  1. Hi David,
    I’m using a lenovo thinkpad 2 tablet. Just few days back I accidently damaged my tablets screen. The warranty period has expired and when i contacted Lenovo service center, they asked for very high fee(nearly one third of tablet’s price). Now i have 2 queries for you:
    1. Can you provide a tutorial on how to change lenovo thinkpad 2 LCD Display Panel and Touch Screen.
    2. Can you tell me an online source from where i can buy lenovo thinkpad 2 LCD Display Panel and Touch Screen.

    Thanks

  2. Hi Everyone,

    I need critical help!
    I got the LTE version of ThinkPad 2 (64Gb, 32 bit) from another seller. It appears that he or she attempted to upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 10. It was apparently unsuccessful. I have been trying to install a fresh copy of either Windows 8 or Windows 10 from USB. I was able to make a UEFI bootable USB and also image the Windows 8.1 ISO into it. I successfully booted and went thru the first couple of screens and came to screen that displays the hard drive and partition configuration.But every drive and partition, there is a message displayed “Windows can’t be installed on drive 0 partition n (” and clicking on it shows a dialog box with “We couldn’t install Windows in the location you chose. Please check your media drive. Here’s more info about what happened 0x80300001”. I deleted all partitions and created new ones and formatted them. But it still shows the 0x80300001.

    I understand TPT2 has an eeprom hard disk. How and where can I get the drivers for this eeprom SSD HDD? I am in quite a spot ๐Ÿ™

    Thanks
