You need to solder the wires on the BIOS chip pins (which is found between
the RAM slots and the full-sized mPCIe slot, under the black protection
foil). These pins are very tiny and the most fragile, especially the CS (Chip
Select pin), and the GND (Ground) pin is particularly difficult to

The T400s requires soldering, and you need more experience with it than
soldering on the X200s and the X200T chips. The T400, T500 and X200 don't

I am using a 2.8 GHz cpu (T9600) on my T500. It is not a lot of difference
but it is just as much a question of curiosity and principle.
300 MHz gain (T9600 vs SP9600) doesn't seem a lot to trade for a much lighter
and thinner laptop.

Hi Tiberiu,
Can you also document (ideally with photos too) how to flash the T400S?
