Thinkpads Forum

I bricked the BIOS on a T410 that I purchased on craigslist for a friend who was a on budget.

I know the screen, keyboard, dvd drive, 160gig hard drive, wifi and 2 gigs of ram work.

No battery or charger though as I am using those.

I would say this machine is worth $40 bucks including shipping for parts? You can use it for parts or just try to send it in to resolder the BIOS. Laptop itself is in physical pristine condition.

OR, I would like to trade this for an older thinkpad that has XP and a parallel port. I need to hook it up to an older parallel port thermal printer.

I have outstanding feedback here

What's the 7-character model number of that poor thing?

2522-25U

It needs a forever home ^_^

Bleh, ram and hd downgrade, and theres no fingerprint reader. that being said the plastic is ALL impeccably new.

Just a quick look on ebay shows several 'tested, working' mainboards for around $30.
