You could also hold down the SHIFT key while shutting down which disables shutdown hibernation.

Another tune I can't get out of my head is from this Australian band Girl And Girl.

See them on youtube.

Glad you liked it.

I agree its like Natalie.

They've been around awhile.

Just heard them for the first time at a local college station WFUV. You can stream whats broadcast and view playlists on their website WFUV.ORG.

Brad

Hurray For The Riff Raff is my latest discovery.

See them on youtube.

Would not hesitate to take up the PiZzA EnGiNeEr on any of his offers. Great value, quickly shipped and well packed. Better than described. Thanks

Can't answer your question.

But check this out.

Brad

Careful.

They could be aluminum and very easily stripped.

Don't ask me how I know.

Brad

I have used something like this.

Brad

See this youtube video. I haven't seen a bottom cover glued. There is always the first time.

Brad

That's quite a setup.

I am interested in the wireless you upgraded to.

Where and how is it installed?

Brad

I just had to power up a 770z that had an old DOS program I needed to look at. From February 1999. Not super speedy but worked perfectly. Even had the correct date and time as I changed the CMOS battery 4-5 years ago. Took me longer to locate it than to look at what I needed. Just lucky I guess. Brad

You can see a review of the P71 here.

The system battery is not internal.

I have two with the IPS LCD and the Xeon CPU available if you are interested.

Send a message.

Brad

Sorry you are having trouble.

For the newer ThinkPads you can see the parts list with the serial number lookup.

Even so though another FRU could have been substituted. The FRU could be different because of the manufacturer or revision.

The Samsung PM9A1 FRU 5SS0W79495 which is 2Tb is available in the P1G4 model 20Y3 that I just picked up.

Amen...

...Still using the W530.

Well said Mike.

A few keyboards and cleaned irregularly its served and continues to serve me well.

I can notice that some newer ThinkPads seem faster but like Mike says do I really have the need for speed?

Happy ThinkPadding to all...

Brad

If you are careful and fortunate you can find a working OEM battery on eBay.

I picked up a 9 cell OEM battery from this seller a few months ago.

Great hearing everyone's W530 stories. I recently gave mine a good cleaning and re-pasting. Still the workhorse as ever. I have had several through the years. The one I'm working with right now has been powered on nearly 24/7/365 for the last 5 years or so. One reason is that it has everything I nee...

I installed 32Gb x 1 in a T470s with 4Gb soldered and the BIOS reported 36Gb.

W530 is several years older.

Brad

Google says

biochemical oxygen demand

May not apply to ThinkPads though.

Brad

I searched far and wide and missed it. I looked at the W series and not the specific W541.

I work on not letting the facts get in the way of my replies

Thanks for the update.

Happy Holidays!

Brad

Happy Holidays! The only Lenovo factory recovery media available will be for the operating systems that this model shipped with. Since this model debuted in 2008 and Windows 10 was released in 2015 there would be no Lenovo Windows 10 recovery media. An option would be a retail install of Windows 10 ...

All the best to you young man!

Should I ever be in your neighborhood I'll be sure to look you up.

Wishing you many many more years of happy and healthy retirement.

Brad

There is no other way other than a very similar machine if you are (very) lucky.

Brad

I think RBS maybe on to something.

Hopefully you can borrow a 170w adapter to try. If you were closer I could send you one to try.

Brad

It's a fancy X61s.

Here is a short review.

Hopefully Bill is enjoying his Reserve Edition.

Brad

How is Dave?

How about this?

If you are familiar with a screwdriver and have a little patience it can be accomplished successfully.

Brad

That is a nicely configured W530 that has quite a bit of onboard storage. My W530 has been getting along nicely for several years running W7P on a Samsung Lenovo FRU 512Gb 2.5" SSD. Haven't needed much more than this one SSD. I am not editing or storing video on board. Just mostly work related stora...
