There are no compatibility issues between theT41 and T42 machines, and you can swap all the parts between them, boards included. FYI, Intel GPU R51's will work for XGA, Intel GPU R52's will work or XGA or SXGA+.HarryC
It means that I can buy motherboard t41/t42/t43 to my t40p? Regards, Thomas.
Yes any of those systemboards will fit, however if you get a T43 board you'll need new RAM (PC2-4200) and the CPU you'll need is a 533MHz FSB Pentium M. The CPU in a T40 and T41 is a 400MHz Pentium M. A 400MHz Pentium M CPU will actually run in a T43 board, but not at the right speed/frequency. Your best bet is to stick with a T40 or a T41 board as has been previously mentioned. In fact if you do not get a /p board, you'll most likely be downgrading your GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), so keep that in mind as well.

14 or 15" models use the same mobo, you can use any R51 motherboard. There were two Intel GPU models, one had 10/100 Ethernet and no FireWire, the other had 10/100/1000 Ethernet and FireWire. With the latter, you'll have to decide what to do about the FireWire - options include 1) disconnect the cable and not use it, or 2) fashion a port in the side of your case with a Dremel and enjoy it.underclocker

There are seven adapter models that will work (are compatible with the T4x BIOS) for T4x machines (from IBM), they all work pretty well, but some people have preferences; I believe each adpater has more than one part number (some have several part numbers). underclocker]

***********************Fingerprint Reader**********************
It won't work on any T40 or T41 machines.
It will only work on T42 machines that supported the feature (needs the extra chip on the mobo - biometric coprocessor).
All Intel GPU T43 mobo's support it.
Some ATI GPU T43 mobo's support it (not sure about all).
In addition to needing the palmrest (there were at least 3 part numbers for the palmrest but all seem to be interchangeable), machines that came with the feature have slightly different Ultrabay drive cages. As noted above, they have a cut-out that permits the actual fingerprint scanner to rest within, thereby permitting the palmrest to remain flat when installed.
The fingerprint scanner is cabled to the touchpad and uses the same cable/connector that connects the touchpad to the motherboard. There is no extra or new connector needed on the mobo. You can physically connect the fingerprint scanner palmrest to any T4x machine.
Every Intel GPU T43 that I've opened up has the proper Ultrabay drive cage, whether or not it was originally equipped with the fingerprint reader. This makes for a quick and clean upgrade.
However, the special Ultrabay drive cage really isn't needed. In fact, the part with the cut-out is actually the hard drive cage (which comes with the Ultrabay drive cage). You can just use snips to cut out the small 1" x 1" section just below the fingerprint reader and you'll be fine. It is literally, just a cut-out.
So unless you do not have a motherboard that supports the feature, IT DEFINITELY WILL NOT WORK! (But you can install it and pretend! After all, do those huge wings on Honda's make them go faster?!) underclocker

*************************Power Supply**************************
A 4.5amp PS is needed for the T4x, charging the battery, and powering 3 USB ports at ½ A each (2 on the T4x and one on the port replicator.) I ran across a note on the IBM web site some time ago that indicated operating a T40 series on a 56W supply may result in unstable operation when using all of the USB ports.(16v ~ 4.5A, 72W 5.5mm O.D., 2.5mm I.D.)
