Que tal, Hombre Amel.

On the back of your WL router, you will find a small hole. Push in it with a wire, this will reset it and the password will be gone.

Then, if you need it again protected, start a new setup of a desired PW.

Hello, James. Long time. A very easy question today, how can I change my profile ? I now have two G41s and I exchanged the 365 for a $100.00 rebate on a new laptop, it was still working. Another question.... how are you doing ? I see that you are still busy here, good on you. JP. Admin note : Split ...

Hello, ajkula66. I have two G41, great machine. On the latest models, there is no power setup icon on the task bar. One machine has a 3+ CPU and runs around the other that has a 2.66 CPU. Do you know where to look for the power settings ? It used to be that I could control the CPU fan from the task ...

Thanks SPadder, your post are fine, to the point and down to my level.

Have a great day. JP.

Good morning SJTP. You wrote : >> Even that your RAM is rated at PC3200, it is running at PC2700 in your G41. That is because RAM doesn't generate clock. They take clock from the system. If the G41 sends it 167Mhz (333Mhz double data rate), then it is running at PC2700. >> The RAM rating just means ...

Hello RBS, how are things ? You said : DDR333 = PC2700 DDR400 = PC3200 Your DDR400/PC3200 modules are running at DDR333/PC2700 speed, which is the G4x speed. The G4x has an FSB of 400MHz. Your G40/G41 can take up to 2x 1GB PC2700 RAM. Maybe you should read up on the specs of your laptop? Well, it no...

Good morning, RBS. ( But you will not get me to drink Guiness ). >> Not to worry, eventually you'll be in the know too, and able to help others. I am not planning on this, you know, I turned 77 last July and do not have enough time ahead. So, I depend on this forum to get valid information. I have n...

Good morning RBS.

I typed at you thus :

>> Try not being too narky about this, you have the advantage of knowledge. JP.

You still and for ever will have the advantage of knowledge. Thanks.

Hello Thinkpader. >> As AJ had explained, your memory will run at PC2700 speed. This is because the RAM itself does not generate a clock. It takes the clock from your system, in this case PC2700 speed. There is nothing I like more than an eloquent reply, to the point and easy to read/grab. I had a f...

OK, >>And while we're at it, stop talking about 200 or 400 RAM, it's PC3200 or DDR400.

Try not being too narky about this, you have the advantage of knowledge. JP.

HarryC, hello >> JP, a technical guy you are not . RAM size is measured in MB (MegaBytes) or GB (GigaBytes) not MHz (Megahertz). Ooooh ! I hate this. That got by me even on a reread of my post. So sorry. You are right on two counts, it is GB and then I am not too technical. I reel with the blows but...

Very good morning to you ajkula66. Thanks a mega for your comeback to me. >> Your machine will run on PC3200 (not PC2-3200) but at PC2700 speeds, it's that simple. It will take 2GB of RAM with no questions asked, all of G4x units do. This question was for a second G41, my first one does run on 2 G o...

Hello RBS. I like people who do not give up easy ! Good going on your part. I find on page 50 of my .pdf HMM, the relevent information. Looking at my G41, it says that it has 2 G of RAM at DDR3200 (200). I ignore if this is the rate of the sticks or what. The MoBo is rated at 166 x 2 = 333. This ari...

Hello, RBS. You kindly wrote to me thus : DDR200 = PC1600 DDR266 = PC2100 DDR333 = PC2700 DDR400 = PC3200 AFAIK there is no such thing as an SDDRxxx, but that is moot here. Your DDR400/PC3200 modules are running at DDR333/PC2700 speed, which is the G4x speed. The G4x has an FSB of 400MHz. Your G40/G...

OK, I will forgive you about the ATA vs SATA question. Let us all keep all of our feathers then. I got a further question for you, ready ? I run a G-41, it says that it will accept PC2700 for a max of 512 MBs, I have in it now 2 x 1 GBs at PC3200, fooled the system ! The question is that these are S...

Hello ekdya. To find out if your TP is WPA capable, you first have to consider the AP. Get into the setup screen for it, often accessd via a URL of 192.168.1.1, your MMV. Then get into the setup for your WL card. You are on your own, more or less. If this is not possible in your Thinkpad, get a PCMC...

Hello RBS.
How can you say that a sata HD will run in an ATA Thinkpad. What about the connectors ?
Totally different.
You will loose a feather. JP.

Hello gang. In regards to this much maligned HD PW, I have done a funny test here. I have two Thinkpads with PW protected HD, I swapped the HDs. Let me call one A and tother B. Their set PW would be aaaaa and bbbbb. The A HD in B Thinkpad came to live with the aaaaa PW and vice-versa, the B HD in A ...

OK the price is "offers", $1.00 + and stamps.

Hello.
Offering two sticks of 256 MBs for Thinkpads. These were replaced by 2 x 1 giggers. They are PC2700, DDR 333, SDRAM, non-ECC, non-Parity.

Offers + stamps and they go. JP.

Hello. Have you considered doing an image of your current HD now ? I do quite often the procedure that you refer to, specifically HD replacement and to be sure, I do first an image of the present HD then image it back to the new drive. I use True Image, (TI). It is possible to make a self booting ER...

Hello James.

You wrote to me : PM sent.

None received ! Nice '08 to you. JP

Hello James and have a Merry. Quite the following you have here, congrats. As you offered some other repairs, here I ask. Can you substitude a strong metal, SS if possible, for the anchorage of the left hinge in an i Series 1300 ? The ones from IBM are in " white metal " and will split after umpteen...

Well, Robert, I have not yet gone the new R&R 4 route. I will read on it first, you know the RTFM stuff. I rely on an image of my HD for safety, I use True Image and I am quite happy with it, takes much less time than a redo from Z:\ or from the 7 CDs. Different folks ! Have a Merry. JP

Good morn, Robert. I would like your opinion on R&R 4, is it worth the trouble ? I have heard that it is somehow problematic in some aspect. Did you upgrade from 3.1 or later, did you have to uninstal the previous version before doing the D/L and instal of Ver 4 ? A curious mind would like to know. ...

Carbon, how are you ? >>You have to delete all the partitions and restore from the 7 cd set in order to make another recovery set. Sound like a catch 22 to me, to make the CDs you have to restore from the CDs. Tee ! hee !. I am lucky, I got a set from IBM. I could not make them, it quit a CD #3, I c...

Thanks lost Torontonian. ( Lost in LA. ) >> I believe if you do a factory restore once again the option will reappear, again. I have only done one full restore and can not remember seeing that option showing up again. I just checked and it is not there, anew. Some have said that there is a way to re...

Monsieur Bill Morrow, good morning.

Trying, looking for the " Make your Restore CDs" prompt in my G41, I can not find it anymore. DO you know if it gets deactivated after making a set ? To prevent doubling up for friends ???

Thinkpad Addict, hello. You will not be sorry with this G41. It is a bit heavy but intended as a desktop replacement, not a traveling companion. I have had mine for close to three years now and really enjoy it. I only wished that the DVD was also a "buner", only a ROM as it is. I have 512 megs of RA...
