hey guys, just got my R60 (the one without an OS)
installed my own win xp and i was given a drivers CD by my dealer
so i installed everything on drivers CD but i have 2 probs

1. i can't seem to get the ThinkVantage button to work ?
2. surfing seems to be slow , tried reinstalling the drivers for the ethernet card thingy , but still connection via streamyx is sorta slow esp downloading

anyone could give me some pointers plz . thanks a lot !

alrite thanks ! got it working already.

hey guys , wanna ask those who owns a R60
not sure whether is this a quality issue but my keyboard at the ESC key corner isn't as "solid" as i thought it would be.

I've pressed down on these areas and they sort of "sunk" down a lil' as shown by the pics below. I've tried my hands on the T60 and they do not "sink" and are quite solid/hard when pressed at these areas. But maybe its becuz the T60 is made of a different material.

Beside Thinkvantage button before and after


Beside Fn key

Is there suppose to be a bump here ? cuz at the other end (near the arrow keys) its quite smooth.


So i just wanna know whether is this the same for other R60s ?

Thanks !
