Re: thinkvantage system update error thinkpad t41

Hi scottiecargo, welcome to the forum,

 

hate to disappoint you, but server OSes were never supported in SystemUpdate and neither IBM or Lenovo ever released drivers for server OSes for any ThinkPads.

 

I know some people have installed server OSes on ThinkPads, searching here and at http://forum.thinkpads.com/ might produce some driver ideas for you.

 

Good luck

Andy
