    Can someone help me how could I use marker for Thinkpad X61? It has TP-7N SLIC 2.0 table, but I haven't found a 7N bin in the archive. Or shell I just use a hacked BIOS from DOS flash?

    EDIT: As I read this thread more, it seems that there is no way to do a marker on X61. So my only chance is to flash a modified BIOS?

    Hi all, I'm using T61 laptop, I just downloaded T61, T61p, R61 14.1inch widescreen with IEEE 1394* I'm a bit confuse... is this the modded bios or the original unmodded bios for recovery? Thx

    Yes, that's the correct bios to flash (and you get SLIC 2.1)
    I've modded my T61 with that one, and works fine.

    Is your Notebook a widescreen notebook? Then it's the right one for you as well.

    It's the file you download by clicking the link you pointed out in your first post.

    7luj25us_TC-5M_SLIC21.rar

    You should decompress the file and the modded bios is inside.
    Execute Winphlash.exe and flash your bios

    Yes, keep reading, its worth the effort

    To install from flash drive, format it as NTFS, uncompress the whole Win 7 ISO in the pen drive, execute p:\boot\bootsect /nt60 /mbr P:
    (where p: is your pen drive letter)

    That makes your pen drive bootable. Restart your T61, Hit F12 and boot from the pen drive.
