IBM ThinkPad T30: IBM T30 won't start up

Thu, 13 Jun 2019 14:57:50 -0700

This laptop hasn't been used in a few years now but before that it was fully working. I tried to turn it on and some lights do come up but none of the fans seem to be running.

I unplugged the battery and plugged it with the charger, unplugged the cmos battery, did the 10 second reset when the battery is out but still nothing.

Does anyone know what might be the problem?

Thanks in advance

IBM ThinkPad T30: Compatible Keyboards with ThinkPad T30?

Sun, 02 Jul 2017 18:47:02 -0700

I have an IBM ThinkPad T30. Some buttons broke and the keys are missing. Some are missing membranes and some with them won't work. I want to get a new keyboard for it, but $40 seems steep for a keyboard. Could I use a Keyboard from another ThinkPad model? Some like the T23 look like they would work but I don't want to risk buying one if it doesn't work. Any Thinkpad keyboards that would work?
