Thinkpads Forum

Hi all,
Im new to these forums, and im hoping you guys can help me.
I have a T61 that was working perfectly until a bios flash was performed(and failed) and now the notebook will not POST, the lights come on but no HDD activity or anything on the screen. I have tried many key combos to enter the recover mode of the bios(FN+ESC, FN+B etc.).
Does anyone know, in the first place IF there is a recovery/bootblock mode and if so, what the keys are.

Hello Ian*;
Sorry you having troubles with a T61. most of Tseries are near bulletproof and they run LINUX like a charm!!
I have repairs few 100 T6x series and donted most of them to lcoal schools etc. ANY BIOS problems and issues (like you described - are flashing errors ) that CANNOT BE FIXED WITHOUT SPECIAL TOOLS AND EQUIPEMENT. All the BIOS repalced were done by the forum sponsor here AQSTECH
I would email him direct from the page or call. And make arrangement for your laptop to be sent to him. He will take care of rest....His work is fast , accurate and very effieient and well priced !


Hope this helps
Cheers

I was afraid of that answer, thanks for the info anyway though. Ill took into AQSTECH.
