Trackpoint on IBM Laptop 600E

Linux live cd??
do you mean the install disc,but not install it??


the laptop won't let me boot from cd, just like it won't let me go to the bios, as the 8611 error page comes up(and there is no test button)

 

creaky has got a good point on the trackpoint being worn but the error seems a bit odd when i reinstalled xp when i first got this laptop i didnt need any drivers for mine and i have got the same 600e ibm thinkpad never mind try creakys way if you want its up to you!

if you have no luck and just want to sell it as spare or repairs i might consider at a resonable price as i have fun taking things apart and repairing them as i did with mine hehe!

many thanks

so have you had any luck???
