ok, the seller off eBay immediately refunded me, which is better than expected.

would a BOEHYDIS HT14P12-100 fit into and work in my 4:3 14.1" 8898-AGM t61?

I'd have one (the whole lid with perfect SXGA+) but shipping alone is already $61.75 from USA. Still kinda tempted, by that offer. Postage is kinda high. The guy i brought the last screen off from ebay managed to get it shipped for US $21.15 which seems really low, but it was well packaged and trac...

So, the screen came today, but it's definitely not 14 inch and looks to be very much a 15 inch lid assembly. I am cursed.

Anyone want to swap?

Lol,

any idea where i could get the screen i need other than ebay?

Problem is: X60/X61 screens are 12.1" and your T61 needs a 14.1" screen. This would be a most interesting mod... I don't think i'd be up to that challenge! Typo there; I've ordered a T60 screen for the T61. Not that a wouldn't mind an sxga for my x60.... This must be a native Penryn board. Nice one...

Thanks for the advice. I've ordered an x60 sxga screen off ebay. Hopefully this will allow me to get enough stuff on the screen at one time. I'll look into GDIPP i've been using MacType on my other laptops for font rendering, so i'll give this a go for sure. It's an 8898-AGM. At the moment it's got ...

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll probably get an SXGA+ screen/lid from a t60 in that case. Should be a straight swap, right? But the possibility of getting higher has intrigued me. Do you have any more details on the sharp screen from the dell donor? I plan on upgrading this machine to the max possi...

Hello, I've recently brought a T61 off Ebay. In the auction it was described as being a 15.4 inch model and i thought that it would have a screen resolution of at least 1200 by 800. However what arrived was a 14.1 inch model with a 1024 by 768 resolution screen. I was really looking for something wi...

Board dropped in straight away; no problems. The speed increase on the sata is definitely noticeable on my ssd. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help! The board should arrive tomorrow. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the quick response and the PM. One last thing are the heatsink and fan the same for the x61 as the x60?

Got the opportunity to get an x61 mobo FRU 43Y9022. Will this drop into an x60 chassis straight or will there be need for modification? Also where can i get the modified bioses for the x60/x61 that remove the white list? Thinking of doing this in order to get one of those broadcom hd pcie cards and ...

Sorry, i realise that i've not made myself clear, possible because i'm not sure what i'm asking myself. Ooops, basically i assumed that you could lock it at bios level with the fingerprint scanner, but it needs the pre-desktop installed.

Hello, I've had an x60 1707 for a while now. It came without restore discs or a hard drive. I've installed a liscenced copy of 7 home basic on it and everything is fine. I want to use the fingerprint scanner to lock the computer, but the bios setting suggest that it needs an application in the pre-d...
