type resembles a hard drive in size and utilizes the existing SATA connectors. The other type resembles an IC on a board with edge connectors. I ...

Thank you. I’ve confirmed this as well.

Again, thank you all for the input. The Windows 10 version of TPFancontrol did not run correctly on my T440p. The program window was the wrong size and would not resize. I uninstalled it and installed the next to last version which runs correctly and show that my fan is turning zero RPM on system st...

Thank you all for the informative replies. I'm hoping axur-delmeria is correct. I'm going to take jursky's advice and give TP Fan Control a try. I ast used it on my T60 and T61 when they were going through the dreaded fried NVIDIA era. I think it actually helped to keep those machines alive for a bi...

Thank you for the quick reply, but that’s not the question I asked. Upon startup, does the fan run, or does it wait for a sensor to turn it on, assuming the machine is “cold” and the sensor will initiate rotation of the fan only after a certain temperature is reached? My previous machines ran the fa...

Dumb question. Does the fan on a T440p run at startup, or does it get switched on and off by a heat sensor? I noticed that my fan does not run on startup. I get no fan error message and the motherboard passes Lenovo Solutions tests. TIA for any info.

T440p, 8 GB RAM, Win 10 Pro, Intel Dual Band Wireless AC 7260 keeps dropping off the Internet. All other wireless devices don't drop, so I'm guessing it's not the router. When it drops sometimes Windows Network Diagnosis can get it back online by "re-enabling" the adapter. Other times I have to dele...

Found it by examining photo after photo, finally stumbling into one on Amazon's US site. Correct numbers and a Liteon label.

If I were you I would also consider the UK -version with FRU 04X0168: http://www.ebay.com/itm/122235898667 IMHO UK layout is much nicer than US. :D I''d agree if I were typing UK English. But moving through at least 4 machines a day, the commonality outweighs the layout. Besides, the three layer fu...

There are many eBay resellers that offer "similar" and then offer to supply any particular FRU that you'd like if their offering doesn't seem to satisfy your request. Most or some of these mention their product isn't a "knock-off" but are actually supplied from Lenovo contractors. Have you contacte...

Forgive me if I'm violating a rule on bumping my own post, but almost 100 views and no results?

I have a ThinkPad T440p, model number 20AWA20LLM. The price was too good to pass up, but this was a machine for the Latin American market and came with a Spanish keyboard. I bought an English keyboard on Amazon, but it is a generic Chinese unit and feels terrible. I am looking for a Liteon illuminat...

Absolutely hate the darn thing. Works best on a desk or table. Works best using two hands. One handed operation in you lap is frustrating. Missed right clicks. Missed center clicks. And if you leave "gestures" enabled, inadvertent zoom changes and navigation errors. Major step down from my T520. Key...

The fingerprint reader works differently than previous models. You must use the power button to turn the machine on. I too was confused by this having used the reader to power on my T520 for many years. I don't have any advice about the Password Manager as I've never used it.

Ouch. Sorry for your aggravation. The Lenovo instructions for changing out the keyboard specifically show a plastic tool designed for the purpose. OEM keyboards purchased from Lenovo include the tool. You can purchase a similar tool from most electronics shops as their use is also mandated by many c...

Indeed, not a fix. Thanks to you and Ray for considering this. I guess we should consider this closed.

Thanks for the quick reply. We have different needs and methods. I have one bookmark, thinkpads.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=68.

I have my area of interest bookmarked. I click on the bookmark and it takes me to the page with which I am interested. Then I must log in. But logging in takes me to the top page instead of the forum I´m interested in. I then have to navigate back to where I want to be. Does the site staff consider ...

SOLVED. I had to install the language as the Windows option of Spanish keyboard English language does not work. As soon as I added Spanish language support all was well. Still typing in English, but the rest of the keyboard characters are now in the right place.

I purchased a T440p, brand new at a bargain price. Living in Cancun, the machine was delivered with a Spanish keyboard. While I am awaiting the delivery of the backlit US English keyboard from the US, I want to use this keyboard, but am being stymied by the non-standard layout. I have to assume it w...

You can also try re-loading the audio driver and see if that fixes it.

Done and fixed. Very strange. Don't understand how drivers could use phones and not use speakers, but it's fixed.

There is a tool that would allow you to uninstall an update, and block it from auto installing again. I think it is mentioned in the windows 10 forums sections, if you can't find it, google it. The update in question is a big Service Pack and is in reality a whole reinstall of Win 10. Not really an...

ThinkPad T520. Win 10 Pro. Upon reboot directly after the 10586.3 update I lost audio to the speakers. Audio in the headphones is fine. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Temetka wrote:Start the computer? As in, power on using the fingerprint reader? I was unaware that Thinkpad's could do that.

I can assure you that in Win 7 I could start the computer with a finger swipe. It would also continue through the login with no pause to the desktop.

Slightly different problem. The fingerprint reader used to be available to start the computer. After installing 10 Pro, the LED is lit, but the reader does nothing. Once I get to the login (Hello) screen, I can use the reader to log in.

My T520 is not listed. Nevertheless the upgrade from 7 Pro to 10 Pro was easy and then a clean install was easy as well. I would like the Lenovo Power Manager and HotKeys and my only other concern is that the Bluetooth indicator remains on. I've proved that using the Settings panel turns the radio o...
