| Technical information |
For the 431.8-mm (17.0-in) workstation display:
ThinkPad computers are designed, built, and tested for high quality and reliability. When used properly in standard business environments, a ThinkPad system should be a reliable computing asset for many years. Harsh environments and abuse can damage systems because they are not intended to withstand extreme temperatures, dust, shock, or other severe physical environments. Systems should not be used in unsuitable environments. For example, a ThinkPad system should not be used in nonstationary environments, such as in-vehicle installations, without additional casing or shock dissipation.
The preinstalled Microsoft® Windows Vista operating system supports the new ThinkPad W700 series mobile workstation.
Operating systems other than those preinstalled on the systems may not provide full-feature functionality. To view considerations or Service Hints and Tips by operating system, visit
Lenovo tests a large number of commonly used and available applications for compatibility with its ThinkPad systems using supporting operating systems and configurations. In general, you can expect that most vendor applications designed to run on supported operating systems and Intel-compatible system architectures should be compatible with a ThinkPad system. Some configurations, however, may not be compatible.
Lenovo does not warrant or support vendor software products, nor guarantee compatibility of those products with Lenovo systems. Refer to the applicable warranty and license terms provided by the respective vendors.
ThinkPad W700 series models featuring the Windows Vista 32- or 64-bit operating system can support up to 2.5 GB or 4 GB of addressable memory respectively.
The Active Protection System is not supported on RAID configurations.

Optional Lenovo features initially installed in a Lenovo system carry the same warranty period as the system. If installed after the initial system installation, they carry the balance of the system warranty or the optional feature warranty, whichever is greater.
If required, your service provider provides repair or exchange service depending on the type of warranty service specified for the machine. A service technician will attempt to resolve your problem over the telephone, you must follow the problem determination and resolution procedures. Scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your call and is subject to parts availability. Service levels are response time objectives and are not guaranteed. The specified level of warranty service may not be available in all worldwide locations. Additional charges may apply outside your service provider's normal service area. Contact your local service provider representative or your reseller for country- and location-specific information.
Under CRU service, your service provider will ship CRUs to you for installation by you. CRU information and replacement instructions are shipped with your product and are available from Lenovo at any time upon request. CRUs that are easily installed by you are called self-service CRUs, while optional-service CRUs may require some technical skill and tools. Installation of self-service CRUs is your responsibility. You may request that a service provider install optional-service CRUs under one of the other types of warranty service designated for your product. An optional-service offering may be available from Lenovo to have Lenovo install self-service CRUs for you. You can find a list of CRUs and their designation in the publication that is shipped with your product or at
The requirement to return a defective CRU, if any, will be specified in the materials shipped with a replacement CRU. When return is required, return instructions, a prepaid return shipping label, and a container will be included with the replacement CRU. You may be charged for the replacement CRU if your service provider does not receive the defective CRU within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement.
Under courier or depot service, your product will be repaired or exchanged at a designated service center, with shipping arranged by your service provider. You are responsible for disconnecting the product. A shipping container will be provided to you for you to return your product to a designated service center. A courier will pick up your product and deliver it to the designated service center. Following its repair or exchange, the service center will arrange the return delivery of the product to you.
This type of service is called EasyServ in the U.S. and Canada.
Call 800-426-7378 to assist with problem isolation for hardware to determine if warranty service is required. Telephone support may be subject to additional charges, even during the limited warranty period. If a hardware problem is identified, the Customer Support Center will either initiate the shipment of a CRU or arrange for a courier to pick up the system for overnight delivery (where available) to the repair location. Most repairs should be made within 48 hours after the system is received at the repair location (actual repair time may vary). Keep the original shipping carton for shipping to the repair location. If the original shipping carton is not available, the courier will deliver a shipping carton and return to pick up the system for delivery to the repair location.
IWS is available during the warranty period to customers who travel or relocate to countries where their computer is sold and serviced by a service provider authorized to perform warranty service. Eligible Lenovo computers are identified by their four-digit machine type.
You can obtain IWS through the method of service, such as CRU, depot, carry-in, or on-site, provided in the servicing country. Service method and procedures vary by country, and some service or parts may not be available in all countries.
