WTB: T61p motherboard

#1 Post by robca » Fri Mar 25, 2016 4:23 pm

I recently bought a lightly used 15.4" T61p (1920x1200 lcd). The unit is in perfect conditions, but the Nvidia FX570M GPU is starting to act up. I'm looking for any compatible motherboard with a known good GPU (no need for high perf graphics in my case)

I will try to reflow the motherboard if I can find a replacement board, but don't want to risk killing it (it works reliably using the VGA driver currently). I'm reasonably competent with SMD soldering, but a laptop motherboard is always a risk

Suggestions for reliable sellers on eBay/Amazon/elsewhere are also happily accepted (I did send PM to some of the most active sellers here, too). I'm new to the Thinkpad world and still trying to wrap my head around all the variations (I did learn that all T61 mobo seem to be compatible with my screen, which is good)

thanks in advance, Rob
