ThinkPad t420s wireless

I bought a t420s to replace my dead 410 s. It cam without a wireless card, but it won't let me use my 410 map s.

Unauthorized network card is plugged in - power off and remove the miniPCI network card.

Is there a way to get around this? I was sure that she would accept another card of thinkpad.

No, there is no way around that. The T420s has a whitelist, and you can use the cards on this white list. Unless find you a way to Flash a modded BIOS, that does not work the last time I checked.

See the part number #5 in the figure: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/pd009913

If you want to be sure they work 100%, you can order these parts from Lenovo.

Reference number you can is: 60Y3233

  • I started having problems with the wireless mouse and the carpet of my laptop - Lenovo ThinkPad T420 mouse.

    Original title: right click on the mouse itself activating

    I borrowed a USB to a person at work and I started having problems with the wireless mouse and the carpet of my laptop - Lenovo ThinkPad T420 mouse. The left click of two devices works normally, however, sometimes she does not respond to clicks and it takes a few seconds to work. The left button was constantly starts to turn on, as if he was stuck. After that I hit Alt + Tab and modify windows it stops for a few moments and starts at a later date. I havo not found a specific condition or a combination of keys that may trigger the fault.

    I read a few posts on discussion forums, but all say that it could be a hardware problem, which I think is not, because both devices have the same problem and I'm sure it all started with the insertion of the borrowed memory stick. I scanned the readers to help Symantec's EndPoint Protection and installed Microsoft Security Essentials and performed a full scan, but found nothing. I even restored the system, but the problem remains.

    Should I get a different antivirus? How can I find the cause so I can find a better targeted solution?

    Try to install the drivers from this link and check.

  • ThinkPad T420 recovery problem

    Hi all

    I need your help. I have a problem with ThinkPad T420. When I am pressing ThinkVintage or F11 to get into recovery, it loads and then I get this message below;

    Link to image

    Don't know how to solve this problem, thank you!

    If partitions System_DRV and Lenovo_Recovery (q) has not been resized or corrupt, R & R should work. So, I guess to upgrade/reinstall application Lenovo Rescue & recovery via ThinkVantage System Update because there are a lot of conditions to perform this task manually (eg. There are several options for deployment and language packs).

    If this does not help, it could be better and more quickly to create a Lenovo recovery media, it's almost the same Lenovo recovery environment you try to start using BB or F11:
    -make it from Lenovo R & R application, advanced mode, rescue media
    - or simply deploy a .iso file image:
    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Lenovo\Rescue and Recovery\rrcd

    Note, in any case, it is a good practice to have this rescue media.

    If you want to reset the laptop to the factory scene, do it from recovery media factory Lenovo.

  • Black screen on a lenovo Thinkpad T420

    Hello, I m a proud owner of a lenovo thinkpad T420. My screen remains black with blacklighting on when I try to boot with a linux live cd, I can t see the office nothing. I tried with an external display, same result. And when I restart the computer with windows, everything seems normal. Please help me!

    I tried to use the Ubuntu distribution

    Also, which version of Ubuntu or under Live CD do you use? The reason I ask is because it should be relatively new. For example, there should be no problem with anything out of the Oct/Nov the year last to this day. Try 16 11.10 Ubuntu or Fedora or Linux Mint 12. One of these should work.

    Good luck!

  • Update on Thinkpad T420 Intel graphics card

    Hello!

    I have a Thinkpad T420 with Windows 7. When I try to update my driver Intel Graphics HD (version 8.15.10.2538) than the Lenovo Web (version 9.17.10.3347) site, I get the error message "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software."

    Page Intel tells me that I have either the wrong driver (which should not be the question because I got from Lenovo driver support page) or the version of the OS (I advanced and tried both the 32 and 64 bit driver, nothing works) or that I don't have Intel graphics card (but I do).

    Is my processor simply not taken in charge by the updated more? I have an Intel Core i5 - 2520M. Or does perhaps have problems with my NVIDIA graphics card?


  • With the help of sleep - ThinkPad T420

    I was told that using sleep instead of turn off my ThinkPad T420 will destroy him. Is this true? I find practice never to shut down the computer, but I don't want to cause any damage.

    @sliderda2b,.

    I do not see how it will destroy the laptop, unless the laptop did not enter "sleep mode" correctly and is still ongoing when you put it in a laptop bag which causes the laptop overheats. (happened to my friend before laptop computer).

    Personally I use hibernate, I activated its "beep" that the laptop goes into sleep mode extended, then when it stops beeping means that the laptop is already in hibernation. Works everytime for me =)

  • Max ThinkPad T420 Dockingstation DisplayPort resolution

    Hello

    What is the max of the ThinkPad T420 docking resolution? I would like to connect a monitor with a 2560 x 1080 at 60 Hz resolution...

    Thank you and best regards

    If you are using DisplayPort, it won't work. DVI port is single link and therefore capped at 1920 x 1080. VGA may or may not be able to drive it.

  • Red blackBerry exclamation Z10 there is in the battery icon when it is connected to the Thinkpad T420

    I'm new here and the Z10 is my first BlackBerry smartphone.

    I noticed that when I out took it of the box and connected to my Thinkpad T420 that was running Windows 8, it started to charge the battery and it was OK, and then I installed the link of BlackBerry that comes with it and after that I restarted my laptop, there is a red in the battery icon exclamation point , and it seemed that he was arrested for battery.

    I uninstalled the link BlackBerry and after restart, it began to charge the battery again.

    I don't know if this is a bug or not.

    Thank you.

    I have not tried the phone with Windows 8.

    I am trained on technical support for Windows 7, and I do technical support for Windows 7.  At the moment I have no training to win 8 support.  If your device is running Windows 8 - RT, I would put a strong bet on a compatibility issue with the link for the phone drivers. If the device uses the standard Win 8 OS, then I would be inclined to think that it is a problem of compatibility of equipment of a certain type. From what I read link is supposed to work with Win 8. I do not know RT

    Read on...

    I think of how link installed on Win 7 systems, that it comes with its own drivers. I never watched very closely into that because I never had a problem with the link using Win 7.  I had some problems with XP on some older computers. Without the software Link installed Win 7 installs its own generic drivers.

    I also found with Win 7 computers with the former manager of office installed, these drivers to work also with the Z10 to charge and be able to read the card SD and memory of the phone via the USB port. Software Desktop Manager does not work with the Z10.

    Try if you can do it in 8 Win.  Install the software Link. Go to the properties of system with the phone BB device.  Uninstall the phone in the hardware section. This should uninstall the drivers. Restart the computer with the phone powered on and connected. I'm game if drivers Win 8 BB will be installed on the recovery that the pilots of the link. I never tried with Win 8. It may be interesting the shot.

    Something else interesting to try if this does not work, connect the Z10 using an external powered USB HUB between him and the computer. The CENTRE acts as a buffer. Maybe the OS will react differently this way.  I had problems where a powered USB HUB solved some problems with specific USB devices. It's more with printers, scanners and GPS devices.

    Another problem is that I believe that your Thinkpad works more like a Tablet than a full blown computer. This may be a problem with the software Link. It would be interesting to know if someone else who reads this, use the Link software on a desktop or full blast laptop computer that runs 8 Win. If so and there is no problem, this should limit the problem the T420, rather than the system Win 8 or the software link itself.

    Another interesting looking thing is so that the phone can not load the Link software able to read the phone anyway?  If so, you may have to live with the fact you can save and restore the phone with the T420, but not load.

    If you sync the phone with Hotmail, you will have a form of a backup of your contacts, and I also believe that data. I tried syncing the phone with Yahoo and Gmail. Gmail has had lots of questions. Yahoo has worked but not exceptional. I found that Hotmail works best with the Z10 for synchronization.

    If you have Outlook, you can install the Outlook Hotmail sync tool. This is available on the website of Ms. It is called Outlook connect if I remember correctly. This way you can configure MS Outlook to sync with your Hotmail account. This will keep the phone and your Outlook all synchronised with Hotmail.  I do this with a number of Z10 with great success. You will need to make yourself a Hotmail e-mail account. Then, you will need to do some reading to get it going.

  • Can the Thinkpad T420/T520 manage Diablo 3?

    With the NVIDIA Quadro NVS4200M option? I know Thinkpads are not intended for games, but it's probably the only game that I play. Someone got experience with Diablo 3 playing on these systems? If so, what are the acceptable parameters to play in and how is the FPS? Please enter you!

    I can confirm that the game can be played on your computer. Mine is T520, i5 - 2450M, 8 GB RAM, NVIDIA Quadro NVS 4200 M and it works perfectly on low details. On high details, it is playable but kida lag and will probably keep you low details.
