ThinkPad R61


Hi sarge119,

Welcome to the forum of Lenovo!

Sorry it took awhile for you to get a response. Your 7733-11U has an Intel graphics chip, which consumes less energy than the Nvidia GPU, which came with a few R61s (thanks for the display of your model type number). Without doubt, it came with the adapter 65W rather than the adapter 90W for this reason. The 3 cards that you mention are compatible with your ThinkPad.The is important: 20V, at least 65 w. And I recommend you an authentic rather than imitations Lenovo adapter that you can find on eBay (for example).

Which card you choose comes down to personal preferences:

  • The 65W adapter is smaller and lighter.
  • The adapter 90W * may * charge your battery faster during execution of your ThinkPad.
  • The adapter 3 pin is 'more correct' for international usage, but its power line is heavier and more bulky than the 2 adapter pin (which also works very well for international use).

More info on 2 - vs 3-pin adapters here.

Best regards

Frank

All software and drivers are installed but I stil have an exclamation mark in the Device Manager on the network controller. No matter what I do, I have re - install, drivers or when I search for an updated driver can't do the device to recognize a valid driver.

    can someone help or advise please

    Hi hoodie and welcome to the Lenovo user community!

    Checkin just something: Lenovo driver facilities require two steps 1. Extract 2. Install. When you double-click on the driver download are extracted, usually in a C:\DRIVERS folder. Then you go to this directory and run the Setup program, usually setup.exe. The directory and installation method may vary - check the installation instructions. You do the two steps?

  • Stuck in 'Print to file' in Windows Vista, Thinkpad R61

    The last time I tried to 'Print to File' a .txt file, a file was created, that I could not open with various software (never had a problem in the past).  Now I can't print any file on my printer, even if the Print to File is not checked.  It is not the printer because I can print a test page to the printer.  I tried to disconnect and reconnect, defragmentation and restart.  Run the utility on the hard drive, no problems identified.   What should I do now?  Thanks for your help.

  • Windows 7 Activation pro on Lenovo Thinkpad R61

    I need to know what to do when Windows wants to 2 product keys different for Windows 7 Pro.
    I think I must solve this problem prior to March 15th any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    The operating system is Windows XP. I did what I thought was to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro.OEM. During activation, I changed the product key to match the product key on my Windows 7 disc. Activation has been confirmed successfully on February 15, 2016.

    I now get to activate reminders. My technical knowledge is limited, so I looked for help on the internet. There was advice to run slui 4 to get a phone number and speak to an operator, it is automated now if that does not work...

    Also, I have downloaded and run Windows Genuine Advantage. He produced a report that is over my head the most. The validation code is 0, the product name is Windows 7 Professional, (partial) how to product key does not match the product key that has been activated successfully. I ran a keyfinder and now have a full product key, which seems to fit the part produced by the report.

    Story.

    I bought this laptop refurbished. She has Windows Genuine stickers for Vista and XP. When I ordered disks of backup of XP, I was told it was actually a Windows 7 machine and that he must have changed.

    The second problem has been resolved.

  • R61: Wireless LAN Driver (RAHUL-70504)

    Hello

    I just finished a clean install of Win XP on a Lenovo ThinkPad R61.

    All the required drivers are installed, except for the Intel Wireless LAN (bg, abg, abgn) driver.

    When you try to download the driver here:

    http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70504

    I get the following error on the page:

    Does anyone know if there is a maintenance of websites going on right now, and when this download will be available again?

    If anyone has an alternative download location that I can use that would be a great help.

    Thank you.

  • R61 supported memory Max

    Nobody knows with certainty what is the maximum RAM (memory) supported by ThinkPad R61 8933 - A38.

    In addition, which is faster memory that can use this laptop?

    Documentation of Lenovo took the R61 reason was in effect. There is no 4 GB memory modules for laptops and documents have never been updated. The chipset on the R61 will support 8 GB as opposed to the R60 that can support a maximum of 3 GB due to a limitation of the chipset.

    In oder will be necessary to use more than 3.25 GB under a 64-bit version of Windows, the CPU T7100-2M-Cache-1_80-GHz-800-MHz-FSB will also support a 64 bit OS.

    In my T61, which, according to the specifications can support 4 GB (same story as R61), I'm actually 6 of GB in the original 1 x 2 GB DDR2 667 and 1 x 4 GB DDR2 800 (running at 667) with Win 7 x 64.

  • Conversion of Vista/XP on R61 problem

    Hi all!

    It's my first time here and I really hope that someone will be able to solve my problem because I'm already desperate.

    Recently, I bought the Thinkpad R61, model NF5DEPB with Windows Vista professional. I met problems with connecting to network wi - fi, an essential software for me did not work so I decided to convert it into Xp Pro. I have 3 CDs, labeled:

    -Rescue and recovery CD for use with Microsoft Windows XP

    -Product recovery CD

    -Complementary product recovery CD

    I followed the instructions provided by Microsoft Windows XP inserted, Rescue and Recovery CD Manual Conversion Kit, he opened a workspace, choose options were slightly different than the one given in the manual, but I chose the one that was the most appropriate in my opinion, kept pressing Next and then he asked a second CD (manual says it would be extra recovery disk) , I inserted it and it didn't recognize it. Then it does not recognize any CD of these 3, then in system information, I noticed that my HARD drive is off somehow, I can not boot from anything else that this workspace, the CD of rescue and recovery always opens, I can not restore any system, I can not finish installing impossible to reinstall Vista yet once, unable to restore the original settings HARD drive coz it tells me I have no HARD drive and I have no idea what to do now.

    Is it possible to solve this problem, or only support can help me now?

    I'd appreciate any help!

    Good, solved =)

    It turns out that there was some kind of a bug during reboot and the conversion could not continue, I had to repeat all several times until finally a way this has worked.
