I've heard from techs that data corruption and damage happens at a very high rate to the newer high capacity 2.5" drives, not sure if it is related to speed, but the denser platters apparently wear out

you might have enabled sticky keys by accident, that happens when you press shift 5 or 6 times in quick succession

can't remember how to turn it off off-hand, but I don't think your keyboard is broken

Yeah, I want to give it a shot though. I'm confident I can make it playable, it is my hobby to see how far I can push my T23. Its annoying that the bungie people went so far out of their way to deny me the chance.

it is officially unsupported, but the only thing that stops it from running is a check that it executes when it starts up. if someone knew how to bypass this the game would work fine with certain settings disabled. it is possible to start it in safe mode then change all the settings manually each ti...

If I find a used pcmcia soundblaster I'll pick it up and post about any performance increase.

Someone here must know someone who is good with 3dAnalyze, come on guys I really want to get Halo working.

Hey guys, I recently picked up an ultrabay 2000 hard disk caddy for my t23, (now I've got a 7k60 plus the original 40gb drive), anywho... I prefer to leave the caddy empty to decrase weight (as opposed to with the hard disk in it or a combo drive) while traveling but for whatever reason it is adding...

I'm very interested in these parts, no one has any of them?

I've ordered a set of extras and gave the soft dome a shot. I that with the soft dome I'm able to set the trackpoint to a much higher speed and control it more accurately than with the classic cats tongue. Although it doesn't grip as well when my hand sweats and it seems to be sort of coushy it is d...

That is excellent for 236 cycles, I didn't take notice of the cycles of the battery that came with my used T23 for a while. Apparently after a few months of use it had 12 cycles I think and was first used in January 05, it held a nearly perfect charge. Off the top of my head I think its lost 2mwh.

Yeah, the main reason I want them is because with reasonable force you can pull out the hard disk thing, the maintenance manual just refers to it as a "security screw" within the "screw kit" under #26P9654

There are two, one which holds the hard disk casing with the IR port and audio jacks in place and one which holds the ultrabay disk in place. You'll notice empty holes for these on the bottom of m ost T2x series I think. I nearly got my hands on these but apparently the ones for the T30 are too long...

Not exactly IBM related, but my uncle has a whole bunch of filing cabinets with the Commodore logo inscribed on them

One more tip to shave your boot time (got mine to 12.04 seconds)... DISABLE AUTO DETECTION OF EMPTY IDE SLOTS Submitted by Bold_Fortune : http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...=222045&hl=boot "Saved 1.5 Seconds Off My Boot Time, I know I know, Big Deal" It worked for me! Another quick trick f...

Hey guys, I know some of you must have T2x series parts lying around. I'm looking for a working 1200 or 1266mhz 478 pin Pentium IIIm for my T23. I had a brand new in box one pending on ebay but the seller seems to have disappeared. I'd much rather buy from you guys anyways. As you can see in my sign...

Copy all the fonts from your fonts control panel folder to a backup then delete all from the control panel folder. Things might go a bit nutty, but windows will re install mandatory fonts on reboot, then just copy all the times fonts or anything else you would like to keep from your backup folder. A...

no, the t23 uses 144pin pc133, the t30 has ddr ram, not sure how many pins

Don't want to brag, but I just snagged a brand new in box IBM brand T30 battery manufactured in September 04 for $60 Canadian

I'm looking at buying one of these

With my new T30 battery plus my old battery with only 8% wear I'm going to haul my t23 everywhere.

definitely check out RFD redflagdeals.com, almost all are local traders and have excellent prices, thats where I picked up my nearly new fourth revision combo drive for $50 and a brand new T30 battery for $60

I'm very confident it will run fine on my T23 with a notoriously horrible video card (16mb super savage icx, other specs below). Of course I'm never one for eye candy and don't mind having all the goofy effects disabled. I wouldn't panic. Yesterday, my Windows 98 virtual box did an upgrade. XP will ...

the t20-t22 only had one usb port, all t23s have two to my knowledge

I remember browsing a trading forum and a guy had pictures with just the edges of his T2x machine running os x. What a horrible operating system, at least on powerpc machines.

Classic for me, though once I get around to ordering some extras I'd like to try the Soft Dome.

Don't want to brag, but I've got aT23 (with cdrw/dvd, usb media and netbios services and other commonly used stuff all functional) that boots in 14.57 seconds. See my specs below :) Haven't read the whole thread, someone might have said my secrets already, but here they are again: defragment frequen...

I got a Hitachi 7K60 for my T23, the price has recently dropped reasonably. Its idle power consumption is actually lower than the stock drive's. I've put 8 days and 3 hours on it so far, only got it a few weeks ago. I'm getting my money's worth :D My other 40gb drive (which wasn't stock) had about 1...

Has anyone ever tried to use 3D Analyzer to run games that recquire T & L shading?It would be fun to run Halo!May also work for Civilisation4. I've been trying to tweak halo's config file for ages now to get it to work, it starts up and runs fine in safe mode but to start it normally it notices tha...

Nice pictures.

"think CUSTOMER first..."

Doesn't that sign make you feel all warm and fuzzy?

The first half-life and cs work very snappy on my T23, takes less time to load a level than half-life2 on my athlon 64 4000 with a geforce 6800

If I wanted something that looks like a powerbook or a dell I'd buy a powerbook or dell, when I buy a thinkpad I want a thinkpad.

This may seem strange, but I've seen the exact same screen while trying to install SuSE 7.2 on a Toughbook CF-25. It was caused by lilo not being installed correctly, for me it wanted to boot the system from a floppy disk.
