Which model has the same graphics and audio as T430s?

I have a T430s running win xp and I would like to be able to take the hard drive out and use it another laptop.  The other laptop needs to have the same (or similar enough to use the same drivers) graphics (intel HD 4000?), audio etc so that it will work without windows starting the new hardware wizard each time.
Processor speed is not that important but core 2 duo is probably the minimum.  Also, the same type of easy access hard drive bay as the T430s.  
Is there anything lower down (or older) in the T series or indeed any other lenovo which fits the bill?
You may ask "why not just take the T430 with you?" but it is not always possible and a hard drive is much more portable.
Suggestions greatly appreciated.

I think going this route will create more problems then you'll solve. Windows can be very picky about changes in hardware. It might work on identically configured models of the T430s, but even then the MAC address on the network cards would be different and some components, such as DVD drives, could be different.
If you'll have internet access at both locations you can use remote desktop or another remote access program to access the other machine. If not you can purchase a SSD and a USB 3.0 Enclosure or a fast USB 3.0 thumbdrive. Then you can just run everything you need from the SSD and take the SSD in the enclosure with you. If your workload isn't processor or graphics intensive you could simply use the SSD to hold a virtual machine with everything you normally use in it. For an elegant solution, you could use a live booting Linux solution that was installed on the SSD and boot into Linux. Then run your VM from inside of Linux.

  • Recently my macbook charger died and I purchased from a third party seller a new charger that has the same amperage and voltage listed, but different model number. my question is should I be worried, or is it all right?

    So recently my model number A1184 charger for my mac book pro died and I purchased a new charger online. They sent me a different charger, a model number S165365, that has the same amperage and voltage listed. my concern is whether it is okay to swap one out for the latter?

    Is this your charger you got?

    I've been having this problem for weeks and have found no solution to it. There are lots of other people with this issue too if you look back on the boards. I even e-mailed AND called Apple and have had no luck. I tried all the suggestions they gave me and all the ones I found on here- nothing worked. I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (boy was that a pain!) and no difference.
    The weird part is that I have an old laptop that works and if I buy music with the laptop I can download it with my regular computer buy buying does not work on my regular computer. That tells me it's not a connection issue. I can't get to my account either.
    I can't figure out why an issue that has kept so many people from purchasing a product has been ignored!

  • How come after turning of iMessage on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.0.4), my contact who has the same phone and OS could not receive regular text messages from me?

    Here is what the conversation looked like. She let me know she didn't see those two messages:

    PROBLEM SOLVED by Apple Support Chat
    In order to get around this issue I had to put the phone into RECOVERY MODE, and connect it to iTunes.
    Here is the support article that tells you how to put your iPhone into RECOVERY MODE. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Connecting to iTunes in RECOVERY MODE worked even though all my iPhone backups are in iCloud not in my iTunes.
    It is NOT TRUE that you can't re-activate and recover your iPhone if your SIM is locked.
    It is NOT TRUE that you have to unlock your SIM in another phone if you are trying to re-activate your iPhone with a locked SIM.
    It is NOT TRUE that you need to get a new SIM from your carrier if you're trying to reactivate your iPhone with a locked SIM.
    All you need is a computer running iTunes, your SIM PIN, your iCloud login and password, and you need to put your iPhone into RECOVERY MODE. (See link above or click here.)

  • I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music

    Hi I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music. Home sharing is not working. How do I successfully transfer and sync the music off my ipone 4 to my mac book pro if they have different Apple IDs? Thanks!

    What do you mean the PC won't let you transfer the music? Save your entire iTunes folder (this is assuming that you have all your music stored in your iTunes folder) to an external hard drive. Connect that hard drive to your Mac. Copy the iTunes folder to your computer. Hold down the option key while launching iTunes on your Mac. Select the library you just copied when it ask you to select which library you want to open.

  • How to rename two external hdd's, that are exactly the same brand and model, in order to distinguish?

    Hello again.
    First of all excuse me if I mistype anything or fail to use some terms correctly. English is not my mother tongue and I am kind of new to MacBooks.
    Here's my problem.
    I've got a macbook pro (yosemite 10.10.1, retina, 15", late 2013, 8gb memory, 250gb ssd), and I am using an external hard drive which I found to be quite good for what I wanted (in case it matters it's the lacie porsche design 2TB USB3).
    I wanted one more external hard drive, and since I was satisfied with the one I had bought before, I decided to go for that one again.
    Now the thing is that, when I go to finder I see 2 disks with the same name (and their "share" partitions) and I don't know which is which.
    I'll try to post a screenshot that might clear things out.
    What I would like to do would be to somehow rename the second disk so it appears in the finder as (for example) Lacie1 and Lacie Share1.
    Apparently, the system kinda thinks in a similar way as I do.
    As you can see below, it has done exactly what I want to do in Lacie's manager (or however it's called), but that does not appear in finder.
    (some words are in Greek, but you'll get the point)
    So, is there any way I can do something that will make the disks appear like that in finder so I can differentiate among them?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Connect the external HDD to the MBP.  Click in the title below the icon two times.  It should then allow you to change the name.
    See this example:

  • Good afternoon, I would like some information I have an ipod nano 6th generation and has the same one-year warranty is only 2 months of use, and it fell down and broke the glass of the display, I called technical assistance in Brazil and informed me that

    Good afternoon, I would like some information I have an ipod nano 6th generation and has the same one-year warranty is only 2 months of use, and it fell down and broke the glass of the display, I called technical assistance in Brazil and informed me that Brazil has no repair services for Apple, which was the basis of its price change in the exchange is not worth half the value of the product.
    I wonder how I do to change this device without the expense of 50% for the same product is in warranty?
    Thanks in advance.

    yes agree, plus a multinational seeing a product and has no technical assistance to do the maintenance then it's no use I buy a new product if it is damaged I will always be because it has no prejudice in this maintenance.
    sorry but even more products coming from China to Brazil in technical assistance.

  • The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type.  Why does it reject some and accept others?

    The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type.  Why does it reject some and accept others?

    Hi there. I'm having the same problem: my iPad won't import some photos from a folder, saying that they can't be read. They are all JPEGS and some photos taken at the same time have synched fine, but out of a folder with 200 photos, it only lets me synch 37. I'm synching albums created via Photoshop Elements 6, which has worked fine until now.
    I've tried deleting all photos and re-synching, and have also deleted the iPod Photo Cache, but it hasn't made a difference.
    The iPad auto-updated to the latest version of iTunes, so maybe that's what's causing it?
    Any advice gratefully received!

  • Labview runs CANBus and DNP3 software model at the same time

    I have an ordinary computer which communicates with several DSPs (CANBus communiation) through Compact Rio. The physical connection is that the DSPs' CANBuses are connected together and connected into Compact Rio, then the Compact Rio is connected with a router through Ethernet, at the same time, the computer also connects with the Router through Ethernet. Based on this physical architecture, the computer can run CANBus software model on Labview to communiate with Compact Rio and DSPs.
    As I know, the communication between the computer and the Compact Rio is not real time, and the communication between Compact Rio and DSPs can be real time, can you tell me if I get the right point?
    Now we have another device named RTDS (communicate with outside through Enternet based on DNP3), and want to add RTDS into our system. I am not sure about the way to conduct the communiation. The main question is that we need to run Labview to communicate with DSPs through CANBus and RTDS through DNP3 at the same time, is that possible?
    I proposed two possible ways to conduct communication, bt not sure if it is possible.
    1. I proposed that I connect RTDS with the Router through Ethernet, and then the computer communicates with RTDS through the Router based on DNP3 and also keeps the communication with DSPs through Router, Compact Rio, CANBus and then DSPs. I am wondering if this kind of communication is available for Labview.
    2. The second possible way I proposed is that I connect the RTDS with Compat Rio (CRio keeps connecting with DSPs through CANBus) through Ethernet, and then the computer communicates with DSPs through Router, Compact Rio and CANBus, and the computer communicates with RTDS through Router, Compact Rio and Ethernet. Also, the computer needs to run Labview with CANBus sofeware model and DNP3 software model at the same time. I am also not sure if it is possible.
    The diagram of the communication system is shown in the attachments.

    To use Mail from multiple devices, your Mail Server needs to be using IMAP protocol (iCloud Mail uses that).
    IMAP keeps the Master copies on the Server, not on the Mac the way most default POP Mail servers do.
    To keep one Master Calendar, accessible from all devices, you need a web-accessible place to keep the Master Calendar. iCloud can do that.
    ¿Do you see a trend developing here?
