Re: what is the max performance CPU I can upgrade into a G41 ThinkPad??
$65 U.S.D, seems a lot; for such an old CPU. I sure wish the g41 machine was compatible with some different processor options/availability, I thought this machine ran the desktop variant of P4 in which case, like some of the P4 extreme processors that came out late in the p4's lifeline. Actually clo...

Re: what is the max performance CPU I can upgrade into a G41 ThinkPad??
Hey again, on this one, guys!!, I am ready to buy, CPU upgrade for my G41 ThinkPad, we've discussed that length on this board that the Intel P4 552 @ 3.46 GHz was the best we could do as far as performance, on a stock G41 Motherboard... That being said; I believe I found the best price on the web, (...

DVD - RW multi-burner drive for IBM G41 ThinkPad
Is there an internal DVD drive capable of burning DVDs that is compatible with the g41 series of ThinkPad when owned by the IBM division circa 2005 this model came out? I believe it's IDE technology so the newer multi drives won't fit but did IBM offer DVD burning technology in the internal drives w...

Re: what is the max performance CPU I can upgrade into a G41 ThinkPad??
So is the P4 (552)@3.46, the absolute fastest one, Ican put in there. I know sometimes unofficially; the machine will work with some other configurations made by Intel. So if anyone knows, if there's an even quicker unit I can put in this G41, I would like to know what that is, as I want to complete...

what is the max performance CPU I can upgrade into a G41 ThinkPad??
Hello all; My inquiry today is what is the fastest/most powerful, processor I can implant into a g41 ThinkPad as an upgrade?

Re: Highest performance GPU compatible in a W701?
I honestly don't know, what this machine has, for GPU, weather it be the 2800 or 3200 FX, as i can't power it on. Not sure why that is exactly either so hoping not a whole motherboard issue, I have new i7 CPU unit ready to go it anyways, so she's opening up for surgery but that'd suck. Would it be w...

Fastest i7 CPU for W701
Hey party people!
I Just bought a W701 Thinkpad off ebay, i think the highest speed i7 available stock with this system was only 2.0Ghz for sum reason? But I figured someone must know some alternative i7's that we can stuff in it, with much more power... Hopefully!
Thanks All!

Re: What just happened?? W500 crash
Yes, when the RAM was removed i got the series of beeps. Upon reinstalling it i got no beeps. But still just a black screen. I tried power cycling it to no prevail. I held power button with no A/c or Batt. For 20secs multiple, times. But nothing. No splash screen, no Bios options?
