Vista's introduction of weird noises to my T60
Vista's introduction of weird noises to my T60
XP doesn't do either of these things:
When I unplug the AC adapter, my battery (I'm assuming) begins to make a constant, but varying in pitch, high pitch sound.
When I scroll, either with a mouse or the UltraNav, I hear a weird noise that sounds like it's coming from the hard drive. It's very strange, always the same noise, kind of like someone is running their finger down something really fast.
I realize it's a beta. Does anyone else have these problems?

Some people have it even in Windows XP on their Thinkpads; not really a problem, but more of a little issue, most likely with certain pwer management features of the OS, that cause it. It usually does happen on battery as Windows XP as well.

I met someone who looks a lot like you.
She does the things you do.
But she is an IBM.

Can I simply swap out my T5500 CPU in my 1953CTO T60 with a T5600? Or my T2400 core duo in my 2623D6U T60?
