Re: System Update 5 for Windows 8
Win 8 have not been officially released yet so of course you would not expect any official updates.
Re: System Update 5 for Windows 8
It's now been pulled due to issues.

Re: System Update 5 for Windows 8
It is available again, but it only installed 4 of about 20 pieces of software and drivers I needed for Win 8 Pro.
First Thinkpad 755CX in 1995. First IBM: PC 1982 8088 w 64K RAM, dual floppy. Currently in use:
X230T with Win8Pro x64, i7, 500gb ssd; W700 WUXGA RAID 1 Blu-Ray W7Pro x64, occasionally a T61p with Win7Pro x64

It won't install at all on my X1. Gives me Windows Installer errors. There were a few other pieces of Lenovo software that gave me similar errors. Hopefully it's updated soon.

Re: System Update 5 for Windows 8
Since the T400 is not a Lenovo supported platform for Win 8, it not going to offer you Win 8 related updateslukee wrote:Getting 'No packages found' message on my 6474R2U (T400) with Windows 8 Pro x64.

Re: System Update 5 for Windows 8
I finally got it to install by running it as local admin instead of my normal account (which should have worked as it was in local administrator's group too).
