Hello,

I have been running Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate RTW (Build 6000) on
my IBM ThinkPad T43p (2668-H7U) since it was released. Suspend does work,
although the internal USB was reported as a USB 1.1 device when I resumed.

Lenovo has started to release Microsoft Windows Vista drivers, which can be
found through the

   <http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=TPAD-MATRIX>

page on IBM/Lenovo's web site. There is also a hotfix you will want to
obtain from Microsoft, "KB929121 - IBM and Lenovo computers may take longer
to start Windows Vista than computers from other manufacturers." at

   <http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=929121>

You have to call Microsoft to request it--I did and it about ten minutes
to do.

Regards

Aryeh Goretsky
