Wat je nodig hebt

  1. IBM ThinkPad T41 CPU Replacement, Keyboard: stap 1, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Close the screen and turn the closed laptop over.

    • Remove all 17 screws on the bottom of the computer.

    • The multiple colors (turquoise, red, blue, orange, yellow, and purple) are for organizational purposes, indicating different screws.

    • The yellow marker at the rear denotes the UltraBay device retaining screw. This screw is optional as the UltraBay mechanism will hold the drive or battery in place anyway. The yellow marker at the front denotes the hard disk caddy retaining screw.

    You need to remove the battery, hard drive, and UltraDrive before starting step 1.

    • Remove the three screws on the fan.

    • Lift the fan out.

    During removing cooler, you must maybe use a heat gun (or Hair dryer) directet on GPU part of cooler. By me, cooler was burnt on GPU and with heating of this part it goes better.

    why do you need to remove the CPU chip, the RAM and wireless card? Seems to me those could stay there.....

Één opmerking

The disassembly of the machine goes way too far. Due to my experience it’s enough to remove keyboard, palm rest/ touchpad unit (only unscrew it and set a bit aside from fan) and fan (there are different versions, long/ short). Then you can exchange/ replace the CPU an reassamble all the stuff. This shortens the time needed to about 10 to 15 minutes. Don’t forget to add some thermal compound to assure heat flow between CPU and fan. I needed to replace a Banias with a Dothan CPU to have the NX CPU flag available. NX is a prereq for Windows 10.
