SOURCE: IBM Thinkpad T43 freezes until pressure is applied to the top
I don't have a solution to this problem but I know what the issue is because I have bought several of these unit and they all have one of two problems. 1 If they have the ATI X300 Radeon video then it is a GPU issue that has plague the T4x series and I believe it migrated into the T60 as well this is a very disturbing issue in the sense that IBM/Lenovo has known about this problem and won't take ownership and have a recall. The cost of these machine's are unbelievable when new and to have a problem like this it is unacceptable. The other issue is the Southbridge and it has the same problem as the GPU, which is a solder problem. The solder joints between the board and the BGA become cracked and cause intermittent issues such as freezing, HDD not to spin ETC practically everything runs through the Southbridge (PCI controller) even video control signals and USB. The cause is flexing of the motherboard over time Solution 1. Find a place that does this type of rework there are some companies offering this service but do your homework before hand I am in the process of getting one of these boards done but the cost is not cheap. I think it is cheaper then getting a new motherboard Solution 2 Get a new motherboard $400.00 and after three or four years have the same problem. I hope this helps. Dee
At least you have a backup in there, somewhere!
Laptops are very stable normally but don't boot up if there is a device
in the USB slot or a CD/DVD in the drive or sometimes when the battery gets to s critical level.
If it still refuses to
POST, remove the AC Adapter, remove the battery and remove the hard
drive.
Power the unit up without the hard drive and it should
complete POST and complain that there is no hard drive. If that
doesn't work remove AC adapter, ensure battery is disconnected and
remove hard drive and RAM. Try again. If it still doesn't work, you
have a mother board fault and it needs a service centre.
www.Toshiba.com will help you out.
If it does work at one of the
options, when you have closed the laptop down, replace the RAM first
and test, then the Hard Drive.
Hope this fixes your problem.
