X200 and keyboard replacement options

#1 Post by adrlopz » Thu Feb 20, 2014 1:51 pm

Hi!.My x200´s keyboard does have some bad keys (you do press the key,but you dont receive nothing).

Can i use a T400 or T500 keyboard instead?. Those are pretty popular with spanish layout,what i need.

Thanks!.

Afraid you'll have to stick with an x200 or x201 keyboard.

I believe that is incorrect. Keyboards from the T400 and X200 should be interchangeable.

Actually no, the T400 keyboard is interchangeable with a T60 & T61 and is held in place with one screw.
A x200/201 keyboard requires four screws - none of which match the T60/61/400 screw position.
