XP Install on T60 can’t find hard drive
While I know nothing is free in life, I have a question: My issue is this. I have a Thinkpad, T60. The Hard drive has been repartitioned/formatted and I am trying to load XP Pro SP2, however I keep getting “Windows is unable to a find hard drive.” I have pressed F6 to try and load sata drivers, but then it tells me I must have a floppy drive, and guess what, no floppy on this model. I figure the issue is SATA hard drive. The woman I am trying to fix this for has no factory software, or O/S disk and the Restore – Recovery part of hard drive has been wiped out. Is there a work around to get this repair back on track? I live in Raleigh, any help would be greatly appreciated. David
Loose power jack
My AC Adapter Connector (where the AC cord plugs into the computer) is loose and causes the screen to pulse, as if between battery source and AC source. I just got the Jack replaced in Dec, because it burned out. it was still loose after that and before I bought it in. I have to play around with it and pull the plug to the side so it makes connection. It doesn’t make connection when the plug is in straight. Can it be fixed?
