• T500 migrate win 7 32 bit to 64 bit

  Hello

  I know that it is possible to migrate 32 bit OS to 64-bit, I called Lenovo support for discs recovery order,

  They said that, in Poland rcovery media will not be sent,

  My question is how to migrate win 7 32-bit to 64-bit?

  How to get the instalation/recovery Lenovo support?

  I'm assuming that the system was built by Lenovo and Lenovo is an OEM distributor and so Lenovo is responsible

  send installation media, but how when Lenovo Poland sends me to microsoft, and microsoft has sent me to the Lenovo OEM retailer?

  Help me.

  Lenovo has maintained a policy that the user can buy the 64-bit support, perhaps you should call again and tell them you want to buy the 64-bit support to the recovery.

• Installing Windows 10 on T500, Windows 7 migration

  During the installation of 10 window, a message appears that the media required driver is missing (DVD, USB or fixed disk). Looking for the driver, I find an ovierview, saying that W10 does not work on T500. Is this correct?

  -Otherwise, where I can download the required drivers?

  -Si W10 does not work on T500, how can I go back to Windows 7? No possibility to continue more away from this error message.

  Thread can be closed, because I finally managed to restart Windows 7. Thanks to all the volunteers, think of a solution for my problem as specified above.

  Just for your information: the text of detailed explanation for my readings of problem window-10:

  0 x 1900101-0x3000D

  The installation was not successful. In the FIRST STARTING phase, an error occurred during the process of MIGRATION-DATA.

  Whatever that means, it does not increase my confidence in W - 10.

• T500 to T540P migration

  I previously did a T500 OS system image and everything. The T500 is on it is the last step. I got a T540P as a replacement but I want to migrate the T500 Image system restore on my T540P.

  I know it's doable, because I did it BUT the problem is, I think that downloads. It seems that when I go to update software once the image is done the downloads T540P. (Lenovo PM, display and graphics drivers) where the reboot happens I get to Startng Windows screen and 4 bubbles that get together and then pulses. But it still says here. At least, I stopped after like 30 minutes.

  Does anyone know if a picture of the previous system can be made and how?

  Any information is greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  Image the whole OS, the T500 and T540p are miles in addition to being compatible, driver-wise.

  so an image/cloning your old drive causes a lot of problems and cost you twice as much

  a lot of time in repairs for the new system set up from scratch.

  For your files and settings, you can use the file transfer tool in Windows, but it is a laminated tool I

  personally, don't like. I've seen too many problems with it over the years. He is not trustworthy. But

  When it works as it should, it's a really cool and easy tool for such transfers.

  A simple copy of your user records in the new machine covers your files, and if there is

  settings, e-mail files, bookmarks, you can find them in the AppData folder. Local for Outlook, roaming

  for most other programs.

• Hard drive in T500 T61

  With my T61 7665-D61 defect, I bought a T500 and I need all the data to my T61 in my T500 got also a ultrabay (style T61) Player for my music and films and space intensive games, I have a T500 with 160 GB drive with T61 with a 100 GB drive and 80 GB on ultrabay what I have to do. Please notify

  You can install the t61 drive in your t500 and it will start, but if you just want to get the files off of it, you can buy an adapter T500 ultrabay and put the disk in it.

  I have an adapter T500, if you have something of equal value to trade for it.

  PS. What happened to your T61?

• T400/T500: Horizontal USB ports are there?

  Are there only vertical on the T400 and T500 USB ports?

  I think that the current T61 and R61 have ports usb place management, having 3 vertical usb ports are cramped on one side makes life a bit difficult for people with usb accessories oversized.

• ThinInstaller default on T500

  I have ThinInstaller in my environment (SCCM with UpdateRetriever), but it has stopped working for our models of T500. As far as I can see 'all' the other models I have are working very well... (I ' v so far tested T60, T61 and S20)

  Tasksequence thininstaller software works very well. And I can't be running the thininstaller works great too, each update of the ThinInstaller is to settle.

  However on my models T500 something "breaks" and the customer (?) SCCM stops sending updates on the SCCM server...

  Something in the installation of ThinInstaller must break the communication with my SCCM server... Anyone?

  \Svenn-Erik

  Cause:

  Share corrupt TVUR (.xml files)

  Solution:

  Reinstalled TVUR (Updateretriever) on the server and downloaded all the updates.

  PS. : I tried to import the updates, but the error is still there. I had to download all updates from Lenovo. One bright side updates now take 8GB instead of 13 GB so I saved a HD space

• T500 CPU compatibility?

  I know it probably isn't a very good idea...

  I have a bought T500 4 years with 3 m P8600 2.40 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB cpu.

  Now, sometimes I get a t9300 FF80576T9300 6 M 2.50 GHz, 800 MHz FSB cpu. I wonder if it is possible to replace with T9300 P8600?

  If possible, the lapto will have better performance?

  It is confusing to me because the official T500 datasheet does not list t9300 as an option, but the specifications of the two processor looks great.

  T9300 has a minor advantage in speed and a double L2. But it's actually slower than P8600 FSB. I wonder whether or not to replace P8600 with t9300.

  Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated!

  It's the wrong class of CPU. It is compatible with the generation previous (T61) and will not work in a T500. You can use a T9400 or T9600.

• T500 receives do not update via update system after Exchange of hard drive

  Hello forum,.

  I replaced the broken Samsung 1 TB of HDD in my T500 with a 1 TB WD drive and restored the laptop of my latest backup (restore and recovery). After that everything seemed OK and promising until I realized that the Windows Update client and system update were not able to connect to their corresponding update servers or not able to actually look for updates.

  It took me a while to find an answer and a solution for the problem of Windows Update:

  The Samsung drive had the size of logical sector of 512 bytes, and the size of 512-byte physical sector. However, WD has now logical alternative but 4 k disk size physical sector of 512 bytes. Given that customer Windows Update (Windows 7 x 64 BTW) uses a database of local physics based on the logical sector size could play a role.

  The solution I found was to replace the SATA driver installed by the last RAID Intel rapid storage driver. This corrected some WRT question for sector sizes THAT NTFS is reported to the operating system. And this fixed the problem of Windows Update. Since then, the machine can connect and get Windows updates from Microsoft Windows Update servers again.

  Unfortunately, the fast RAID storage driver installation has not fixed the problem with the system update. Whenever I run the system update it invites me to machine type model, OS and language, and after that, I get the error message

  "The server system is currently unavailable. Please try again later. »

  When I use a second Thinkpad T61 or an old T40 at the same time and run the update system on these machines they are still able to connect and retrieve a list of available updates.

  I know that I could solve the problem by returning to a 1 TB drive with the physical sector size of 512 bytes, or probably a complete reinstallation of Windows 7 hard disk WD.

  So the obvious question is: is there anything else I could do?

  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling system update without success.

  Best regards

  Ralf

  Hi, as I wrote in my first post I already tried your solution without success. System update was not even able to connect to the servers it is (or just showed this error for some reason any). However, I looked at the latest version of the update system released in October (v5.00.0019) and I have replaced v4.03.0012 with that one. And Yes - this time back to normal operation. Thus, TVSU v5 fixed somehow the problem even a never version v4 TVSU wasn't able to fix. The cause of this disorder is still unknown. Best regards, Ralf

• T500 Legacy Keyboard

  So I'm in love with my T500, but I tried the nice red stripes on the T400s keyboard layout keyboard it will work on T500 thanks and have a nice day

• How to level a T61 HDD for one SSD without reinstall?

  Hi all. I bought this ThinkPad, I write with back in 2008 (a T61 6465-CTO with Vista and Intel integrated graphics) and he has been working a lot to me since then. I had no problems with it and his equipment is still able to manage what I have to do. However, I wanted to move her to an SSD HARD drive is faster and snappier. I know that I have would be limited at SATA1 speeds with this camera if I don't want to change the BIOS (which I did not), but I think that even this would be a great improvement on the existing HARD drive.

  To that end, I recently bought an SSD that their prices have dropped slightly (bought a new 120 GB SSD Samsung 840 for less than $100). I said SSD sitting next to me now but I did nothing yet because I want to make sure that I have the right to clone the old disk and swap in the new process. From what I understand instructions, I should:

  1 turn on the computer, install the Samsung Data Migration Software
  2. connect the SSD to a USB port via a USB-SATA Adapter
  3 clone the main for the SSD connected HARD drive using the software of data Migration
  4. turn the computer off, physically remove the old HDD and SSD in its place
  5 turn on the computer and everything should be fact/same as before (with the exception that the computer has a new storage drive)

  Is this correct?

  The HARD drive is encrypted so I removed the password for user/master I have to enter when it starts up, but what I have to do the same for the BIOS password that I am invited to when you turn on the computer? What the hidden; restore partition would clone too much or it would be lost. The HARD drive is in my opinion a 160 GB model, while the SSD is 120 GB but I have read that this difference in capacity should not be a problem since I'm using less of the new disc capacity (I have about 100 GB of free space on the HARD disk)?

  Sorry for all the questions. I have very little experience when it comes to changes in the software/hardware and I really would like to avoid wasting it so I would appreciate any help from people who have knowledge fact how to do this successfully. Thank you.

  The installation that you want to be cloning is optimized for spinning a player - not SSD - and you would have to align in a first time, disable the services later and again, you would not get the performance of a "clean" installation

  You can use any disk Vista installation as long as it matches the version (Home, Pro, full) on your COA - the worst that can happen is that you would have to call MS and activate by phone.

  I had the question why you want to the outdated drivers and other bloat Lenovo recovery partition on expensive SSD space as well, but it's your call. If you provision the reader - and I think you should - you won't initially that much space...

  TRIM running manually is certainly a possibility, but not one that I'm particularly sharp, especially on a small disc of TLC as the Samsung you have. You will need to be on it for not to have slow down for analysis.

  Good luck.

• T60 / T61 / hard T61W compatible cross-training?

  Hi guys:

  I have a question about hard T60 and T61 discs.

  I work for a company where we are gradually T60 laptop computers for the new T410.

  Are we able to use T60 stock hard drives in laptops T61 and T61 (widescreen) if we were to rebuild their image for Windows 7?

  In my view, that we use the 80.0 GB HDD T60 version.

  I also wanted to know if it is backward compatible (if we need older drivers during the upgrade of the OS)-that is, a disk hard T61 or T61W, working in a T60.

  I believe that all hard disks that came with laptop computers, when we bought were the stock 80.0 GB... but would be still the 60.0 GB 5400 RPM (or 7200, I completely forgot that we use) in a book in a T61 so T60 we were to reformat and install Windows 7 top?

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thank you!

  I have just been informed that the tension (or was it amps, I forgot) is different for a T60 and a T61 stock hard drive.

  If this is true (which seems very likely to be), how will this affect performance / use?

  Is there a way to increase the voltage on a hard drive because of the different models?

  How will this affect usability be?

  They use the same type of hard drive, the drive SATA itself may be exchanged between T60 T61, T400/T500, T410/T510.

• Upgrade Ram T500

  My T500 currently has 2 x 2 G @1066 and is expandable to 8 GB-

  I intend to put 4G @1333 + 2 G @ 1066 MHz for a total of 6 G-

  Do you think the people it would be ok?

  It should work well.

  I use this in my T500 for a few months, before I migrated to 8 GB of ram.

• T500 Ultrabay Slim battery

  Hey again everything.

  I wonder if the Ultrabay Slim Battery II housing (which fits in the T61) will enter the new Thinkpad T series. Also, is it useful? How life extra battery I could expect on the standard battery?

  Thank you.

  It will not work. The T61 uses a connector to different optical drive as one of the newest models T400/T500. The T500 uses a SATA connection to the motherboard, which is not the T61/T60. I hope that Lenovo will launch an Ultrabay Battery for the T400/T500 series.
