Re: WTB: t42 m10 long fan and ati 9600 mobo
Hi and thanks for the reply. You are right but it does have most of the symptoms: When it did boot it would freeze on the login screen after typing a bit, then unfreeze 30sec later It won't boot to an external display It used to work once in a while and turn off lcd when moved (this was 3 years ago)...

If you don't have any programs that might not work if you uninstall them for whatever reason, i think you should reinstall your OS

Re: PC Doctor ThinkVantage Toolbox -- WinXp 32-bit
I have a PCDRWIN in the IBMTOOLS folder that I took from my t42 recovery partition, is that what you are looking for?
