How to check a second hand T43p.

Hello

I bought a second hand T43p at a friend's House.

And how do I check if it is refurbished or repaired? What quality problems I'll pay attention to?

The computer is aesthetically very clean. Only some wear on the keyboard. So, I was curious enough, as this model is released in 2005 and on the market until 2007. Then why not so there to clean the machine. The COA lable is always there. And no sign of refurbished label.

Photos attached here.

Can anyone give me some suggestions?

Thank you

Simon

If it has the factory preload OS on it you can pitch it up and either:

(1) press the ThinkVantage button when you see the splash screen of IBM and run PC Doctor of the Rescue and Recovery application. OR

(2) let Windows boot, Run PC Doctor for Windows. AND

Run a full series of tests and if it passes you should be in good shape.

Don't worry renovated or not (probably not by the appearance of warranty page).

  • Clock does not second hand.

    When I see the clock in the choice of gadget, there a 2ndhand. However, when I move the clock in my sidebar, the second hand disappears. I right click options but there is nothing.

    Why the clock shows a flea market at first, but not when I chose to use it? How can I get second hand work?

    Since my display tray has a clock works perfectly except NO second hand, why would I want a sidebar clock, with the exception of second hand? What a waste of time.

    By default, Windows Vista does not display the seconds hand, which can be a little awkward in the clock gadget. If you want to see it, click on the boxdisplay the second hand . Vista will then display and move the needle of the seconds in red and in real time:

    Click on "view 2nd hand.

    End result... with 2nd hand

    You have installed?  Which means that you went down and bought Windows XP all by himself in a retail establishment and it is a retail license, not a cheaper OEM license?

    I asked a tech savvy friends to help me buy. He brought me a real CD, a product with COA and a manual Win XP key (they came sealed) and reception. It cost me about $160 (actually 7800 Indian rupees). I still have the COA product key, hologrammed CD sticker.

    The CoA sticker wasn't on the hard plastic case?  Sounds like an OEM version - which once installed is "linked" to this computer/motherboard.

    Reinstall Vista:

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Re: How to use the second hard drive in Satellite A300?

    I got a second hand Satellite A300 which was to be thrown out due to a defective DVD.
    I fixed the DVD and have a perfect system.

    On opening the box, I discovered that there 2 x 250 GB hard drives. I checked CMOS and show the 2 drives. However, Vista displays only the a drive.

    Excuse my ignorance, but how do I access to the second drive?

    I have Satellite A300 with two hard drives and each HARD drive has another operating system. Both hard drives are recognized correctly.
    I put t know what the problem is here, but the two hard disks should be recognized automatically.
    Try to set the BIOS to default settings and check again.
    Try to start the check and install Microsoft bootable disk if the two hard disks are displayed in Setup.

    I just hope that there is not a hardware problem.

    Hello

    Browse the following documents carefully & follow him.

    Test a HDD in BIOS ; Laptops HP - how to run the hard drive Test

    Hard disk failure errors

    Test the hard drive by using SMART

    Normally the HP disk HARD Selft Test works well, but the information stored in S.M.A.R.T indicates that your HARD drive will fail.

    It seems the automatic test crashes if there is a bad sector that has not yet been remapped. If you back up all your data before performing a full format on the disc it will fix the problem (assuming it's the same problem I had). In the meantime, I would check what are the SMART test results... you may have a faulty hard drive. (one or two bad sectors are not as bad as HP are affected because these will be remapped as soon as a write is attempted on them).

    If it gets corrupted, go for another one again.

    First of all trying to read the above documents and try to do it again.

  • How to check if a windows 7 valid license

    Return of a local company who renovate and sell old computers from companies that upgrade their IT, I bought a Dell PC second-hand about a year. It came with Windows 7 installed, which I assume was an OEM copy - certainly, everything seemed fine until I installed SP1. This grew up messages that my copy was invalid, and I now have a black screen instead of the wallpaper.

    Is it possible to check if this license has been blacklisted by mistake, or if this company should not have been shipping the PC with Windows 7?

    There are no disks, packaging or manuals with the PC, but I assumed that with versions OEM would not be there. However, the site of "How to say" only covers check the packaging of what I see.

    Assuming this isn't a valid copy, what are my options? The PC has Windows XP sticker - no doubt it is originally shipped with XP installed. I would be able to use this license to upgrade or would it only valid for the original purchaser?

    I'd just be able to buy a license and what is the usual cost? Softwareplanet (http://www.software-planet.co.uk/) list a Windows 7 Ultimate key for £30 - it seems authentic or it's too expensive?

    Last question, can I "downgrade" the version of Windows installed to the easiest to save on the cost of the key if I do not need to buy one? I don't need ultimate, it's just what has been installed. I'd be happy with just at home, but I have to do a complete reinstall?

    Windows license Type: OEM SLP


    Your installation uses an OEM SLP key to be installed at the factory at the time of manufacture. Yours was not.  your bios date 11/05/2007 is earlier than the version of windows 7 in 2 years. Your installation is not valid (pirates)
    You need to buy and install a legitimate windows.
    more information:
    (A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

    Do not post your phone number, users of public forums - I asked the host to remove it.

    How is it locked? If it is locked to a carrier then contact the carrier that it is locked, only they can potentially unlock it.

    If you mean than locking activation and it is locked on behalf of the previous owner via the settings > iCloud then contact that person, no one here (or Apple) can help.
