Sold a friend a T41, he said he changed a setting on the laptop. He does not remember what setting or what he changed. Now he is not able to open the My Documents folder on the desktop. Error message says you do not have sufficient security permission to open this folder, or something to that affect. He then set up a separate My Documents short cut folder which allows him to open the folder. Strange issue.

I had this T41 for 4 years. The only thing I've changed is an additional 512MB memory which was installed 3 yrs ago and hasn't brought any problems. All the other parts are untouched. The keyboard did get tortured by a few times of coffee spilling, but it survived. Recently my T41 had start to halt (being unresponsive to keyboard and track point actions) during running Windows XP, and then got back to normal. Starting from last week, it won't start and halted at the BIOS start screen. Then in the rare case it did get through, it would halt often while running Windows. I suspect it is due to the keyboard and the track point, but not sure. Could anyone give me any suggestions how to solve it? Thank you very much.

Anytime I try to use a USB 2 device, my Windows XP system shuts down. I took it into a good, local repair shop who attempted to get around the problem by using the card port to insert a dual USB 2 card. This did not work either. After keeping the laptop for over a week during which they claimed to have checked all the drivers and other features, they concluded that it was a problem with the motherboard and I should get a new laptop. Apparently I am not alone on this problem. What is IBM Lenovo doing to address this problem.
