Re: Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

good evening dear forum members! After a long time I remembered that I had asked for help with the screen swap issue on my TP600. Well, I have to tell you that it was PERFECTLY POSSIBLE! That said, it is not an operation that I would recommend, but for me the important thing was to succeed in the un...

Re: Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

From a logical point of view I cannot say that you are wrong, there are many difficulties to be faced and simply swapping motherboards would be easier. However, I personally think it is worth trying, maybe it will be useful to someone else. In any case, apart from the hardware, I found some info in ...

Re: Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

someone pointed out to me that the welds were not performed very well. Yes, I know, in fact I will check as soon as possible if the welds make contact and there are no shorts. I found the SN75LVDS84 manual and the connector pinout on the net, but without the wiring diagram everything is very difficu...

Re: Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

I see the matter has been misunderstood. As specified in my first post, I have two complete TP600 2645s, one of which recently purchased "to be tested" to be used for spare parts.

Re: Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

thank you for your kind reply. Actually, if I have understood correctly (I'm not exactly a native speaker) what you suggest is exactly what I have already done. Obviously I changed the whole "lid", but the problem arises on the mainboard, which required many micro-weldings. I wanted to understand if...

Still more questions about a possible LCD upgrade of the Thinkpad 600

Dear friends of the Forum, I'm aware that this question has been asked before, including for other TP models, but still wanted to share my experience. A long time ago I recovered a 600 with a perfectly functional 12.1" screen, which unfortunately suffered a bad fate after a few months, having fallen...
