You can run a Penryn chip in it but with a factory bios it will display a thermal sensing error because the board cannot read the Penryn chips more advanced digital temp sensor. The middleton bios doesn't add this ability, it only suppresses the warning. Performance wise they are equal, but it's no...

A matching T61 14.1" 4:3 native PENRYN motherboard with Intel Gfx would have P/N 42W7872 This item being offered is identified specifically as 42W7648 , with Penryn compatibility via the Middleton BIOS, with Intel Gfx etc. Any reasons to want a bone stock native Penryn that overcomes a 4 times the ...

Just so it's clear, this is NOT a Penryn board... though as the seller mentions, Middleton's BIOS will enable the use of a Penryn chip in this board. There is some debate on whether this is a good idea... I can tell you that I am running a T9300 Penryn chip in a 42W7648 without issue... still I thi...

Hi this can either be considered a barebones system, 8895-A98 or a very rare motherboard with accessories. 42W7648 Intel Graphics 14.1 4:3 SXGA form factor. Price is essentially 79+20 Shipping via Paypal. Its $99 delivered via USPS. It's the 42W7648 motherboard, which does NOT have the problem Nvidi...

I looked at the Yoga Pro 2 at a Best Buy after playing with a friends Thinkpad Yoga. The Thinkpad is much better IMO. Its build is better, it really feels solid. I was excited about seeing the Yoga Pro 2 screen. But frankly I did not like it, and I am a IPS screen junkie. For whatever reason I thoug...

Nice deal....was looking at ebay and they want 10 dollars just for the little rubber feets. I ended up not buying the machine that would need them. Generic adapter could be OEM manufacturer too. You think the screen is dead, 1/3 dead that is, or is it the signal from the messed up motherboard. thanks.

thanks for the replies, I just started looking, I suspect what I found on ebay, was a rare item, that I just happened by, and missed out on, it was a private party item, not a reseller. I will keep your stock in mind, I am certainly only looking for a 4:3, and low heat. I am under the impression tha...

WTB: T61 SXGA 1400 x 1050 14.1inch with Intel Graphics. Hi, I just missed out on a nice auction on eBay for such an animal, and I just don't know how often these appear. I am going to be kicking myself, because I was going to wait to bid on it, and then forgot to, and remembered 10 minutes after th...

changed to looking for a 14 inch, everything else the same

Hi, I am looking to built a nice TV room couch laptop for myself, Hence the big screen. T60 14 inch 1024 x 768, Core 2 duo preferred, but not ruling out Core Duo Obviously the nicest possible at the lowest price...but here are what I am looking for. 1. Nice bright clean screen. 2. Memory I am flexib...

I have this same exact effect, and I can essentially completely work around it, with Thinkpad Fan Control utility. I can stay under 55C for a good chunk of time, without the fan running at all. Have the fan set to the lowest setting, "1" and lowest rate about 2300 rpm. You will barely be able to hea...

FYI, the R50 LCD panel does not have an EDID chip that a R60 must have to work. I thought when I looked up the in Everest that it was the same panel part number as a T60. So are you saying that R50/51 Flexview will only working in same, or can this Flexview be used in other models, like a T42/T43 o...

I guess you haven't seen HP's DreamColor offerings on EliteBooks...which are targeting the opposite end of the market - desktop replacement...I'd love to be able to justify owning one... You are right, now I have http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIBg_4DGfNY, I think the Ipad is better because of the ...

Have a complete lid assembly from a R50 SXGA+ Flexview. So it has antenna and hings and everything else. The screen is in good shape, I have not used it since the motherboard died. Its not perfection. 40 dollars shipped. I am not an expert on the inverter and whether you need to flash something to g...

Agree that the Ipad is still not a complete solution, however a friend has a pretty nice case/keyboard thing, which makes it pretty close for a lot of people. After reading the article why not to buy the Ipad 3, the author says he owns one, and is keeping it to replace his Ipad 1. Claiming he could ...

assuming the R50 panel will work in the T60/T61 FrankNpad...? I am really not sure on this specifically, as well as the inverter, and the cable and connector compatibility. I am sure this is already been a path others have gone down, I just have not done the searches. I thought when I looked at the...

I have a 512MB sodimm PC2700 from a R51, I will give you the exact IBM part number if you are interested.

I have a T51 15" 1400 x 1050 IPS complete lid, with hinges, I would say the screen is a B, its not perfect, has a couple of very light pencil erasure size bruises, very faint. Some artifacts in the bottom corners, but still a wonderful IPS. I don't know about the compatibility and the inverter stuff...

Yes the new Ipad 3 is gong to be quite tempting, they already makes some very nice little keyboard cases which essentially make it a laptop.....just missing the trackpoint. The new display is going to be as significant of a jump of the 3gs to the Iphone 4. The high res is just wonderful for text. Ha...

I've owned several 6363 tablets and *all* of them had AFFS panels... I have had two pen only XGA screens both of which were Samsung PVA panels, definitely not TN, but also not AFFS. Its one of the reasons why people consider the multitouch screen brighter than the pen only (both XGA types)......its...

I sent in a XGA touchpanel X61 with a bezel issue they sent it back without fixing the bezel but broke the nav dial I sent it back, and asked them to confirm all was OK with the screen. They tried to reach me, to tell me I needed a new motherboard and inverter that I would have to pay out of pocket....

lucky forum member who got it, I was about to buy it.....this listing was some sort of time destortion bubble or some other twilight zone characterization, a highly desirable Thinkpad, at a great price, but not selling, I myself looked at it enough times but did not pull the trigger....

nice deal....if I was looking for another....bump

Have you tried using TP fan control and leaving it set to setting 1 in the manual option. YMMV and IMO The noise of the fan seems to be from acceleration and deceleration, where it gets a warbal wobble as the motor torques and untorques the fan. The bios setting seems to have lots of hunting. The LP...

You will probably want an IPS monitor if you want to match the Flexview. You may be perfectly happy with a PVA though. The best you can do in UXGA is the NEC 2090uxi. Its also called a Lacie 320. (though Lacie has a problem with not updating model numbers, you have to look at the base to know the co...

I have 60 GB PATA IBM p/n 39m0165 5400 rpm Made by Fujitsu for IBM. MHV2060AS $35 dollars shipped, via Paypal, which is a good price I believe even before Thailand sunk into the sea. Its a pull from a R51 which had the GPU on the MB fail. It was in fine condition until the GPU. A week DOA/Functional...

Sometimes I really wonder, what makes people to make so much fuss about the aspect ratio of their laptop's panel.[/quote] It's actually more a matter of missing vertical pixels versus pointlessly inflated horizontal pixels than just the ratio in itself. What people have grown used to refer to as "w...
