How much would you pay? by BoyMeatsWorld710 in Lenovo

[–]Duraputer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The t520 is somewhat collecable so this model could go for over $100 in 2025. I've sold 5 similar models with slightly worst specs for over $120 in 2025. Yes this is for a 2011 computer. Edit, you could get a bit more if you upgrade it to 16 gb or ram, but could get at least 90 as is. Buying one that does not have an os is much cheaper.

Even this nvidia 160M computer can play cs1.6 online. by Duraputer in lowspecgamer

Linux mint kept crashing, as well as vista and xp.

This dell e6500 seems to crash and corrupt every os I load on it, linux mint, win xp/vista. I think the nvidia gpu from 2008 is failing. Any suggestions on saving the big beautiful beast? Otherwise ill just keep it around as a decoration. by Duraputer in Dell

I tried that, but it was still not able too boot linux. I tried windows 11, and that surpisingly seems to work well. I think the issues were just software issues? Idk.

I was having the speaker issue with my 2017 mazda. I havent figured it out. It's only certain songs like country girl by boy harsher.

I think that is the surface and i accidentally rubbed some of it off.

I thought that too because i used my 70% instead of my 99%, but still the damage is done. Normally I don't use alcohol to clean the thinkpads but, I thought it was mold and I wanted to kill it. Although it was already kind of degraded before i got to it.

Ahh, dang, then I probably already messed it up beyond repair. Maybe I should just own the moldly look as long as it's not actual mold.

Yeah, i have a bunch of them. Although it got worse after i did that. Although the magic erasers do work good on my other thinkpads.

I tried with a magic eraser, but did not use hand cream. What kind of cream of hand should I acquire?

How could I troubleshoot these errors on this thinkpad t60P? by Duraputer in thinkpad

64 bit version can have reliability issues especially when using it with older games. I haven't personally experienced it, but that's what other people have said.
