    Hi,
    I am investigating the x60.

    It has 3 types:
    type 6xxx - 7JET30WW - (bios)1.15
    type 1xxx - 7BETD8WW - (bios)2.19
    type 2xxx - 7BETD8WW - (bios)2.19

    There are two bios version.

    I have a x60 type 6363.

    Does anyone know why there are two different types and if it possible to flash 7BETD8WW on a type 6363.

    ThinkPad X60

    7JET30WW - (bios)1.15,(ECP ID)1.04 type 6363
    7BETD8WW - (bios)2.19,(ECP ID)1.13 type 1706
    7BETD8WW - (bios)2.19,(ECP ID)1.13 type 2509
    7BETD8WW - (bios)2.19,(ECP ID)1.13 type 1702

    BIOS: 7BETD8WW

    Type 6xxx is the tablet version, which takes BIOS 1.15. The non-tablet versions take BIOS 2.19.
