Re: 51nb's X62: latest update

@E350 I bought the entire barebones unit (add my own RAM/SSD/Battery) since I figured they would be able to build it to fit better than I'd ever be able to :oops: My X61 is an overclocked T7200, 2x4GB RAM, 1024x768 TN screen. The only two things that I think would improve the X62 from 'stock' form w...

Re: 51nb's X62: latest update

Re: 51nb's X62: latest update

My X62 arrived today via DHL. The USB ports are properly placed, but the headphone and mic jack are kind of googley-eyed. It appears they used a lid with the WWAN antenna bulge on the right side. I haven't taken it out of the plastic wrap yet, but it looks like a super clean chassis with no sticker ...

Re: (picture link) This fell out of my motherboard

I had to disassemble my T500 to clean a juice spill once. The same piece fell out. Never could figure out WTH that part is or where it belonged. Probably somewhere in the trash now. :lol:

Re: Interest in upgrade your T420/T420s/T430/T430s to FHD 1080p

Hi all, Looking for a bit of help. I purchased a B140HAN01.3 and installed the LCD + kit into my T420s with NVS Optimus, Intel HD3000+NVS4200M The screen brightness doesn't seem to behave as it begins flickering when I lower it from 100% brightness. It also occasionally flickers at 100% brightness. ...

WTB: X220 Battery

Looking for genuine X220 battery, ideally one that is not super worn out. 4 or 6 or 9 cell, doesn't matter. I don't have a battery at all!

Local meet up in Downtown Toronto, or shipped to M5H3Y2.

Thanks!

Re: X61 SXGA+ mod cable

Might be a silly Q. How do you take off the plastic connector? I got my hands on a spare LCD cable and am interested in trying this out.
