T41 Lids/LCDs cross-compatible with?

#1 Post by solidpro » Wed Feb 02, 2022 7:52 am

Hi

I've got 4 complete 'lids' with LCD screens and cables, which I have tested on a T41.

Can anyone tell me if these lids are cross comptable with other T4x models?

Thanks

Alex

Yes, they are a physical fit for all T4x models of the same size, but models with Intel graphics cannot drive some of the high rez displays, as I recall. It's been a while since I've worked with these ThinkPads.

If you are talking about everything 14.1", then T41 is compatible with every 14.1" panel from T4x and T6x series, however you MUST have the cable matching the resolution, or modify the cable's jumpers for that. See my cable mod thread for that, which is much easier for 14.1" models than 15".
Additionally, I do believe SXGA+ T41 is also compatible with T2x SXGA+ LCD's, as those also use the standard 30 pin connection. T30 is special and is interchangeable with NOTHING, as the connector is proprietary.
On a T41 you don't have to worry about the Intel GPU systems, as such a system does not exist for T41.
