Re: Middleton BIOS update on T61 7658-RRU?

I do have one more questions. The bios kit came with a ctrl/alt swap feature in one of the versions. Is this a permanent swap, or user changeable though the bios. I would like to change it, but want to be able to go back.

Thanks for your help.

Re: Middleton BIOS update on T61 7658-RRU?

Well, I have a T61 T8100 with 4GB or ram running win 7 64. I just purchased a 120GB Intel 330 SSD, so I'd really like Sata II. Where is the latest ISO? Also read something about a fix or mod for fan control. Is this something that I should be using as well?

Many thanks.

Re: Middleton BIOS update on T61 7658-RRU?

I assume that it will also work on the T61 8100. Can someone point me to a step by step install guide?

Many thanks.
