Thinkpads Forum

I know IBM removed a bunch of maintenance manuals last year, and I don't seem to be able to find one for the 701 series. Nor can I locate a user guide (if there ever was one).

I've just picked up a 701C (2630-7TU) and I need some directions and additional info about the system.

Are these manuals sitting around on an FTP server somewhere? Or does someone have a copy of one they could email to me?

Thanks,

Phil.

Thanks.

Now at least I know what it is I'm looking for!:

tpvol2.pdf 3716188 03-30-98 HMM Volume 2 for the ThinkPad 340, 355, 360, 370, 700, 720, 701, 750 and 755 systems

But I can't find this on the IBM FTP site for some reason. Maybe I'm just not with it today. The folder where most people think it should be looks to be empty now:
ftp://ftp.pc.ibm.com/pub/pccbbs/

Am I missing it somewhere?

Try the link in the sticky at the top of this forum. Look in the "mobiles" directory.

Also, you may want to download the "00index.txt" file which describes what the each of the files in the directory are.

Ahhh, yes, thanks, that gets it.

Next time I'll check the stickies in the Forum first!! (oops!)

Phil.
