It168 shopping guide] IBM's laptops have been supported by many enthusiasts. Many beginners also want to buy IBM laptops, however, the various machine verification methods published on major websites are too cumbersome and not targeted at IBM models. This article is a quick pick-up approach tailored to the beginner users who want to buy IBM. If you want to purchase IBM Parallel Imports, pay special attention to every detail in the article. If you want to select parallel products, you can relax and pay attention to the first few parts of the article. If possible, we recommend that you print out this article to make it useful when selecting IBM machines. Note that this article is not suitable for the selection of laptops of other brands.

Because the parallel laptop arrives at the dealer through many links, the chance of a problem itself is very high. If you encounter a bad JS during the purchase, the probability of a problem is even greater. As the saying goes, how can we ensure that there will be no replacement of accessories or goods in the Process of pick-up? It is very necessary to be careful. You should carefully observe each part, especially those accessories that are convenient for upgrading, such as memory, hard disk, and optical drive, which are very easy to switch, in addition, if these accessories are replaced, IBM will not be responsible for warranty, and when there is a problem, you will not be able to say anything about them.

1) how to separate delivery and delivery

This is very necessary for those who do not know IBM, otherwise it is very likely that JavaScript will be fooled by the water, IBM goods and water goods are very easy to distinguish, you can easily see it without opening the packing box. When the packing box is not opened, check the white label on the side of the packing box. There is a series of codes such as 2662 B2C. If the last one is C, this machine is licensed, if the last digit is u, H, A, J, etc., then this machine is undoubtedly a commodity. This is the first task before opening the packing box. If there is no problem, you can open the packing box.

 
2) check the serial numbers of bios, packing box, and body

This is crucial, and it is a crucial step to ensure that the entire machine will not be replaced by a prince. The specific steps are as follows: Start the instance without plugging in the external power, press the F1 key when the IBM logo appears, and find the S/N option on the displayed page, compare it with the S/N number of the packing box to see if it is consistent. If it is consistent, you can exit the bios, turn the body into another, and find the barcode label on the back, check whether the serial number above is the same as that on the packing box. If the serial number matches, you can enter the system. Under normal circumstances, when a watermarked machine has been unpacked, it can enter the corresponding operating system. This is due to some measures taken to prevent the machine from being deducted when it passes the customs clearance from Hong Kong, in this case, click Start, select the ThinkPad utilities option in the program, and click the console program. The last page in the console also contains the S/N number, compare it with the packing box to see if it is consistent. If there are no problems with all these items, OK indicates that the machine is not a big problem as a whole. If the system has not unwrapped the package, it is very important to unpackage the package before proceeding with the above program. Do not skip this step because the system has not unwrapped the package. This is not advisable. After completing this step, you can proceed to the next step.

3) Put down the machine and check the packing list

Generally, the packing list is placed in the interlayer where the box is opened on the front. It indicates all items in the packing box, including some advertisement leaflets. Checking the packing list is an important part to prevent parts from being deducted by Js, carefully compare all the contents on the packing list with each part in the packing box. If there is no part, negotiate with Js, your machine and some parts that may be deducted by JS are: Red Riding Hood and red dot bag. In addition, IBM's notebook does not have a system recovery disk, which is somewhat different from other brands of products. After carefully comparing each item, you can put the packing box aside to view the machine.

4) battery charge times

Only IBM and Sony in the industry can directly view the battery charge times of their laptops, which provides users with a lot of convenience, in addition, it can be a good way to identify whether the machine has been used. The method for checking the number of recharges is as follows: Click Start, select the ThinkPad utilities option in the program, and select battery information, click the stutas detail page, where cycle count is the number of batteries charged. Generally, the battery charge times are between 0 and 1. If this number is exceeded, a problem may occur, generally, the number of times of charging may not exceed three times. Otherwise, there may be problems. If the number of times of charging is dozens of times, do not check it. This machine must be faulty.

 
5) query warranty date

Generally, IBM machines are provided with a one-to-three-year warranty. This is the convenience of IBM users and an important step in machine pick-up, the specific method is to ask Js for a network cable or telephone line, and then go to the following URL to renew (the goods should be sold to China), and the warranty deadline for this machine, compare with the factory date of the machine to see if there is any problem. If there is no problem, you can go offline and proceed to the next step.

 
6) Check bad points with eye-catching eyes

Bad Points have a very negative impact on the screen display effect, and the appearance of bad points is irreversible. How to ensure that your machine has no bad points should be negotiated with JS before unpacking, if there is a bad point, it is generally possible to require a replacement, but the line of goods may be somewhat different, generally the number of bad points within a certain range are within the normal range, therefore, this step is suitable for customers who purchase goods. The specific steps are as follows: if you do not have any preparation, and there is no special software for testing, you can achieve the effect of selection with the naked eye, first, delete all shortcut icons on the desktop, right-click the desktop, select Properties, select none from the background options, and then select various colors from the color in the lower right corner, the main choice is red, white, blue, black, and green. Each time you switch to a color, you can use the naked eye to check whether the screen is different from the display color. If not, you can switch to another color, until all colors are viewed. If you have prepared special software in advance, such as Nokia's screen testing program, you can directly run it for detection, with the same effect. If no bad points are found in several tests, congratulations! The screen is perfect.

 
7) Other Precautions

After the above projects are completed, you should look at some small details. For example, check whether there is a lot of dust in the air inlet of the machine, whether there is light on the keyboard, and whether there is any scratches on the shell, there are no collision marks on the corners, so there are so many appearances. If it is a light soft swap machine, you can pull out the optical drive to see if the optical drive is brand new (mainly to see if there is any fingerprint in the place of the iron board), whether the plug-in interface is very new, if there is no problem, it will be inserted into the machine, take a CD and drag the VCD playback scale back and forth to see if it is sensitive. If there is no problem, you can pay the money. Remember to ask js to issue a receipt with a seal, clearly write the serial number, saving you trouble later. In addition, you need to request an overseas invoice from Js. Generally, the invoice will be sent to you half a month after the machine is sold. If possible, open the hard disk and memory slot with a screwdriver in the JS store and check whether the two accessories have the dedicated label and Fru Number of IBM, if JS does not provide these two items to your machine, it will negotiate with him on the spot for replacement, because this indicates that the two parts have been stolen. If there is no problem with all of the above, you can take the machine away, but you do not have to perform tedious tests on USB interfaces, parallel ports, and other I/O interfaces. Generally, these components will not be faulty, if the problem arises, you can directly request the blue fast warranty service from an overseas invoice.

Compared with other brands of laptops, IBM laptops have unique advantages in selection, such as software support and Standard Rules. When selecting a notebook, as long as the author says, generally, you can buy a satisfactory IBM laptop, but I still want to remind my friends that my heart is correct and I should never be careless. OK. I wish you all the best choice of an IBM notebook without any problems.
