Re: Windows 10 on x220t

looks like a friendly mod moved my thread over =)

I saw a few posts about the x220 but not the tablet.. Curious how the tablet support is...

Thanks!

Windows 10 on x220t

Hey guys, I'm thinking of picking up a refurb x220t and installing windows 10 on it. I've already gone through some troubles getting win 10 "stable" on my x61s and was wondering if there are similar known issues with the x220t? ie. * Is the multi-touch panel fully supported? * is there a gyro for au...

Re: Best Wireless Card for x61s?

IIRC, the x61s only has 2 antennas. Should I be getting the 9280 instead?

Thanks,

Best Wireless Card for x61s?

Hey Guys, I'm thinking of upgrading the wireless card on my x61s. I've already replaced it once to an ABG compatible card but I'd like to get it N/AC compatible. I've already done the middleton bios too. Are there any recommendations? All the threads i'm reading are like 2 years old, recommending in...

Re: CPU Fan or System Cooling Policy issue in Windows 10?

Sooo.. I found out about tpfancontrol... great tool and i was able to crank the CPU fan to it's max (set to manual value to 255)... Fan spinning at 7800 RPM, lots of noise... but even with CPU utilization <25%, the CPU Temp remains at 65 degrees C. crazy... I guess I should open up the system, do so...

CPU Fan or System Cooling Policy issue in Windows 10?

Hey Guys, I've been playing around with windows 10 on my x61s for a few weeks now and am pretty happy but I've been trying to diagnose a performance issue that I've finally been able to flesh out. Essentially, when ever I've been playing some high bitrate videos, I noticed the CPU throttles down to ...

Re: Trackpoint center button scroll WORKS in Windows 10

hallelujah!

I'm going to give this a shot when I get home tonight.....

edit: this is awesome... my thinkpad suddenly has a new life to it... it's amazing how something so little can affect the usability of a device.

Re: support for older generation trackpoints

How did you install the ultranav driver? Everytime i try, it doesn't detect any hardware.

Did you force install it (specify disk/location when manually updating driver)?

And if you don't mind, exactly what version of ultranav did you use?

Thanks,

support for older generation trackpoints

Hey Guys, I have an x61s with the trackpoint version prior to the "ultranav" generation of trackpoints. I have Windows 10 installed and everything is pretty much running except the middle mouse button scrolling doesn't work on metro apps/start menu. Anyone here know of a way of customizing the tp4ta...

Anyone try Windows 10 on x61s?

Not sure if I should just post this into the Windows 10 subforum but I'll try here first. Anyone have Windows 10 running on their X6x Thinkpad? I did the upgrade on my X61s and 95% of things are working except for a few things: 1) trackpoint middle button scrolling doesn't work in metro apps. 2) mut...

Hmm.. i didn't know that about 802.11a...

well regardless of the frequencies and ranges... Will the IBM 802.11a/b/g card fit and work with the x24's antenna/bios/etc?

I have a cordless phone that operates on the 2.4 ghz range and that kills my wireles connection everytime.. =(

And since 802.11a works at the 5ghz range, it should be smooth sailing.

Excuse me for digging up this old thread but i'm in the exactly same boat as the original poster. I have an x24 and want to upgrade to a minipci 802.11a/b/g card I already have the router (dual band a/b/g) so and want to standardize on 802.11a. Did any of you manage to figure out if the ibm 802.11a/...
