ive tried both the hotkey driver and the access connections, neither of which did the trick . any other ideas?

i just did a fresh install of XP from a regular XP CD and am having trouble finding a program. Which program do i need to download on ibm's support site to get the little window that you get when you press Fn + F5 thats lets you enable/disable the wireless and bluetooth? TIA

sorry to bump the post but this is exactly whats going on and the sound is REALLY annoying me. is there anything that can be done about it?

ive got the 14" sxga+ and i have to say its a little dissapointing. i had a 600m before and its only slightly better when it comes to colors. its a little washed out compared to some of the other lcd's ive seen.

wait, how are you getting dvi? port replicator?

i have a t42 with 1400x1050 and wouldnt want anything else. i love workspace and have never had any problems reading text.

yup, this is really easy. first you need to create a map batch file, to do so first open up notepad. to map drives type in net use z: \\computername\resource\resource2 this will map \\computername\resource\resource2 to the Z: drive finally go to file save but save it as something.bat now all you hav...

it really is extremely easy to make your own xp cd. just grab this file and follow the directions here. itll take 10 minutes max. if you dont use nero, there are other burning directions on the site i linked earlier.

you dont need their cd, you can make your own xp cd. all you need is the is386 folder found on your c: drive go here to see how to create a cd out of just the i386 folder. if you still cant figure it out, feel free to pm me and i can help you out.

sorry, ive never seen that but there is another option. get one of these and just plop the hard drive into a regular computer to save the data.

i think this is very far from the truth. support doesnt get better than when the manufactorer supports linux.

why not go with the 15" SXGA+ model? you get the 1400x1050 resolution but its stretched out over 15" so it shouldnt be as bad as your A series. and that way you get all that nice screen real estate. as for the video card. if youre not doing anything 3d, then dont worry about the 32 mb. anything you ...

you can set those options in the active protection program also. the reason for it is so yo ucan set the noise level

i believe the 2200bg or teh ibm a/b/g card should both work fine. if you need a, then get the the ibm, otherwise, ive had no problems with the 2200BG. they can be had on ebay for $40. however, im not sure if these will qualify for ibm's "white list". hopefully someone else will know

i can tell you its not the 2001fp cause i use that on my 9800 pro for my desktop and it rotates just fine

btw, i LOVE this monitor, the user above is the first time ive seen someone talk so negativly about this monitor. check out the anandtech review.

its 400 mhz quad pumped, which means 100 mhz fsb, however, the memory runs async with the bus at 333 mhz ddr (pc2700). no need to spend extra on pc3200, this isnt something they will be able to fix in the bios, it a chipset limitation. so unless you will be buying a NEW thinkpad with a NEW chipset, ...

it is a real line in just like any desktop

the 2001fp is amazing. i use it on my desktop and it is gorgous. it is a little dark, but you get 16ms response times 20.1" 1600x1200 and beutiful colors. cant ask for anything more.

as of the t42, it is it's own partition.

i repartition usined partition magic and the installed linux/lilo, after this, my recovery partition was messed up. whether it was parition magic or lilo that did this i dont know but the point is it didnt work. this isnt a big deal since you can just use the recovery cds. parition worked great to r...

imo, the best way to do this is create images of the cd's using isorecorder and then mounting the iso's using daemon tools

not sure what country you should get them in but the revocery cd's will restore the recovery partition. i would try calling canada support first, maybe they will get the cd's to you faster.

am positive about what i said. it doesnt make sense for ibm to carry both pc2100 and 2700 since you can use pc2700 in place of pc2100 just fine. buy the crucial. its awesome memory

1.) a t40 uses pc2100 memory (266 mhz ddr), it would be a waste of money to get pc2700 because your memory does not run at that speed. 2) both of those memory sticks are DDR sdram 3.) ibm actually uses crucial memory for some of the thinpads from what ive read 4.) there will be no performance differ...

i did the bios first then the mcp a while ago and everything worked fine

i bet i know why your update matrix isnt working. the reason the downloading isnt working is because you probably have a pop up blocker installed. a pop up appears for you to click i agree. if you are using the google toolbar, just hold down ctrl and then click the download link so it allows for the...

i used a sewing needle to pull it up. its just a sticker and comes up nice and easy

T42 23733VU and i have a samsung

visual styles uses winxp built in theme engine, so there is next to no resource hit, windowblinds uses a 3rd party program to change the look of windows which uses resources. winstyle, although ive never used it, seems like it allows you to do a few themeing things at once. it does use windows theme...
