Thinkpad X21 Power

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

I'm having problems with a new (used) X21. The screen blinks when
I charge the battery. I'm using a 56W powersupply with this notebook,
but the specs call for the 72W pwersupply, both are 16V with different
current ratings. Is this particular model picky about the power
supply ? I have not seen this with other models, i.e. (560,560E,560Z,
X30,...). I would be interesting to know if the blinking screen is
a symptom of having too small of a power supply.

Thanks, -ingo
