    Big "Thank u" to Rob and greetings to April :)

    First step was to create an 32bit and an 64bit RecoveryDVD and to copy the util folder to an other storage
    Second was to install an SSD with 64bitWin7
    Nxt is to add 4GB and WWAN :)

    It's pretty fast:
    CPU 7.1
    RAM 7.2
    Aero 6.9
    Games 6.9
    HDD 7.8

    Yes, of course. :)
    But I found one negative point: the brightness of the screen. On my CF-52MK3 I had to click 7 times Fn+F1 to get the same brightness as the CF52-MK4 has with full brightness...

    Because of the post before: today I exchanged the CCFL into an XB-LED-KIT XB80333LED5420+MS202CN from LCDparts ( XB LED Kit|LCDPARTS.net ). Now the screen is really bright!!!

    Can you still adjust the brightness of the screen using the FN F1/FN F2 key combinations?

    Yes, of course. But only in 11 steps until it is off. At the moment this is enough [​IMG]
    Nice thing is, the connector from the CCFL-Inverter fit exactly in to the new inverter for the LEDs without any soldering etc.

    This is interesting! Thanks for the info!

    I'm glad that you have torn your nice CF-52 apart and made it even better!!! :)
