That is one way. I know they're all good, the ones branded Lenovo.

Possibly you may find and get to enable hidden settings in the registry. This worked for older Synaptics touchpads, though, but I don't know about the new "Precision Touchpads".

I have a T430 70+ 6 cell with similar quirk. 58wh full charge capacity, 54wh design.

It depends on usage. SSD will increase boot times and drive based tasks like loading programs and reading lots of files. There will be speed improvements, but are they that necessary? If you reboot often, yes, if not, not really. If you work primarily on the web or have a lot of RAM, you'll get clos...

You won't get better than 480p videos on youtube with either HTML5 or Flash player with T43. It's too old. Palemoon for XP is a light browser but is a bit sucky, some websites don't work right... Palemoon starts faster but I'll be sticking with Firefox on my T42p and R50p. Using Firefox: go to about...

I bought some broken Thinkpad parts last week and included in them was this cute little I B M lenovo X60s. It's a 1703-3JU with L2400 Core Duo @ 1.66 Ghz and it already has a 2GB stick of DDR2 in it. What I wasn't expecting was it also had a 128GB SSD with a nearly empty Windows 7 Ultimate installed...

Thanks for the advice and assurances everyone. I'll get this fixed today!

I was wondering why my T410's left speaker stopped working and I found this: https://s21.postimg.org/sqmznnxad/Screen_Shot_02_16_17_at_12_35_AM.png Both wires are broken. I'm thinking they were either crushed under the keyboard or impaled by a palmrest screw. Are speaker wires special or something? ...

I believe later Lenovo R series used cheaper, slower fans and maybe lower quality electronics and production, so I suspect they may fail sooner than contemporary T series if put through similar usage duration and conditions. However so many used, and practically mint R series remain on the market fo...

2x4GB 2rx8 Hynix/SKHynix PC3-12800s 1600mhz (normal PC3-12800s, NOT PC3L-12800s) works in my X200, also works in my T500, running in both @1066 speeds. Low voltage PC3L does not work at all in these older models.

Mind you the TDP of the W520's Quadro 2000m is 55watts compared to 35w TDP of the T530 NVS 5400m. But it is true, the most powerful laptop would be W520 or W530. But you would not be able to use a 90W Power Supply with a W-series, you would need a large 135w or 170w brick. Thankfully W520 does have ...

For gaming T510 is even worse than previous year's T500 w/ 128 bit bus Radeon 3650. The T510's dedicated 64 bit bus NVS 3100m graphics are maybe 25% faster than its Intel HD integrated graphics and are a waste of power in an Optimus-lacking chipset with already poor energy efficiency. The NVS 3100m ...

I had a similar predicament with a T410. Disassembling the lid and reseating the LCD cable where it connects to the screen fixed the issue. I had already tried reseating the cable at the motherboard connector and that didn't work. If you can get the computer into an OS, helpful to have an external m...

People voted for Trump because his character was different than a typical politician, also since the DNC's corruption got revealed they didn't want Clinton. America also has a real problem with violent young liberals who believe in white-guilt and censorship. Trump's presidency can be seen as the ca...

The highlight of the '09 generation are, for me, the T500 and R500. R500 has a very sturdy case, it's plastic but very firm feeling all around. R500 and T500 can be refitted with higher resolution screen options than the 14.1" models. Another pro is the ease and straightforwardness of disassembling ...

That is a 14.1" Widescreen T61. 14.1" Wide has two vertical USB on the left and one vertical USB on the right. 15.4" has one vertical USB on the left and two horizontal USB on the right.

A mistake was made.

How time have passed. You can get T61 on feebay as cheap as T42s. T500 is getting there. T61 will turn 10 years old this year. Many people on this forum (not me) can remember when T61 was new, and it sure got backlash for its... odd design choices just like the newest latest and greatest Lenovo Thin...

Whereas I can get good condition used T500 or T410 genuine batteries off feebay for $10-$15, used OEM batteries for X200 and X201 cannot be found at such a cheap price. Confound these uniquely shaped batteries. It's stupid to pay more for a battery than what I paid for the laptop.... Are there any g...

I switched the CD from the right bay to the left so there wouldn't be a hole in the picture. I do have a ultrabay battery that I'm 90% sure is dead, another CD drive, and an HDD adapter somewhere.

I've been playing with these two new arrivals since the end of January. https://s29.postimg.org/60ptyoghj/DSCN4140.jpg On the left is an interesting T410i . The keyboard and palmrest are practically mint, but there's case damage at the left USB ports. It also had a perfect, vibrant, bright, clear LG...

The model numbers also changed between T60 and T61, with the only noticeable change afaik being the icon on the Windows key. The emblem was off-center on T60 / Z60 / early Z61 / R60, and centered on T61 / late Z61 / R61. Z60: 39T7118 - ALPS 39T7178 - Chicony 39T0958 - NMB T61: 42T3209 - ALPS 42T3273...

That makes sense. Thanks for explaining.

Just for reference the FRU matches that of coveted NMB keyboard.

"The ThinkPad P51s: The laptop features a new chassis that's half a pound lighter than the last gen model," So P51s is no longer renamed W550s. No, after the T570 HMM became available, it was very clear that P51s will be using the same chassis as T570. T570 & P51s HMM: https://download.lenovo.com/i...
