ThinkPad T61 With Windows 2000
ThinkPad T61 With Windows 2000
Hi,
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T61 with Windows 2000, every single driver except the WLAN and Audio is working.
The WLAN Driver doesn't work and the connection icon says "Local Area Connection, Network Cable Unplugged."
The audio is showing a error saying it cant find the built in speakers.
Could someone help?

If you're sure the LAN cable is plugged in and is working (i.e. have a signal) then download and install the drivers.

Re: ThinkPad T61 With Windows 2000
Win2K drivers for the T61 I'm 99% sure don't exist and it's not even a good machine for it.
Thinkpad4by3's Law of the Universe.
The efficiency of two screens equally sized with equal numbers if pixels are equal. The time spent by a 4:3 user complaining about 16:9 is proportional to the inefficiency working with a 16:9 display, therefore the amount of useful work extracted is equal.

@Thinkpad4by3:
maybe it's time to check the contents of our Drivers link at the top of this page?

Re: ThinkPad T61 With Windows 2000
Is this Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4?
Did your T61 come with any of the Intel wireless adapters that was originally offered? If I can remember it right, none of them had any proper drivers to run under Windows 2000 without resorting to WEP encryption. The official Intel driver alone would resort to WEP encryption, but I have no idea if the PROset wireless utility does that too.
Regarding your speakers that seems to be undetectable, installing this hotfix (Q888111) may fix this issue. Remember to reinstall the audio driver, once you are done installing that hotfix.
