I do not agree with the comment about the grainyness. I have the X201t now after having owned an X61t (both touch) and I do not see any grainyness (or fingerprints, like on the X61t) on the new screen. I find it great. The touch is nice and intuitive, and it's quite a technological leap from a X60 t...

Again, thank you very much for your comprehensive and clear messages. Much appreciated after the initial shock. :( This time I ordered the XGA but from Prime elektronic components on eBay as a kit, the whole thing, screen with panel, hinges antenna's and all. New! Original!!! And yes, it has been a ...

RealBlackStuff,

Thank you very much for your helpfull info. Do you also know why this is and why it then at least does not give me a XGA 1024 x 768? Is there a way to work around this, that it will accept this screen?

Thanks

I have returned the screen to Screenaid and let this be a warning too everybody, Screenaid and laptopZ is one company using different names on the internet and i have had a horrible experience with them. Anyone interested i can send you all the correspondence. Pfff... Yak and RealBlackStuff, thanks ...

Thank you for your reply, i think it maybe be the LCD cable so i will buy this one new first and see if it solves the issue. And no.... a new original IBM LCD would have set me back another 340 Euro's, an amount i first of all I don't have and don't think the laptop is worth it. I ordered a screen f...

I managed to put in the new SXGA screen but it starts off black and then slowly starts in the right bottom corner vertically sending up colloms of different light. this then slowly happens also more and more to the left side of the screen. I opened the Thinkpad up again and went looking for a clue.....

Hello everybody, My T60's 3 year guarantee just expired and 2 weeks later my screen goes dim.... I promised to behave on this fora :) I would like to replace this with an SXGA, but i see people here talking about an inverter replacement to make this possible... I don't see this on the part list, it ...

here you go!

It's quite a bit more different then just a processor type

good luck!

Anyone found a solution for the muting of the volume, turning of the thinklight, brightness being set to full?

I keep turning my volume back on.......anyone????

reinstalled the hotkey driver driver, but still i have the exact same problem! This is a Business version also, and it can't get anymore annoying than this! I hope Lenovo will find out where this glitch is. For now, anybody any suggestions? Everything is fully up to date. Thanks ( to all the vista h...

i think this is because it has processes or programs writing, reading in the background.
When you have killed all of these, wich you don't need, it might go into sleep
Search on the forum, many posts about it already excist, harddrive activity, constantly accesing harddisk blablabla

Good idea, i hope a lot more developers and engineers are going to be impressed and inspired by the "Cradle to Cradle concept", don't know if Asus is working inspired on their ideas, but whatever floats the boat, i guess. I was absolutely stunned by the amazing ideas these men have brought us and Th...

but only a noisy harddrive, spin is not too bad, head seek noise is!!!

Hello Sugo, That sounds like a very good idea, some people here are also trying to find ways to boot from flash media, for instance CF in a ATA/IDE adapter or in the PCM-CIA slot, i saw you'd replied questions about this earlier. But booting or not (wich to me sounds ideal) i have a T60, and this do...

Thanks a lot! jkahng and sogo! Looking into the firmware for my drive and have checked the read and write boxes, didn't know that one!!! For one wcescomm.exe a process started by activeSync is one of the worst, making the harddisk work constantly!!!! Also firefox keeps my harddrive spinning as well,...

I hope the continuing activity can be explained by someone, and as for the clicky disk sound, i am not being fussy i feel, i think this could be a lot less noisy, but maybe someone has a tip for me
Another footnote, i updated the firmware of the Hitachi a week ago and it didn't fix this noise

No, i should have mentioned, i use XP and it is not a new computer.
So indexing should not be the issue, i even removed this function in XP by deinstalling it from configuration-->software-->windows apps

I found this mail, of someone claiming the noise from the harddrive/ harddisk while googling for my issue on the net. http://zurich.ai.mit.edu/hypermail/thinkpad/2007-02/0087.html I too find the head-seek noise, wich almost never stops, even now i am elliminating processes, gotten down to 50... very...

anyone else experiencing the same problems ymarker is discribing? Th hairline gap and the excessive heat issue, i would be very interested into wich X60/ X60s has these heat problems and who don't. Is there a way to get all the users of this serie, maybe trough a poll, to enlighten us about this iss...

Like i said, lose as much dead weight as you can, i did and it worked!!! Finnaly, having put my harddrive into 30 seconds no activity, no more spin, it did.... No activity what so ever! A very silent laptop, but no programs running, even starting firefox powered up the drive, i think it is igrxpers....

Are there people around there that have the same experience? I took the 7 version off my system, and i am finally starting to feel like i bought me a Dual Core laptop! I wouldn't mind installing it again, knowing that i won't slow me down. I am very impressed with all the Thinkvantage applications, ...

I have been getting the same constant harddrive activity, while i disabled al the unnescesary start-up's, services, pre loaded third party prog's and even a few of the Thinkvantage stuff, especially removing Client Sec. Solution 7, made my machine a lot more responsive!!! Not only when booting or sh...
