CF-18 FAQ

I have talked to Alex about a new updated CF-18 thread a while back but just never got it done. We discussed this replacing the partial FAQ we currently have for the CF-18. I still don’t have all the pictures done like on the factory GPS install but I need to quit stalling and get it posted up, then just add pictures up later. This will be a work in progress and I will add the info to the first post to keep it clean. Besides I have a lot of time on my hands...

Some questions, which are the best Panasonic ToughBook business tough models to consider in 14" and under screen sizes used? I love my CF-30 Mk II full rugged so much, that I want a business tough in my fleet. Would prefer Intel Core I processors and good used suggestions. My old ThinkPad died. Audio issues. And motherboard replacement.

Hi guys

I have had a look through the threads and cant find anything that matches my problem.

I have a toughbook C19 (centrino model) running windows xp. I recently lost my power charger so the battery fully ran down before I got a new power supply. I double checked the power supply voltage and amperage before connecting it and its the correct voltage and amperage.

I had an amber charge light for a while so I let it charge for a few hours and now have a green battery light but now when...

Toughbook CF-30 CCFL Backlight Failure

Hi all. Hope you are all well. A few days ago I noticed a flickering of the backlight on my CF-30 Mk3 which progressively got worse until today when the backlight failed. If I turn the laptop off and on it will run for a bit but then drops out completely again.

I'm presuming this is the inverter that is on the blink - given that it is a failure from both sides of the display. The CCFL tubes are quite yellowed and if the numbers are correct the laptop has run up around 30,000 hours -...

Hi. I've been trying to get linux working on my cf-29 mk4. My machine has celeron m 1.6ghz, 1.5gb ram, a touchscreen (totally dead) and intel 2915bg wifi. I currently have a 40gb hard disk in it which I swapped from my cf-18. The issue is, as the title says, the halt on suspend issue. I have been searching on and off for a few years how to solve this issue but I have found only 1 other cf-29 owner with the same issue but was unable to contact him. My googling and my own experience (cf-w7 i...

OK, So who has W10 running on a toughbook?

Title says it all. I'm hesitant as W7 runs so well on my MK2 (not so well on the MK1 though). But W10 is the future for sure.

I'm an idiot, title does not say it all. CF-52 -

Long time no hear boys!

I wanted to get your honest (brutal if necessary) feedback on my first YouTube video..

Hi, I've searched for days for a clue and come up nowhere with this:

Summary: CF-53 SATA controller seems limited to SATA 2 speeds for any drive in primary drive bay.

I have a Toughbook CF-53 (model CF-53STLZYLM) which is a Mk3 unit with i5-3340M CPU and Intel QM77 chipset, which should be capable of SATA 3 (6Gb/s) speed.) SATA 3 SSD installed is only running at SATA 2 (3Gb/s) speeds.

Using HWiNFO for full hardware report, it indicates motherboard PCH features SATA 6 Gb/s supported...

I know this isn't a mod question but I could sure use the help. Just picked up a nice CF-31JEGAF1M with 7,800 hrs on it and Heartland sent me the image backup disk to load the factory settings. Install was a dream, Windows 7 Professional loaded without a hickup, but I went to Windows Update and got the dreaded "Check for Windows updates" outlined in red instead of green. The first time I ran Check for updates I got Error code: 8007000E. Checking online I found all kinds of possible...

Toughbook Port Covers, 3D Printing and YOU!

IBM ThinkPad enthusiasts noted that 3D printing, which seems to be gaining traction, could be the solution to their old laptops' crumbling and/or otherwise broken parts, which are expensive to repair. Right now both of my Toughbooks have issues with port covers and even if buying from eBay were an option, that place is still filled with non-OEM port covers, some (most?) of which aren't waterproof, which essentially defeats the...

As requested I am moving this thread here. Their have been a lot of new questions asked about 19's here lately and their will be lots more on the way as the prices of 19's are way down making they a good starter/first toughbook. This thread still isn't finished. I like to base my work on physically having the machine. If you have seen and liked my CF-18 thread that was done while I still had all 5 marks of the CF-18. Digitizers and touchscreens. Right now I have Mk1,2,3 so that is why they...

CF 31 mk3 Construction site edition

I was going to do my CF 31 in black, but the paint job just went wrong every time I tried.
So I made a construction site edition instead.
The paint looks just like the safety neon yellow/ green. Trimming it in black really makes it stand out. I left the front bezel silver for now. I may do it in the yellow/green also. I need to visualize it for a while.
Now I need to install the SSD and Fingerprint reader. GPS is in and working.

Thanks to Jeff and Kerry for helping to make it all happen....

Hi all. I was given a chance to upgrade my units, pulled working WWan sleds with Sierra card, GPS and BT. I already have the sled and GPS, all I want was the BT. I have installed the BT modules and tried everything I can think of? These are working pulls.

My ?s are:

In bios I don't see the word Bluetooth specifically, says wireless twice in options.
Can BT and GPS coexists?
Bluetooth stack was installed, is any other software needed?
Win 10 updates where run, also usb Bluetooth...
