Driver updates?

#1 Post by Lauren23 » Fri Sep 12, 2014 2:07 am

Hi,

On Lenovo's website, I was used to enter the type number of previous ThinkPad models to get the details specifications.

I'm very upset by the way that Lenovo changed their support site this year as I can't anymore find a way to enter the laptop type (for instance 2007-GAG), but only the model (for instance T60).

When updating drivers, I don't necessarily know which to install as there are several variants of the same computer (for instance the T60).

Any way to still get the detailed specifications for a given type ? :(

At least for the time being, you can still use "Quick Path" here: http://support1.lenovo.com
Collection = T430 - T500 - R400 - X300 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - R61 (15" SXGA+) - T60 - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P

It would appear that anything older than the T60 series is being killed off in terms of being able to find drivers, software and utilities from Lenovo.
New:
