I had previously composed but never sent a reply to this thread, with some comments about my apparent power [supply] issue seeming similar. Now I am left wondering if some IBM ThinkPad were affected by that issue? While I find mentions in the badcaps forum, I did not encounter any model lists anywhere. I recall looking for any dust, crimps, swelling, or any other /physical/ issues, but not noticing any. I might have to go back for a new look. Would be nice to have that system back.
