Ibm Think Pad T30 Beeping error

So i have problem with my ibm think pad T30 i turn it on and this happensVVV
One short beep, pause, three short beeps, pause, three more short beeps, and one short beep.
now based on what ive searched online it says it might be problem either with the
DIMM.
System board
i have no clue how to fix either of these any help or advice?
My laptop: Ibm Thinkpad T30 Windows Xp Pro
im not sure where to find the serial number on it either sadly its kinda old but please respond thanks bye

Love you ajkula66111
I have heen having the same problem with my T40. I put the expansion memory in the orignal slot under the keyboard and it starts up like a dream.
Before I would have to start it up a few times before it would not beep and go to BIOS and then start for real.
summitzl, check out the link (you could probably find the exact one for your computer type, but here is what to look for).

I do not know if you have an expansion memory (slot is on the back of computer, first one listed on the page of how to get to it), but I pulled that one out and put it in my orignal slot since I am pretty sure the expansion one is newer.
Now, I do not know if I should try to put the old one in the expansion slot or what.
THANK YOU!!!

Try to modify the pref ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work. 
Close and restart Firefox after changing the pref.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.

Think Pad E450 - SSD ERROR CODE

Hi all, Just need some help with my laptop, it is only a month or so old, but today I recieved this error code: WHD00V001-UK7BRL Windows is telling me to back up my drive asap as it is critically failing, which is fine, but is my laptop dying? I am a uni student and need my laptop. Thanks for any help.

I had this with a Crucial M5M mSATA SSD, and the solution was to turn the machine off for 20 minutes with no battery and and no power connected, then try again.
The drive failed totally about 2 weeks later though.

Unable to install Rescue & Recovery on X201 Think Pad

I have just bought a pre-owned Think Pad X201-3680-FZ2 laptop with Windows 7 professional, and for my own peace of mind wanted to restore it to factory settings before I start using it.
There are no recovery disks so I have downloaded the Rescue & Recovery 4.52 Setup but when I run the programme it gets to a certain point and then I receive the error message Error 25014. There was an error installing the Rescue and Recovery boot manager. Return code: 6
I have searched for a solution to this problem online, and see that I am not alone, but the responses I find either do not seem to apply to me as the other programmes mentioned are not installed, or I do not understand them.
I am not a computer expert, just a domestic / home office user, so need a solution in very easy to understand terms. The Think Pad I have came with no instruction manuals, and as far as I can see, all the programmes installed relate to the operation of the Think Pad itself. There does not seem to be Rescue & Recovery already installed on the ThinkPad.
Does anyone have a solution to this which they could explain to me in simple terms, please?

What are the partitions labels?
According to the information you've provided:
1. you have fresh installed OS in OEM reduction, it's activated from the BIOS, it's not a Lenovo preloaded image
2. two recovery partitions (recovery workspace and partition for the stored image) were removed during the new OS installation.
Also, needed bootloader was removed so you are facing error regarding R&R installation. Perhaps OS was installed w/o complete drive cleaning.
Are there any archives on the drive? Try to find files with .wim extension (like sdrivebackup.wim and cdrivebackup.wim). It's the only chance previous owner saved preloaded image.
Nevertheless, don't worry, no problem to perform fresh installation

There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\Think Pad\Utilities\PWMTR64V.dll

Getting this error on every reboot: There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\Think Pad\Utilities\PWMTR64V.dll Cannot uninstall Lenovo Power Power Management Drive All on Windows 10 64bit. Lenovo Twist. Had installed the latest version (1.67.10.15).

There are 2 separate things here:
1. Lenovo Power Management Driver - this is supported on Windows 10 but needs to be updated to a recent version: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/migr-4gxpeg
2. Power Manager - this is not supported on Windows 10 and should be uninstalled.
So have you uninstalled "Power Manager"? The PWMTR64V.dll file comes from Power Manager

PC NOT POSTING (NO BEEP ERRORS/CD ROM&FLOPPY = NO POWER)

Before i begin i just want to say that i recently RMA'd my MSI K8n Neo Platinum socket 754 motherboard and they sent me back a refurbished one, this was a few weeks ago..
My setup:
MSI K8n Neo Platinum Socket 754
Windows XP Pro
Athlon 64 3200+ CPU
ATI x800 XT PE vid
SOund blaster audigy sound card
Ultra X-Connect 500 Watt P/S ( Had Antec 430 Watt True Power BEFORE putting in Ultra X-Connect)
Kingston Hyper-X 2x512 RAM
So im using my PC like normal.. it locked up (dont know why). So i reset the system (hard reset).. as soon as i hit reset, the PC shut off. I turn off the power from the back, wait a while and turn it back on. I turn the PC back on and it turns on fine, BUT it doesnt POST. There is no response from the monitor and nothing happens. The PC seems to be running fine however there are no beep errors or anything, nothing is being displayed on the monitor. Also, it seems the TWO dvd-rw drives i have are not getting power(they didnt open when i pressed the open buttons). So i figured maybe my power supply is bad. I had a NEW Ultra X-Connect 500 Watt P/s that wasnt in use so i opened it up and put it in (took out 430 Watt Antec).. After all said and done i turned on the PC and SAME THING. No post, no beep errors, nothing.. cd roms wouldnt open still. So i tried resetting CMOS and samething. MY ram is only a few weeks old and none of the symptoms point to the ram or any other devices. I already ruled out the Power Supply. Im starting to think that MSI sent me another bad board from the RMA.. I just got it only a few weeks ago. What do you guys think?
UPDATE: I removed the IDE cable of the CD-roms that leads to the motherboard and turned on the PC. Now they have power and open and close perfectly fine.. all signs point to mobo.

So I know none of my LED's or switches need to be rotated as they have worked for weeks. Nonetheless I tried it and here is what I found out. When I took the power sw plug out and turned on the power from the back, it still turned on without me doing anything. Infact now that I think about it, everytime i have turned ont he power from the back, the computer has automaticaly turned on without me having to press the power switch.
Thus, I think the power switch thing is shorted and it is always trying to give it the first bit of power. I think the motherboard keeps thinking like it is just being turned on and that is why it is not working. RMA time, unless anyone has got anything else.

TS1702 how can I remove large number of photos on my iPhone 4s from iTunes using a PC - Lenovo Think Pad - so that I can reduce the space used on the phone by 50%?

You don't need iTunes for that. Simply connect the iPhone to the PC where it will be recognized as a camera. You can then select the photos you wish to transfer, transfer them, and delete them.

Lenovo think pad S230u Black screen with mouse pointer after log in

Hello I dont know if i am on the right board for this but this is the first time i am posting on here. I have a Lenovo think pad S230u. Recently it will load up to the screen where you put in your password and let you put it in your password but then just loads to a all black screen with just a mouse pointer on it thats it. I read on line that some other thinkpads had this issue with a display driver but i couldnt find anything on the one i have. The one i have is running windows 8. Any help is greatly appericated.

Hi Lsaacw,

Water Spill- think pad twist

Hello All, I accidently spilled a little (maybe a 1/4 cup) into my think pad twist. The water quickly drained out the sides. After it dried, i turned it on, and the screen flickered and distorted, but evenutally i got an "installing windows updates" screen, which then flcikered and the machine turned off. Help! Any suggestions? My understanding is that the keyboard is spill resistent, so maybe it;s not that bad? thanks!

How come I can't connect to my wifi on my iPad? My other think pads are connecting. I reset all my settings and nothing. We have a jet pack and I can connect to that?

I can't connect to our wifi. All our other think pads are connected. We have a jet pack and am able to connect...but why not our two think pads? I reset my settings and still doesn't work? Thx

Try rebooting the router. Whether or not it is working with other devices does not matter.

4 Beeps error?

Hello all I need some help with my Laptop which sometimes randomly shuts down and then when I try turning it back on gives me a 4 beep error code which I understand to be some type of RAM failure. It happens at random and I want to fix it because I game a lot on the laptop and it gets annoying when it randomly shuts off. I have tried reinstalling the RAM and nothing has fixed it. This error doesn't happen at startup like on other posts but at random when I'm on the laptop. The laptop has 8 GB and a good processor and graphics card so I don't understand why this is happening. I recently updated some drivers because I thought that may be the issue but the only thing that fixed was the bsod's I was getting. Please help and I'm wondering if I need to buy new Ram

Hi BaZuKa_RulZ,
Appreciate the step where you tried reseating the memory to resolve the issue.
I recommend you to run diagnostics on the hardware components of the system. To run diagnostics restart the system and at the Dell logo tap the F12 key every two seconds. This will start the One-time boot menu. Using arrow keys select ‘Diagnostics’ and hit enter. This will run diagnostics on the hardware components of the system which may take around 5 minutes. Please reply to this post in case of any error message.
Also provide the system model.

Vista 32bit on my think pad

Hello everyone, I just boight a T61 think pad with 4gb of memory everythink is perfect,
I have a Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit OEM delivred with my laptop, I wanted to know if there is any chance that lenovo changes it for 64 bit OS, if it is possible who should I contact?
I tried to look for this service with Microsoft, but they offer it only for retail buyers
Thanks for repling guys.
Moez

Audio: Realtek or Cirrus. WE have to manually find, download and install latest driver.
RealTek is usually easy and their Vista/7 32-bit will install or there is a zipped driver and use Device Manager after unzip to "update driver."
Same for GPU drivers too.
So we are on our own,the base drivers enable the device chip but that is all.
The list of unsupported usually means 64-bit will be more difficult and extra steps is all.

Think Pad yoga 15

Having ordered a think pad yoga on the 21st of January it said usually ships in 3 days (that now say 13 days)   3 weeks have elapsed and my order still says “order in process”
I have read that lead times can be affected be 1 week occasionally if there is a” part on back order” however that 2 + 1 lead has gone and my machine is still in China. Having spoken to a nice guy at customer services he says that they can’t get this product yet and does not know when they will be able to, its still selling it online in the uk though..
Does anybody have the same issue or has any one got this machine yet? i cant find any reviews online alough its been avalible for 4 weeks..
If any one could any put some light on the issue it would be appreciated
Thanks

HI,   No change for me I’m really hoping that they don’t contact me on the 9th march to tell me it’s been delayed againl, I will finally snap if they do.
You can’t find a review anywhere of this machine so i don’t think anyone has one yet, i also question the honesty of either digital river or Lenovo as i suspect the machine was never going to be ready back in Jan /Feb Maybe they just want to take orders and don’t give long lead times that will discourage people? Do we think they did not know chineese new year was coming !   that must have been factored in just think of the size of the company and the logistics of a factory the size of town..
You will see the lead time of the web site went up and then kept going down and has now stabilized but i have suspicion they always knew it was going to be almost April before these went out. Iv a friend who runs an IT business and his suppler said the new Lenovo stuff won’t be in until April...
I’ll be Curious as to what compensation you are offered so private message me and I’ll do the same, What country are you ordering from BTW ?
untill then iv got my fingers crossed for the 9th as a ship date.
