FadikkopTL;DR: Hat hier jemand Erfahrung im Erneuern vom Bildschirm eines ThinkPads?Ich hab' am Montag meinen Laptop (t470s) auf Asphalt fallen lassen und seit dem Flackert sein Bildschirm (wird alle paar Sekunden kurz schwarz oder zeigt ein nach unten verschobenes Bild). Dummerweise hatte ich einen Tag davor an einem Externen Monitor ein anderes System installiert, was mir erst die Hoffnung gab, es könnte ein Software-Problem sein. Ich hab' nur ihn und auch wenn ich meistens mit externem Bildschirm arbeite, tut es schon weh, ihm dabei zuzusehen und scheinbar nichts mit Software lösen zu können, jedenfalls tut er das auch im BIOS und in grub. Wenn mich jemand eines besseren belehren will, einen Funken Hoffnung hab' ich noch und ansonsten: Hat hier jemand Erfahrungen im Wechseln vom Bildschirm eines ThinkPads?<a href="https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/tags/askfedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#askfedi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/tags/thinkpad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thinkpad</a> <a href="https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/tags/thinkpads" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thinkpads</a> <a href="https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/tags/hardware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hardware</a> <a href="https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linux</a>

IrishMASMSPart 2/3 Though this has a 64-bit processor, let me try the Win10 x86 32-bit LTSP installer from 2019: and it worked! The install went fine, but it ran dog slow. I used the native browser to download and then upgraded the <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/BIOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BIOS</a> to the latest for the W510 and everything was noticeably slow. Unfortunately, most of the tools I want to use are 64-bit so this version of Win10 is not really an option. To test & try to troubleshoot, I installed the latest version of <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Debian</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a>. The install went fine, and the user experience was much better than the 32-bit Win10 – no real noticeable slowness. Ok, Linux is an option – but not what I had planned for this laptop. Let me wipe the drive (getting rid of <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/GRUB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GRUB</a>) and retry installing Win11 or Win10 LTSP. Now when I boot with either Win11 or Win10 LTSP <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/USBs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USBs</a> the windows logo flashes and the dreaded black screen with blinking cursor appears. We don’t even get the option to install…. (Ugh!)
