Yeah, its worth it trying a replacement for the battery. If you are handy with clips and such, you have use a battery that doesn't fit, for testing purposes.
Looking in google products I see x60s motherboard from $120 to $385 http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=x60s+motherboard&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=1912&bih=984&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=10568058485643177690&sa=X&ei=dNrzTZi2HsTgiAK6so2KBw&ved=0CDkQ8wIwAw On ebay there are several in the $200 class, including one for $49 that is a victim of a spill in the keyboard, so some careful cleaning might give you a new system board for not too much. Ah, you are in Spain? Getting stuff from here (usa) might be a pain for you. I have little idea what its like in Europe for for parts these days. --STeve Andre' On 06/11/11 17:11, [email protected] wrote:
I'd still replace the CMOS battery first and see whether I get anywhere after that... Good luck.

I turn it off and tried to reboot but now it only shows the IBM first greeting page but does not boot, neither Windows XP nor Ubuntu. I can' t boot from a Linux installation CD neither. screen says should use F1 when I do I see the following Errors: Errir 0271 Check date and time set IRQ not configured PCI Display on MB Bus 00 Device 02 Function 00 IRQ not configured PCI Serial bus controller Bus 00 Device 1D Function 07 IRQ not configured PCI Serial bus controller Bus 15 Device 00 Function 01 IRQ not configured PCI Serial bus controller Bus 00 Device 1F Function 03 I shall press then f2 in order to enter BIOS values but I am asked a password which I don't know. If the crash had not happened I would say it is the BIOS battery, but it looks like a serious MS break. Anybody has an idea or could give me advice? thanks and regards Uwe Brauer _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad _______________________________________________ Thinkpad mailing list [email protected] http://stderr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/thinkpad
