kojack Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 It's time to break out the old iron and see what I can make out of it. It needs some work, but it will be worth it to keep this beastly classic running for another number of years. I will be putting in a new keyboard, the current one is shot. Adding 8gb of ram instead of 4, upgrading from the t7300 processor to the t9300 processor. I will also be putting in a 256gb Kingston ssd and removing the old OCZ 120gb drive and keeping the 750gb storage drive. I have already upgraded the Bluetooth card and it works as intended as well. After it's done, I am going to try Zorin OS on it to see what I can do with it! 1 Workstation - Dell XPS 8940 - desktop creative powerhouse Mobile Workstation - Dell inspiron 5406 2 in 1 - mobile creative beast Wifey's Notebook - Dell inspiron 3169 - Little gem for our businesses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kojack Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share Posted December 27, 2022 If anyone can find the old thread in the NBRChive regarding the full build of the 7720 where the guy swapped in the 1920x1080 screen and black keyboard for it I would love to get the part number for the screen. I would not begin to figure out which panel to use in the system.
