Top 20 Lenovo Thinkpad T60 Notebook Questions & Answers

It really depends on what kind of cold you're talking about. External temperature cool enough to produce condensation in the system can really mess your system up. Even to the point of destroying it. It's always good to keep your system above freezing and even above the dewpoint of where ever you're located. If you're talking about cold being just starting the computer from any temperature from an "off" power mode to "on" then you could have a video issue. You can check your Event Viewer when it finally powers up to get more info on what caused the problem.

Hi I Use Thunderbird from Mozilla download and set it up and as long as it is running on the computer it will get your emails I have mine set to check every 5 mins for new ones regards Sky

Interesting.

I have only encountered this issue since using Audlogics software to remove duplicate files on my machine.

Nothing against Audlogics, I have used it before to remove duplicate images or mp3s without any problems.

This time I (maybe foolishly) scanned the entire machine and removed every duplicate file with every extension (whilst keeping an original)

Since then my machine crashes, especially when using Chrome, and gives this error upon restart. It will eventually restart.

It works fine in safe mode and does not crash at all.

I am about to go back in and try it in normal mode and run various software to see which one causes the crashes.

I'm confident that the hard drive is still fine though.

Hi Best bet is to get a new /used keyboard and change it. hope you get it sorted

If the charger does not help it to turn on, try turning on the PC without the battery, OVERALL, YOU JUST NEED A NEW BATTERY... good luck! P.S. "Never let them charging un-attended and or over night.."

Sometimes a non genuine/un-activated copy of Windows can have the same problem. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause this. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Leo

When the pc boots up look in the lower leeft and right corners to see which key will allow you to got to boot device order and then after you find it out press it on boot several times until it shows them all then use arrows and enter to select your device. Keep in mind Ubuntu relies on ext2 filesystem instead of NTFS file system. Windows xp may not work so use a 7 or 8 disk. You will most likely have to format your HDD to NTFS.

Did you reboot the machine? Did you reboot the wireless device? Try this procedure: http://compnetworking.about.com/cs/windowsnetworkin1/ht/renewipaddrwxp.htm

Welcome to Fixya

The backlight must have turned Off. Look at the F keys ( F1, F2 etc) that has picture of the LCD. Press Fn + the key that has the LCD picture to turn on the backlight. If nothing happens, try to use external monitor. If you see the display using the external monitor then the problem is the LCD already.

Welcome to Fixya

The wireless switch is located either on the side of the laptop or infront. You will see an embossed image of a wireless network which means that the switch is at the ON position. You can alse enable and disable the adapter by pressing the F key (F1, F2 etc) that has a picture of a tower that has a wireless signal together with Fn key. On my laptop its Fn + F8.

There are 2 swiches for Wi Fi, Hardware and software. Hardware switch is located at the left side front panel of the Laptop. Software switch can be switched on by pressing the Fn + F5 key which brings up a black window where you can enable the Wifi.

The following CAN be done with the system running...:

Almost all drives have a small access hole on the front cover.

Take a small paperclip, straighten it and insert it into the hole carefully and straight, pressing in carefully and firmly.

The drive should release and pop open slightly. open the drive the rest of the way by hand and see if the disk is stuck (if any inside).

Try closing the drive and operating it again by button. If it fails to open, the drive will need to be replaced. Check with the system manufacturer for a replacement drive and instruction for replacement or take it to an authorized repair center.

You get this message if your Laptop (CMOS/configuration) Date is really outdated and wrong: check and change your Laptop Configuration setting for Date and Time. Also check your Windows Date/Time.
If the date/time you enter is not maintained properly, especially after you switch off the laptop, then you have a bad backup CMOS battery that needs to be replaced.

Hope it helps.

Try going into the BIOS of the laptop, usually by hitting the ThinkVantage button on startup, and checking the date and time settings to match those of your cellphones. Usually this happens when the date on the BIOS doesn't match the actual date.

you need to install then restart the laptop after each install. If you have no wireless when it restarts you need to fully uninstall the drivers you just used. I know its a pain doing this, but its the only way you will be able to correctly install the drivers

to correctly identify the one you need to download click here Download Now (HTTP) and install this program.



your network controller with no drivers installed will be shown in red, if you have any of the other drivers still installed it may show up as different make , you need to make sure all drivers that you installed are removed ,then run the program.

You have to take it apart and clean it. Remove all the screws from the bottom of the laptop. Be careful with the hinges of the screen. Remember to have silica paste to change the old one between the CPU and the cooler. And be careful on removing the old pasta from the CPU. You can damage the CPU is you manage it wrong.
Since is not a LED panel it is much safer to take it to a specialized workshop for the cleaning. It shouldn't cost too much.
