I prefer the X61 because of the taller screen aspect because I write documents for a living. But all my X61 (I think I have 4 or 5) eventually died due to FAN ERROR. I believe I also have a few docks as well. So, these are dead computers. I would like to distribute them to any of you who will pay th...

Yes. Works fine.

I have two new to me X230 Tablets on which I want to delete the BIOS whitelist.

Is there a newer or different way to do this or should I just follow the instructions at the top of this thread?

TPFanatic You rule buddy!!!

Can I just install the P71 driver over the Windows 10 X230 Tablet Driver or should I uninstall the Windows 10 X230 Tablet Driver first?

Thanks axur! I am glad you are still around to help.

I picked up a second X230T and want to upgrade its memory to 16GB My existing X230T has Crucial 16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz But Crucial's website says that they no longer have compatible memory for the X230T. I found this on Amazon will it work or should I buy something else? Crucial RAM 16GB ...

TPFanatic thank you for your help again. I bought this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/394446104307?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D254122%26meid%3Db16f0d8818a6499a984f6ceda7f08884%26pid%3D101196%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D255970380148%26itm%3D394446104307...

My wife just bought a Lenovo T580 i7-8550U ? Prior to purchase I verified that the T580 would accept a 2.5 inch SSD. I assumed that meant that it would accept the Crucial 2.5 inch 2T in her T61p. But no, although the 2.5 inch bay will hold her existing drive, the physical plug for the electronic con...

T580 is within reach. Thank you again Axur!

My wife uses her T61p, generally without problems. However, our favorite "TV" news site, americasvoice.news has stopped streaming on her T61p. Rumble, etc. stream no problem. Americasvoice.news streams no problem on my X230T. Could it be the video/graphics chip version in the T61p is finally conside...

That is interesting. I have upgraded/hacked Windows 11 to work on my X230T laptops. And it is working well and I like it. I have not done that on my wife's T61p which is running Windows 10 without issue, but when I update it, I don't get an offer from Microsoft to upgrade it to Windows 11, but I wil...

Update: Battery seems to be working fine. However, I have not tested it and really don't know how to test it.

Thank you for your warning post!
Do you have a recommendation for a genuine oem battery?

Rufus seems to get easier to use with every iteration. I also like Windows 11 once I disable all the connections to Microsoft account and only use a local account. BTW it takes hours for Rufus to download Windows iso file on my slow internet connection at our rural home, and I have had it time out a...

Windows 11 22H2 is out.

And Rufus 3.20 is also out:

https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/releases

I am currently using it to download an ISO of Win_11_2H22_English_x61v1.iso to a USB to install on my X230T.

It seems to get easier to use with every version.

Update: Above battery has been working fine.

I bought this on ebay:

New Genuine 67+ 45N1078 45N1079 Battery for Lenovo ThinkPad X220t X230t tablet $59.99

https://www.ebay.com/itm/325342467333

Has not arrived yet.

Found these oem Lenovo batteries on ebay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/325342467333

Will do and will report back.
Thank you!

@tpfanatic et al. I have two X230T I have set the time in Windows 11 operating system on the X230T which starts with the 0271 real time clock error. It does not fix the problem. Rather, I have to [ESC] and then usually it starts booting Windows 11. But it is irritating to start it this way everytime...

Ok now I am a little grumpy with myself. When I bought the X230T I immediately upgraded it to Windows 11. But the volume up and down function does not exist when the screen is face up and folded down covering the keyboard. Wondering how I could use it in "tablet mode" with Windows 11 I came across t...

I successfully reflashed a X230T with ivyprep and then 1vyrain. Although the laptop works fine, on start up, it presents a 0271 Clock error. After restarting a couple of times by pressing ESC, the laptop starts normally. But it is annoying. I have gone into BIOS, including the Advanced tab and there...

FYI, I have followed the instructions in the below link to widen the scroll bars on three separate laptops now. Two X230T and one P53. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/windows-8-scroll-bar-hard-see-change-windows-8-scrollbar-width IMHO, especially when using a touch screen like on the X230T, it is hel...

I have two X230T (tablet). One came without a battery. One came with an oem Lenovo battery built in 2013, FRU P/N 45N1079 / ASM P/N 45N1078 and I am surprised that it provides power as long as it does for being 9 years old. Apparently, you cannot buy Lenovo batteries on their website. You must telep...

I have really become enamored by the X230T. I have the backlit keyboard version. (True, the screen is not as tall as the X61 and the keyboard feel on the X61 is somewhat better, but the X230T seems to be a worthy replacement.) So, I bought an X230T on ebay without a battery, charger or hard drive fo...

Thank you for the info. I changed from 7260 to AX210 as well, and after physically removing the BT daughter card and scanning for hardware changes in device manager, everything is working great now.

Upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 Home using Rufus 3.19. Checked all THREE options in Rufus 3.19, incl bypass Ram reqmt, lbypass TPM, bypass Security Questions (although there is not a separate check box for "no Secure Boot" or bypass "unsupported CPU," and there is no "Extended Windows 11 Inst...

Rufus 3.19 is out. Should I use it? It doesn't mention secure boot or CPU type.

Thank you dr_st !!!
I watched a bunch of older, now irrelevant videos on how to install it and some more current rufus based installations and will try the rufus method.
