lenovo laptop help from the list
My boss has a son in Arlington, VA who needs help with a T60 that is out of warrantee. He thinks it just needs a fan and wants to be careful where he takes it. I am in Tulsa, Ok and have no connections there. Anyone know of a person or place to recommend there? any help greatly appreciated.

RE: lenovo laptop help from the list
While I've never used their service dept, MicroCenter here in the DC/VA/MD area is probably the best store type of place for computer gear... far better than Best buy, etc... It's almost an East Coast version of Fry's (albeit far smaller). They have a repair counter. There's one in Fairfax, which isn't too far from him. -sc From: Jeff Brown [mailto:2jbr...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, March 26, 2010 9:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: lenovo laptop help from the list My boss has a son in Arlington, VA who needs help with a T60 that is out of warrantee.

RE: lenovo laptop help from the list
I've had my T61 apart a few times to fix various things and I am by no means a hardware guru. If he's OK with it, have him order the fan and do it himself. It's gonna be much cheaper. Google it to see what's involved, but don't think it's going to be that difficult. Don Guyer Systems Engineer - Information Services Prudential, Fox Roach/Trident Group 431 W.

Re: lenovo laptop help from the list
He isn't technical at all, not all that sure it is the fan, definitely needs to hand it to someone who has a clue. Thanks.

Re: lenovo laptop help from the list
+1 on that. You can download the hardware maintenance manual from the Lenovo support site and probably find a fan on eBay. I replaced wireless card in my T40 that way, no big deal. (Also did the keyboard on my daughter's Gateway laptop in the same manner - get hardware manual, order keyboard, yadda , yadda) At least get the hardware maintenance manual (freebie) and look it over. If it looks too daunting, take it somewhere..

RE: lenovo laptop help from the list
I missed the part about him being the bosses son. They can prolly afford to drop it off somewhere. J Don Guyer Systems Engineer - Information Services Prudential, Fox Roach/Trident Group 431 W.

RE: lenovo laptop help from the list
I caught the part about having a clue. That usually precludes the boss and his son.
