Bump, still available

Hi, selling my ol' trusty X230. Details below... Condition: VG - keyboard and touchpad like new, no damage to the screen, tight hinges, small scratches on the top cover, dent in the memory compartment cover. Battery capacity: 82% Machine Type: 2325SYU Specs: CPU: i5-3320M RAM: 2x8GB DDR3L-1600 HDD: ...

Hi! Sending to Thailand is very costly and complicated. Furthermore I cannot guarantee that the EU Care Pack this laptop has, extends to Thailand. With the shipping costs and import fees, it'd significantly ramp up the total cost. I think you're better off with local offers, no offense. :thumbs-UP: ...

Hi, a bit unusual to sell an HP here :D . I got this one instead of T14 back in the day, because it doesn't have soldered in RAM. Which I expanded into 64GB. It has all the bells and whistles of T14, like lowered charging threshold for battery (80%), while offering PCIe tunneling on its USB4 ports, ...

Did Whitebeard take the X230?

Hi,
I still have all the laptops listed above, no sale has happened yet.

Understood, prices added.

Which version are you looking for and for which laptop?

I'm looking for first version to support Ivy Bridge for Windows 7 x64

Hi, I have various TPs, and for a long time used 3.28 (I think) Lenovo Power Manager, the first version to support x230. But today, PM is a part of vantage, which is quite bloated for my use. Is there a stash of older versions of PM I could download from somewhere? I have 1.0 archived from R60 rescu...

It's possible that the display might be defective.

Hi, I have finally got my hands on x230, after many delays due to the ravaging virus. But it's 6cell battery is almost flat, 70% wear level. Based on various blogs and sites, re-celling a lenovo battery is tricky - smbus programmer is needed and even then it's a lottery of having a right IC that is ...

04W3920 is not IPS. FRUs for IPS are 04W3919, 04W3462 and 93P5675. Thanks, that's useful. I checked another S/N and there was no screen in the parts list at all. What does it mean? Edit: never mind, it means the screen is not recognized by parts lookup (BTW, this machine seem to have IPS under very...

OK, I got one S/N, but the parts lookup aren't very specific:


Where can I check it?

I have 10 laptops and 2 desktops, should I feel guilty? After a dreadful experience with x220 back in 2013 (which was sold immediately), I abadoned new Thinkpads in favor of HP Elitebook line. Now, I'm returning back with x230. As for usage, all computers get used mostly for remote rendering. Wake o...

If you need just gfx and lan, then get those from Intel: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/81499/Intel-HD-Graphics-4000 Not sure if x230 comes with 82579, if yes, try this: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/47549/Intel-82579-Gigabit-Ethernet-Controller Download, unpack and install thro...

All I can find in my location are x230 with i5-3320M, is there a chance that any of these models come with IPS from factory, or only those with i7? Plenty of i5-3320M units came with IPS screens from factory. You need the model number to know. OK, thanks. So the parts lookup will show IPS? From the...

Sorry to revive this old thread, but I find myself in the same shoes as OP.

Not much you can do at this point, I'm afraid. It could be anything, like a bad solder joint on the RAM slot, failed electronic component (like a capacitor) somewhere between the RAM slot and the northbridge, or even a bad solder joint on the northbridge chip itself. :? So doing reflow should fix i...

Done full 60, still the same thing.

Why should the end of support for W7 discourage anyone from using it on classic Thinkpads even after 2020? Some people subscribe to the notion that one day after Microsoft officially announces that it will no longer release patches for a system, it will automatically be attacked by 100 different ty...

Hi, one slot on my X60T appears not functioning correctly - with any RAM in it, laptop produces 4 short beeps (motherboard failure). The other slot works perfectly fine. I checked the slot for any cold solder joints and couldn't find any, I also cleaned the slot with pure ethanol - still the same th...

So the fan for X60 is compatible with X60T's fan assembly?
If that's the case I found one locally.

BTW, congratulations on your promotion.

Hi,
fan unit in my recently purchased X60T died. Is there a suitable replacement just for the fan and not the entire assembly?
Thanks

Sorry for delayed response on the matter. After one more clean reinstall it's now clear there is a compatibility issue with the bare system. Seems that XP x64 is not the way to go for T500. Compatibility-wise though I haven't had any sort of issue on HP 2530p, 2560p, 2570p, 8470p and desktop based o...

I actually got my retro-gaming T42 for twice the price of R60e :lol: But it's worth it in my case as I'm running 98SE (on 1280MB RAM) and R60+ doesn't work with it. PM me if any of you need old, still uncluttered and light version of Power Manager for WinXP (taken from R60's OEM set, mid-2006). Last...

Hi there again! I got my hands on R51 in great condition and seeing that it's not that different from 15" T42 in terms of port placement (only IEEE1394 is missing on T42), is it possible to fit T42 Mobo inside R51 chassis? The T42 is pretty beaten up, but has great graphics (Radeon 9600) and 15" 140...

I'm experiencing annoying issue on freshly installed WXP x64 with loaded drivers - the CPU usage after wake up is very high. Task manager didn't reveal specific process causing this, the load is divided among multiple processes with taskmgr.exe taking nearly 30% of it. XP is installed on top of iast...

Hi,
is it possible to transplant 15" 1400x1050 FlexView screen from broken T42 into Lenovo R60 which has classic XGA 1024x768? Do I need different display cable?
I have found several threads on this, but none of them had conclusive answer.

Thanks in advance!
