FS: T43p with dead bulb, $90 shipped
Posted: Wed Feb 12, 2014 4:22 am
Hello!
I have here this T43p with a very beautifully well kept exterior- with no noticeable wear and a near mint condition. The lid does have some scuffing and marking on it, but has no gashes or wear, and looks great from a distance. And the inside is pretty much close to mint-the stickers look good and fantastic.
Before I continue I should make clear-although the screen installed is the original IDTech UXGA, and it does display picture, the polarizer might be bust. The sides are darkened, affecting the picture on brighter images, and this effect is in the LCD matrix, not the bulb. The bulb is actually a good one that I stole from a G40's busted XGA panel. The panel is definitely usable and will allow you to effectively use the machine and power it on, but as a collector's piece, the screen will have to be replaced.
The mainboard and V3200 ATI chip functions 100% properly and I've been able to load Windows XP up on it perfectly fine with no issues. The machine currently has a Pentium M 2.0 GHz CPU installed, and I have not installed the modded BIOS, so it is just the vanilla IBM T4x BIOS it had when I received the laptop. As a result it will only agree with the Wi-Fi card currently installed in it, and it'll 2010 any Hard Drives it doesn't like. I believe the machine has 1GB of RAM in it, I'll report back. And- I don't have a Hard Drive to include.
I have the HDD cover and a caddy too, and I can include a charger for a little extra, but I'd rather not if you don't need it, because I'm running short on the older chargers.
Without a charger and HDD, as it is stated above, I can ship it to your door regardless for $90. Again this machine would be a brilliant collector's piece-it looks fantastic and just needs a good UXGA or replacement screen to function properly.
