Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I couldn't find any topics about these cool little machines, so I thought I would start one. For first, they are far the coolest portables ever, I think. For second, they are very rare so you should really appreciate these tiny wonders I have one too, but unfortunately it's an s30, so it doesn't have that cool, shiny, piano black cover. Apart from that it's a great machine, I can use it for browsing or text editing, or even watching a film
But I have a question: What kind of external display connector does it have? I couldn't find out it. Even the HMM says "External monitor (mini-plug)" Before you reply, no, it's not HDMI, nor mini VGA.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Welcome to the forum!
If you browse deeper through the forum - especially this "classic" sub-forum - you'll see that there are actually quite a few posts regarding S30 and S31 models. A lot of folks around here owned them at one point - myself included - and some still do, including forum's owner...

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I still don't know what type of connector is it. I would really appreciate if someone could help me. I've seen a picture of a converter or cable plugged into this laptop, it had a D-sub on the other end and wasn't so big, so I guess it should be just a simple cable without any active components.

I also have the s30 and looking for the recovery cd for it. do you by any chance still keep them?
Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Unfortunately I don't have that CD, nor any other accessories, just the laptop But why do you need it? You can just save your stuff to somewhere and install a new XP on it. Your computer will be much faster. And also I guess the recovery CD is Japanese, becasue the s30 was sold in AsiaPacific only.

You basically right,
But the thing is, I hardly use those laptops those days, so the joyful part (at list for me) is to see them working with their old OC and the third party software that came with the preinstalled configuration.
I had tried fresh install more then a few times, on my 240x but it was never like the original install. Those days Lenovo don’t really provide ALL the software that came in the preinstall.
So basically, I can get to what I want ONLY with the recovery cd's.
Hopefully, someone out there still have them….
Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I think you mean OS not OC Anyway, you could try to contact the Lenovo suppport, they may could help you.

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Well, to revive an old thread,
It's been a while and i STILL haven't manage to find anyone that have the recovery cd's for the Ibm ThinkPad s30 /31 (2639).
Does anyone here have by any chance the ThinkPad s30/s31 recovery cd?
Or even the hidden recovery partition, and willing to share it?
I will be more than happy to pay for it…
I've been looking for them it seems like no one bothered to keep them.
So many ThinkPad's lovers and no-love for me...(
Those ThinkPad's were hard to find, but trying to find the recovery cd's is really taking its toll...
Help, anyone?

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Hi,
Long time no post ! I'm currently selling off my Thinkpad collection and I'm preparing my mint complete in box S30. In this end I preciously ripped the new recovery CDs in order to make them available to everyone. Here they are: https://archive.org/details/SLCJP10.
I hope it helps!

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I have a box-complete piano black s30, but with no recovery partition, so I will try to make use of your gift of the recovery discs.
(If perchance, my seller made a mistake, and I do end up finding a Windows XP recovery partition, I will share it.)

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I am trying to revive my machine, how did you go about installing the OS? I have an S31 and I am not sure what PCMCIA CD drive works on that, and it doesn't boot from USB sadly.
I have a PCMCIA CD Drive from a Vaio but my S31 refuses to boot from it, I confirmed it working by testing it with my X61T.
I am probably going to install Win2000, unless I could find a clean XP disk/ISO.

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I don't know yet but I guess installing msdos with ramdisk and cdrom support will be a (the) way to go without any recovery partition

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
If I am not wrong, the S30 and the S31 has an Analog Devices SoundMAX AD1981A codec.
The AD1981A appears to be exactly the same as the AD1981B, specifications-wise. If this is actually the case, that means the AD1981A is capable of being identified as a Sound Blaster in most DOS games, just like the AD1981B.
Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Not quite ... while it's possible the S30 has a AD1981A, the AD1981A is simply a CODEC. It contains no interface to a PCI or ISA bus, which would have to be implemented on another chip. The majority of ThinkPads of that generation (like A20) have a CS4*** with built in PCI interface (some having two chips, one for soundblaster compatibility). If it is being interfaced over PCI, it would require DOS drivers to play sound in DOS ... which may not be available, since I can't seem to find a collection of S30 drivers anywhereScreamer wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2019 4:41 amIf I am not wrong, the S30 and the S31 has an Analog Devices SoundMAX AD1981A codec.

I'm more or less just curious if it would make a great vintage gaming laptop - the A2x series is GREAT but hardly portable - the S30 is from the same generation, but given the size, they may have dropped the DOS compatibility sound chip
Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
I see, but isn't the AC'97 codec connected to the AC'97 audio controller, which is then connected to the southbridge? On such a platform that has an 440MX, I am sure that the southbridge would be connected directly to the PCI bus. In this case, wouldn't the AC'97 codec be connected indirectly to the PCI bus?
DOS drivers? Have you thought of using Windows 98 Second Edition to run your DOS games instead? If I can recall, it has a built-in Sound Blaster emulation layer to emulate a real Sound Blaster. The only thing that I can't confirm, is the emulation layer's ability to run under a .VxD audio driver.
Nobody has archived the S30's drivers yet? Christ... I guess that I'll just have to list it for you.

Re: Thinkpad s30 and s31 - The asian miracles!
Years later, someone managed to contact me and let me know that I was being paged (seems some people have decided to ask about me and arise old ghost from the land of the dead).
This post is for that person, for Jonas, for his kind contributions to the community, and, for michelle13, for her sheer sense of curiosity and inquisition.
However, in the process of wanting to have an archive, I did recently image the entire 80GB drive of a (likely within the year to fail ) drive which was originally within a T61 machine (I Think).
(As an aside that T61, like a number of others I have owned, that particular one now has now a small Intel SSD [likely] in it and it should have found itself a home to someone in Japan who uses Mercari. It also has 8GB of DDR2 RAM. (A feat made well easier by the fact that this was all in 2018 and not in 2021 -- if you all still have 4GB DDR2 sticks I may seek a backup stick someday.))
As this HD is from a computer I had during my time living in Japan, so too, is the edition and language of Windows XP and the IBM Recovery Tools built into it.
However, if all you kind forum members do not mind, I'll make a point next time I'm in a place with better internet access to backup that entire ISO somewhere to my cloud, and then will share that.
[As for payment, etc. I have no need for it -- partially why I am as such inactive these days is because I am now a working professional, graduated from the world of academia and always finding something new at work to keep myself occupied with. Perhaps, if you wish to support me, I will provide you with some suggestion to support a reputable charitable organisation instead. Personally, my favorite event from my childhood onwards, is 'Trick or Treat for UNICEF' (and there are many others).]

In the end, I did not manage to make use of the recovery image CDs he provided -- the forum member who bought the s30 piano from me decided he had no use for it.

But back to the topic at hand. I have an 80GB file, but unfortunately am not living in Japan anymore, and my region of the state of California (USA) is not blessed with a quick 'fibre' connection or similar, as I used to have in Japan. Conversely, it is dangerous for me to file backup this 80GB ISO created in linux (using pv -- a utility similar to dd), though as I did an md5 checksum verification prior to wiping the disk, I am sure it is byte-faithful and can be restored to any disk assuming a large enough storage drive for the ISO [on/and] a linux live USB, and a hard disk in your SATA port.michelle13 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 12, 2017 12:55 pmWell, to revive an old thread,
It's been a while and i STILL haven't manage to find anyone that have the recovery cd's for the Ibm ThinkPad s30 /31 (2639).
Does anyone here have by any chance the ThinkPad s30/s31 recovery cd?
Or even the hidden recovery partition, and willing to share it?
I will be more than happy to pay for it…
I've been looking for them it seems like no one bothered to keep them.
So many ThinkPad's lovers and no-love for me...(
Those ThinkPad's were hard to find, but trying to find the recovery cd's is really taking its toll...
Help, anyone?
As this HD is from a computer I had during my time living in Japan, so too, is the edition and language of Windows XP and the IBM Recovery Tools built into it.
However, if all you kind forum members do not mind, I'll make a point next time I'm in a place with better internet access to backup that entire ISO somewhere to my cloud, and then will share that.
[As for payment, etc. I have no need for it -- partially why I am as such inactive these days is because I am now a working professional, graduated from the world of academia and always finding something new at work to keep myself occupied with. Perhaps, if you wish to support me, I will provide you with some suggestion to support a reputable charitable organisation instead. Personally, my favorite event from my childhood onwards, is 'Trick or Treat for UNICEF' (and there are many others).]
