So my T400 might have exhausted all 9 lives...

A month ago, I tried to fix the lock on my T400; the left side closed automatically once the lid closed. In the middle of disassembly, I forgot which screws to take off. I went home with my screwdriver and eventually remove the screws for the rails of the LCD in place now. Ultimately, it happened that the Panel broke the lid and faceplanted on the keyboard. Reassembly, I discovered to my dismay that the backlight didn't; There was no visible light emanating from it, even if the image was perfectly fine.

At first, I thought it was the LCD issue and having ordered and replaced the Panel without result (no backlight, visible image), I noticed that the connector 40pin for the LCD cable has been damaged (angle and two missing pins). So I ordered a piece of replacement of parts of IBM in Toronto.

The new cable came, and much to my displeasure, seemed to be the right size for my T400 despite all the required documents. However, I installed the new cable and a new LCD Panel. Still nothing; no backlight, just an image.

From there, looks like the problem is with the motherboard, power supply to the lighting parts; everything else works great, I used it for the past month, hooked up to an external monitor.

So my question is: what are the chances of that third-party motherboard repair shops (repair, not replace) will be able to fix the problem?

(Also, if spare parts IBM sent me my T400 properly installed or do I have to take issue with them?)

Ultimately, it discovered that the motherboard was damaged as well as the LCD screen. Because I was out of warranty, I opted for the motherboard repaired rather than replaced and put in the LG Panel I bought after walking.

However, I noticed that they do not have the original live back in many places, what irks me a little.

As a side note, I think I preferred the Samsung on the LG screen it is more difficult to calibrate and whites are indeed less white than on the Samsung.

Thank you!

  • First of the ProL Apple audio filters (AUGraphicEQ, specifically) not functioning / appearing and have exhausted all threads

    Just migrated from OS to Windows and I am no longer able to use Apple "to THE" audio filters, including AUGraphicEQ. Have you tried:

    (1) reboot holding SHIFT

    (2) resettlement program

    (3) a new analysis plugins

    (4) support Adobe by phone (lol)

    Loading project I get the following error message: "missing Audio filter: 1735550321 1634758764 4:1635083896.

    Now written the effect in the effects Control Panel: "Filter (offline)" and by activating / deactivating the "fx" button doesn't do anything.

    After that be hung up to Support Adobe once I was on hold for 22 minutes... so needless to say it's a little bit my last hope. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    Apple Audio units (AU) filters are available only in Mac OS; You can't use them on Windows, so if your project is using these you will receive the error message (unfortunately not descriptive). Effect references are stored in the project file when you transfer the project between the operating systems, so that if you return to a system with the desired effect, they will appear in the effect controls panel. The same happens with transitions and effects of third installed.

    There is no direct resolution, as the effect parameters can be translated in any native Premiere Pro effects provided with the application. You will need to either finish the project on Mac OS, or replace them with similar effects; in this case, the built-in "EQ" would probably be your closest match. Of course, you need to set the parameters to your liking.

  • Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

    Windows XP SP3 problem

    Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

    This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

    It's certainly interesting!

    If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
    SHOULD work!
    I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
    Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
    and try the SP3 Setup file again.
    But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
    1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
    2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.

    Remove all external devices such as printers and scanners connected to the computer and then try to start.

    As you mentioned you don't have a CD/DVD drive on the computer and you are not able to boot in any mode, there are only two options:

    a. you will need to connect external CD/DVD drive to the computer for further troubleshooting.

    b. you must contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    Q: I have transferred all my iPhone 6 more apps to my iPad Pro. When I went in Clash of Clans I expected to be at the point, (level) I am with my phone? Rather than start from the beginning!

    Any tips?

    Are you signed the same center of game username and password?

    The other thing I can think is clash of Clans a universal application? The button 'get' was a sign? If it isn't then you can play a different game... by that I mean, there's game has scaled for iPHones and game set B nationally for iPads... they have the same game but different - just like a cover can be the same brand and color but different model for different iPads.

    Is it possible to load the CD (that I put on iTunes years ago) on an iPod Nano to iTunes 9.0.3 (15) on an old MacBook (OS 10.5.8)? This is my last chance, as the later versions of iTunes have deleted all this precious music, so I can't be wrong!

    It is unclear what you are asking, but if the question is (retired), the can transfer songs that are on an iPod nano (and nowhere else) to my current computer? 

    You cannot use iTunes.  By design, iTunes sync is generally in one direction, from your computer to the iPod.  The exception is purchased songs on the iTunes Store, iTunes can verify ownership of these songs (command in the menu bar iTunes -> devices-> transfer purchases of [name of the iPod] file).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'the ipod transfer', you should get a few links, including a CNET article.

    Once the files of the song on your disc, you can add them to your current iTunes library.
