I apologize on how rushed this video may feel. First time doing these kinds of videos. Hope you enjoyed it! This model did contain the Nvidia 8400M GS video card with 256mb of dedicated video ram. I ran the machine with windows 10 1511 as I have found this version of windows to run really well on older core 2 duo CPUs.

If you have any questions feel free to ask
I got the following thinkpad collection: E440,T430,W530 and Y50-70 gaming. I also got 2 x140e netbooks as well. I gotta do some worrk to get my W530 working better th I gotta repaste and clean the cooling and I gotta upgrade the mint linux from 19.3 to 22... my t430 I spilled coffee on it still works but power button is janky. wa cleaned before but not enough I think.
My T530 needs a new keyboard and battery. I have had it for about 5 1/2 years. I upgraded the RAM to 16GB and I replaced the old 500 GB mechanical HDD with a 128GB SSD boot drive and the Ultrabay is rocking a 1TB HDD for storage. I also added a little 16GB M.Sata drive. All in all it is a tank. Been dropped twice and still going strong. Did I mention I got it for free? Thank you for finally talking about the T530. All the videos I see always talk about T420 s and T430s.
I have a stack of ThinkPads. Daily I use T480s. Farthest I go back is T430 which has the best keyboard.
I just got a Thinkpad recently and having only just found out about 'em and seeing videos about 'em, I find these machines so fascinating My Thinkpad is an E550, and it looks remarkably similar to the W541 here (being big, having a numpad and everything), but I'm not sure what the differences are exactly Still, it's pretty cool to see people upgrade and mod these things, and show off their collections
I have a thinkpad a485 I bought off of ebay great condition for 229 total (Price, tax, and shipping) It has a ryzen 5 2500u and I upgraded the ram to 2x8 gb
I have been thinking about getting one of those for the last few months. I hope that computer serves you well!
My dad has a Thinkpad form 1996. It still turns on and works. It needs to be connected at all time but it works. I wonder if it’s the first one they ever made because it had a lot of manuals and paperwork introducing the ThinkPad and saying it was the first of its kind. Back when IBM was IBM 🤣
That's awesome! I would definitely try to keep that model around for as long as you can. Paperwork for older stuff is getting a little harder to come by. I wish IBM still made the ThinkPad line instead of being sold to Lenovo, I feel that Lenovo has made the newer line of devices a little unreliable. I'm basing that opinion off of my repair experience with the newer models.
Just upgraded a t540p (fhd, nvidia 730) from i5-4300 to i7-4810mq, 16gb ram, 1tb 2,5, new battery.. I sold not that long tine ago one t60 that had 1680*1650 screen, id reader that i upgraded to t7700.. I have a plan to move away from x201 that has an i7 first gen.. 8gb ram.. condition is "used". If soneone wants it added to a collection.
Very nice! I had almost the same spec in a T440p I had a while ago. That T60 you had was quite a gem.
Nice! Just bought a W540 on Marketplace last week... Loving it! That maxed out W541 is bound to make somebody real happy! Cheers! ;-]
Awesome! I'm glad to hear. If you are willing, I would recommend getting the W541 trackpad vs the W540's "clunk pad" trackpad. The difference is night and day. I did a similar mod to my T440p when I still had it.
@@fazedawaymachinesonline I suspect that need will become obvious to me as I experience it for myself. I've already noticed it was a bit odd... 👍😁 But it's not a major concern since I often use a wireless mouse.
Hi there, Nice collection. Wonder, You have a T60P with Intel Core 2 Duo T7600, Nice, but they You have also a T61 with a T7300, newer no del with slower CPU. That T61 can do better. Last, If I we're You I ˋll keep the T60P, correct, and the X230. This last one can have the X220 keyboard, the screen can be updated and have the best of the classic IBM plus a faster CPU, USB 3.0 and portability, it's only 3 lbs
Thank you! I have though about getting a T61p but usually the cost of them is way more than what I want to pay for one. I have definitely been contemplating selling my X230, maybe it'll stick around for a little longer.
wow
i7 4910MQ i have one in mine it's awsome
You look a bit like Emmanuel Ebassi
Hi recently I purchased the T530 version without fingerprint sensor,the only difference between the two versions is only the fingerprint sensor?
Man! You need to have a 4 tier shelve and put all these babies all turned on together extending screen via Linux (X11) doing a big mosaic of a Thinkpad logo with their screens!
I accidentally locked my FN key and didn't know how to unlock it. Turns out the Num Loc key will unlock it
Oh wow gaming on this thing?? lol ya definitely need to stick with quite old games.. When my main PC's PSU died I looked up what games I could play on it and gave up on that :P
I have one. Was my dad's. Not my main PC of course lol. Just a junk one. :P
Quick question, is the charger pin of this laptop any different than the the present day DELL charger pins? I know we have two diameters and this uses the bigger diameter but is the little pin inside any different? Thanks.
It shouldn't be different where the charger plugs into. I've used the the big barrel style on all of my dell laptops since 2004 machines to as late as some 2021 dell models. The big barrel style Dell DC jacks have always been the same size. The only way that they vary is how the DC jack is plugged into the laptops motherboard (the white connector). It is vastly different from inspirons and latitudes. Most XPS and Inspirons will use the smaller style barrel DC jack.
Awesome bro! It'd bee a good idea to get a better camera. I would have liked seeing all the details of each one of those beauties.
I am still using this laptop 😅
Can you link me to the 9 cell OEM battery please.
I have Linux Mint running on a 12 year old T520, runs great, daily driver.
Same but my runs Windows 8.1
Try Windows 11

Hey, you look like a pro. I have a ThinkPad 385 CD. How rare is it? I can't find any information about this model, and I conclude that it is quite rare. But how much?
Thank you! I would say it’s rarer model. It’s a lower end of the 700 series and I wouldn’t imagine that the 300 series is too sought after. Especially if it’s still working, many of those models in that line had several issues when coming off the assembly line. I’d give it a 7/10 on my personal rarity scale
@@fazedawaymachinesonline wow! OK, thank you!
great video, how much did they cost you ?
I appreciate it! Only $120 and both of them were in great condition
@@oussama4629 The one that I have currently has a 1600 X 900 display, upgraded to a i7-3740QM and 8GB of 1866mhz ddr3, Samsung 870 EVO
Awesome collection! Any plans to pick up any more ThinkPad's?
Thank you! Oh definitely more to come. Got to at least own all of the machines on my bucket list
how to dowload contre strik
My sister and I counted either 56 or 57 times. Good video!
Nice video, man! Gave you a sub! 👌
And also reset
Can you tell me how to remove the bios password in think pad t61
Honestly, I'm interested about Genshin, could You cover that please? Btw. You earned a new sub, LTT became to annoying <3
For sure! I honestly didn’t know what it was till I looked it up but yeah I can definitely try it. Did you want me to play it on this machine or just in general? I’m glad to hear you subscribed!
Should i still buy this or a t480?
Hello sir, I have the same model, did you find the fingerprint sensor in it ? Please guide me if it has.... Thank you.
If you’re model is configured with one it will have it either on the lower right hand corner of the display bezel for tablet models or near the touch pad on the palmrest for standard models
I have one of these and currently have the problem that it’s not turning on, which another video indicated might be a faulty USB port and if that’s disabled can come on again. Maybe the problem is that I have a DVD in it, this was practical for watching DVDs and that’s basically what I used it for over the past several years… Now I have a DVD in there and it’s stuck and does not want to come out ;-) … do you think that if I have the USB thing taken care of, I don’t think I have the experience to try it on my own but know somewhere I think can do it, do you think then that the DVD features should work? (including spitting it back out! 😂) It’s been a very reliable machine for me otherwise, served me for a good number of years! I’m not a gamer, did more Word documents etc. for translations and so on.
Oh nice, most of these laptops with the nvidia video card like mine have either all failed or are experiencing end of life issues which I think is what is happening to yours if it won’t turn on. The Vostro line wasn’t intended to last forever and no machine ever has a guarantee on how long it will last. Maybe the USB port could be an issues but in my finding, either the port won’t flat out work or the machine will keep erroring with a usb message that says something along the lines of too much voltage or a generic error. I would try and see if you can get the dvd drive out of the laptop, it should have a paper clip sized pin hole to manually eject it. I’m not sure it there is already one on the case but I would give that a try. Good luck!
@@fazedawaymachinesonline thanks for your speedy reply! Someone else gave me the tip about the paper clip hole as well, but I don’t see one. It’s just for inserting like into a sleeve, no hole to pop anything out (I think you called it a slot drive) have I missed a little hole somewhere?… 🤔
Where can I download the thinkpad list?
Just curious what screen you decided on. There are a lot of options and i don't want to get a lousy screen if i'm going to take the time to upgrade it.
I had bough a bright focal unit from Amazon, $77 dollars
Wanted to hate t440p, but love it. Just due to the underhood room (behind just two screws!)… sure hasswell runs hot but for $10-20 and an maybe 2 hours from concept to finish - mod your heatsink and 4810mq runs great. Or if you really wanna nerd out, the way the heatsink is positions mirroring the primary harddrive slot (dual heatsink!) I’m sure you could manage some extreme chip 4712mq has better performance and saves power life Over 4600mq interesting Still have to choose t430 however But 4700mq is great suggestion, with stock build I wouldn’t recommend over 4710 tbh. But you know you can sell the i5 for 70% what you buy a 4700mq btw, if you have i5-4200m Sk hynix gold is alright but 870 evos got cheap! If you can get ahold of ax310 or liteON’s backlight board, it is amazing.
I 100% agree. Looking past the issues with the built in whitelists, it is a really great machine. I might mod the heat sink or add one for a gt730 video card model. I’d personally pick the 4712mq, I’d rather have battery over performance in the machine. I have upgraded to a 1tb Samsung EVO. I don’t need 1TB but why not lol. I’d love to go further in modding but I’m currently using this as my daily driver. I might buy another to tinker around with bios flashing and full nitty gritty mods. It’s more of a time issue than anything but the T440p has been an excellent daily driver since posting this video. Thank you also for the suggestions, I’ll be sure to brings those up in the next video!
Super informative video and very in depth. Exactly what I was hoping to find! Planning on picking one up locally for about the same price. Thanks!
Awesome I’m glad to hear. I’ll make another video soon as I have done even more upgrades to it. No problem :) If you have any questions, leave me a comment and I’ll get back to you as fast as I can
Please take the battery out before exposing the internals 😬
I know, these machine are pretty tough as I’ve tried to shock one but it still wouldn’t break. Plus I always static discharge myself before handing any electronics. I’ve made my mistakes. I saw you’re comment about what I use it for and somehow it disappeared. I use it for general use such as email, teamviewer sessions on occasion for work, and writing documents in office. As of right now no plans to video edit or heaving gaming, just a daily driver laptop
@@fazedawaymachinesonline I understand,But it's always the time when you least expect something to go wrong ,That's awesome you tested these machines for shock,And I got one 2 years ago great laptop,I have the same specs minus the ram ,I just ordered a charger some reason it wouldn't charge so I am hoping it's just the charger ,Also forgive me I'm on my back up phone if you see any errors
@@MrSonic731 I totally agree. The dc jack is replaceable on these machines. If you’re still getting no charging with a new charger then you can try replacing the dc jack where the charger plugges into. After that, if the issue still occurs it may be a motherboard issue
@@fazedawaymachinesonline new charger just came in ,Didnt have it connected to the wall lol and im over here talking about 'power surges" haha well atleast i have two now
@@MrSonic731 Well then that would help to be plugged in lol. It’s good to have two I have replaced so many of those square tip chargers a lot at work
hi techgeeker sandy in aussie here i have my fav lenovo T430 ..mmm cannot unlock bloody bluetooth ..any ideas.. batemans bay south coast .drop in for a brew
I love the T430 as well. As far as the Bluetooth, is it not allowing new Bluetooth devices? Sorry for the late response, Christmas season has been robbing me of all my time.
hey tech guy thanks for getting back to me ..no apology needed youngun..my t430 s bluetooth is turned off ..doesnt search at all .simply says switch on bluetooth ..lenovos site cant help..im really not tooo worried ..it would be good though..using plug ins atm thanks agin for getting back to me sandy
@@sandymckinnon3595 Do you get any wireless networks? Go to device manager and right click and uninstall your wireless and bluetooth card under the network adapters section. Once you do that restart the laptop. If that doesn't work try a new user profile. If that doesn't work then i would replace your wifi card with another one and see if that fixes the issue. If you have trouble with bluetooth after taking all those steps the card that the wireless network and blutooth are on usually go bad. Hope this helps
mr geekster thanks for your prompt reply .yess to first question have full broadband connex..also tried to uninstall bluetooth lock ..WILLnot allow me..so no problemo as bart would say..plug in head phones .as you say cards dead..cheers mate [ i am an aussie after all ]
Hello, around the key hole, should be there a light? I think I remember mine had (Outlander 2006). However it doesn't turn on anymore
I've never seen a light on mine since I had owned it. It may be the light ring has worn out. I'm not too sure on a replacement for the newer years since they changed a couple of things
What was the car doing before you changed it? Been having a problem with mine when I put the key in and turn it does not start.
I had to jiggle the key in the switch to let it start
I had to really twist on the key for it to start. Like a flick twist of the key because the contacts were so worn out. It got bad enough I almost couldn't start the car at a gas station. Good thing the part wasn't that bad. Hope this helps.
Does anything need to be reprogrammed after the ignition switch is changed?
As long as it's just the switch, you wont need to reprogram anything
It's only if your changing the entire lock cylinder and key, you will need to reprogram the new key to the car
@@fazedawaymachinesonline thanks for the video, was really helpful! Got mine changed and the car starts fine now! Like you, I had a lot of trouble trying to slide that piece off. I ended up twisting it off as well. But there's an issue that has popped up I changed the switch. After I take my key out of the ignition, the key sensor still beeps as if the key is still in. Can't figure out why, I might've damaged some kind of key detector sensor while trying to put the steering column cover back on. Edit: Fixed the key detector issue.
@@EMW_Music I’m glad to hear! On occasion I’d have an issue with the key Immobilizer but they key started falling apart so it’s my guess it was just the key getting worn out from use. If you have a green car with a key imprint on it on the dash, that’s the key immobilizer. Usually it happens when I had the steering wheel cocked at a weird angle while I was trying to start the car. Just wiggle the steering wheel and it should go away (just a tip if it happens)
I know im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to log back into an instagram account? I was stupid lost my password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me.
Can you tell me wifi card name ? Because I format this laptop and windows 10 didn't found the network adapter
It stopped charging since last week. It's showing 0% even if plugged. What should i do?
Sorry for the late reply, I don't use this account to often. Use Lenovo vantage, its free in the Microsoft store for Lenovo pc's. Then after setting up the app, go to power and then click on view battery or something close to that degree. It should tell you what condition the battery is in. Most of the time if it stays at 0% it means that the battery has gone bad.
Just change the battery and it should be fine.
The battery is probably dead. Thankfully you can easily replace the battery with a new one because ThinkPads are great to fix and repair
I did scroll over the vid, and it always started with an 'um'
That's how it is LOL
