Hi All, I have sealed in box Genuine IBM (not generic ones) Brand New High Capacity Li-ion extended battery T40/R50 series Thinkpads. Part Number: 08K8197 I bought this battery because I thought I want to buy T42 but I got T42P instead (which already have 9 cell battery included). Asking $99 (plus s...

Hi, I had 2373GRu and the right palm rest is getting hot (more like warm actually) so easily. I heard that its because the video chip which located near the touchpad. From the forum I see that 2373GRU may have short fan that may cause the laptop to be warm. Is this correct? I thought I had a perfect...

Hi,

Does anyone know whay model 2373M1U is no longer available from Lenovo mastercard website (http://www-131.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/store ... logId=-840)?

Hi,

Has anyone bought T42P from Lenovo website?

Do they replace the IBM label on the top of the case to Lenovo or it is still IBM?

I am just afraid they change it to Lenovo logo (that would be aweful).

Do they still offer 3 years warranty?

Do you remember whats included in your new 2373GVU box when you first got it?

I bought GVU from ebay and he claimed its new but it does not include the extra trackpoints and 1 mini screw (for the removable CD/DVD drive I assume) which I recived with my old 9XU.

Inside the bigger metal hinge.
Yeah I think its a cable for wireless and blutooth I believe.

The LCD on my T42P is kinda loose, is there any way to tighten the hinges?

It seems like the rapid restore add soe backup files as different partition to the HD.

After I do re-install I got back the 51GB (minus the partition for recovery).

Weird

Hi,

Hi, I just got 2373GVU T42P and I realized that the HD is only 30 GB =( I saw the model number is the one for 60GB 7200 rpm. I know IBM reserver some space for the Recovery software but does it take about the half of the HD? I tried to use the Recovery to reset to the manufacturer setting. The softw...

Hi,

Does anyone know the IBM phone and fax number to update warranty for Thinkpad if you buy it from third party vendor (it originally has manufacture date and I need to change it to invoice date)?


Thanks in advance

jdhurst,

Do you still have the IBM phone number and fax number to ask them to change the warranty date?


Thanks

Will the seller be responsible to let IBM know that the warranty start date need to be changed to invoice date instead of the manufacture date? Has anyone bought thinkpad from third party seller like egghead or buy.com or even Bill? Do you have to do anything or the seller responsible to do it for y...

Thanks for all the input guys.

I am thinking of getting GVU right now with extra memory (since I a running Visual Studio).

I guess 1.8 and 2.0 should not make much different.

Hey all, I am pretty close to buy my thinkpad T42P and I am down to 2 models: 2373GVU and 2373KUU? Which one do you guys think better buy for the money.

Are the Thinkpad machines (expecially y T42 series) easily broken or need service?

Hi Thinkpad experts, When is actually the warranty starts for IBM thinkpad?

He shows the picture with sealed box and IBM label showing the serial number and model. W...
