So far, I've been able to just restart several times and it eventually powers on and works. I'm afraid it's going to eventually NOT power on and whenever possible I don't even cut my computer off. Does anyone know what this error code is and what I need to do to fix the problem? I am so far from knowledgeable when it comes to the internal operations of computers that I have no idea where to even begin to look for answers on my own.Thanks.Debbie I have this question too 0 Kudos Reply ajkula66 Guru Posts: 7,626 Kudos: 768 Solutions: 804 Registered: 11-23-2007 Location: USA Message 2 of 5 (4,283 Views) Re: Error Code 8611 - Thinkpad 600E Options Mark as New Bookmark Subscribe Subscribe to RSS Feed Highlight Print Email to a Friend Report Inappropriate Content 09-02-2008 04:1

On one occasion, it went into a selftest routine, and the system board showed the following faults:- "DEV 086, ERR 22, and FRU 0010", no idea what that signifies....trackpoint again?Also, like my own machine, it just sort of siezes up when half way through the Memory test.I don't know what this signifies, but my own machine seems to work OK so I'm assuming it's not terminal! EDITSince found this, viewtopic.php?f=6&t=17011&view=previous which seems to say that this (the system board reported faults) is just underlining the "error 8611"that appears
