Ibm thinkpad r40 audio driver for windows 7




Hi :)

I seriously doubt that will work as his thinkpad was made by IBM not Lenovo...and its extremely ancient to say the least :)

All the best Brett :)
 
ibm is now in alliance with lenovo

so support for ibm thinkpad series can be found on lenovo website

quoted from lenovo website

"ThinkVantage System Update is supported on the following systems:

Lenovo 3000 C100, C200, N100, N200, V100, V200 notebook computers
Lenovo 3000 J100, J105, J110, J115, J200, J200p, J205, S200, S200p, S205 desktop computers
All ThinkPad computers
All ThinkCentre desktop computers
All ThinkStation desktop computers
Lenovo V/B/K/E Series"

clearly says all thinkpad computers


it should find all the drivers for windows 7 with the possible exception of the video driver

if you have a better suggestion for the OP please give them one rather than criticise my suggestion



 


Hi :)

Umm sorry to be blunt but you dont know much about Thinkpads... we recondition them (T series) for various companies who still use them, mainly in the aircraft maintenance field....

The R SERIES was PRE T series, and as there are no T series drivers for 7 , I seriously doubt that 4 generations before (R series) there will be....


All the best Brett :)

 
notice you said we recondition them ,not i recondition them

obviously your employees know more about it than you do

got a pile of t40,t42 and t43 here and repair them and sell them on ebay so actually do know something about them

and have tried loading windows 7 on them just out of interest and they work fine with the exception of needing a

modified video driver

i notice a lot of your posts tend to be disparaging rather than helpfull

though the idea of this forum was to help people

so why not let the OP try and see if it works and then they can say if it helped or not
