Newbie Here !!!

#1 Post by uncleel » Sun Feb 06, 2005 12:28 pm

In all my years, this is my 1st laptop. I purchased it for my 20 yr old daughter for college.

T22 2647 8GU


The displayed disappeared, however it worked on a seprate monitor.
On advise I did the following.


* Downloaded lastest vid drivers.

*Take apart & check 'ribbon cable"



After a few screws I decided that I didn't have enough experience despite my pretty good desk knowledge.

Low & behold, when the battery was reinstalled, the display has come back!

Why?

p.s. I would be interrested in any info concerning:

1.) owners manual

2.) More ram

Thanks,
unc

I think there's a link to the IBM Hardware Maintenance Manual (HMM) page on the thinkpads.com website.

As for RAM, if the second slot is free, you can upgrade it with a so-DIMM.
