Thinkpad maintenance diskette

#1 Post by JBUK » Wed Aug 23, 2006 4:01 am

I have just replaced a failing system board in my T20.
The new one has no UUID or sytem serial no. set.
Although it does work normally I would like to update it using the 'Thinkpad hardware maintenance diskette version 1.62' mentioned in the HMM.

Does anyone know where I can download this from. A search of the IBM/Lenovo sites gave me no hits.

Reapply/upgrade the BIOs file. It will let you enter that information during the upgrade.
T43 1.8 / 2GB / 60GB 7K100 X31 1.4GHz / 2GB / 60GB 7K100
T20 700MHz / 512MB / 40GB 570E 500MHz / 320 MB
570 366MHz / 64MB (x2) 755CV 100MHz 486 / 8MB / 540MB

Thanks for the suggestion. I have already done the bios upgrade. It was from 1.03 to 1.22. There was no option to enter the missing data.

I think I really need the diskette.
