X31 Audio card

#1 Post by interuser » Mon Apr 19, 2010 6:47 am

Hi
I wanna change my audio card for a better audio card. I have the competances to open and install.
First my question is : is it possible to change the audio card of the thinkpad X31 ?
If yes, where can I find it, at what price ?
Somebody has links ?


Thanks.

It is not possible. It is a chipset built into (as is soldered on to) the systemboard. You can use a PCMCIA audio card though.

Ah OK.
My PCMCIA port is already used, but is it working too on a compactflash port ?

Don't know of any sound cards that would work in the CF slot. How about USB?
Collection = T500 - R400 - X300 - X200 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - T61 (14.1" SXGA+) - T60 (15" SXGA+) - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P - 600E

I've just searched on Google about USB. It's very good.

Thank you for all.

Ok
Looking for better sound
Or looking for more features?
Back when there was something called vinyl, I spun a few tunes (mid 1980's)
