This R52 has been updated with ttav134's BIOS, which provides:
- no 1802 Error, install ANY wifi-card
- no 2010 Error, install ANY HD or SSD (but must be SATA-I compatible!)
- Slic2.1 allows Vista and W7 to activate from IBM/Lenovo Recovery Disks

This is one good-looking machine, with only a little shine on the keyboard.
All the rest is in great shape, earning at least 8.5-9/10.

Please note: due to the new IPS screen, a different LCD-cable was used, after which the LCD no longer switches off when you close the lid with the machine running.
However, you can set the machine to switch off the LCD when going into Standby or Hibernation.
