Fujitsu’s latest notebook offering that we have the chance to review is the LifeBook E8410, a full sized and fully featured
notebook packing some serious power.
The E8410 sells online for around AU$2600 and when you see what you get for this price, it is excellent value. Firstly, we’ll have a look at the main specs of the E8410 we have here in our possession:
- Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7500 (2.2Ghz, 4MB Cache)
- 2GB 667Mhz DDR2 RAM (2 x 1GB modules)
- 120GB 5400rpm SATA-150 Hard Drive (split 50/50 partition) (Fujitsu MHW2120BH)
- 8-cell 5200mAh Lithium-Ion Battery (up to 4 hours battery life)
- nVidia GeForce 8400M with 128MB dedicated video RAM
- 15.4” WSXGA+ TFT Screen, 1680 x 1050pixel resolution
- Dual Layer Super Multi DVD/CD Writer
- Intel Gigabit Ethernet Port
- Intel PRO/Wireless 4965AGN 802.11a/b/g/Draft-N 54MB/s Wireless Adapter (up to 300Mbps for Draft-N)
- Bluetooth V2.0
- 1.3MegaPixel Camera Built-In, with built-in Stereo Microphones
- 84-Key Keyboard, Fingerprint Sensor, Intelligent Touch Pad
- Ports – 4 x USB2.0, Firewire, HD Audio In/Out, SD/Memory Stick Card Reader, Smart Card, PC Card Type II, ExpressCard, RJ45 (LAN), RJ11 (Modem), VGA, S-Video, 9-Pin Serial, Parallel
- 2-Year Pickup and Return Warranty, 1st Year International (1 Year on Battery and AC Adapter)
- Windows Vista Business
As you can see from the specs above the E8410 has everything you could want in a notebook, and unlike some other Fujitsu notebooks we’ve reviewed in the past, this one has all its ports and connectors built-in, no need for any dongles or docking bays. The only sacrifice you make is it’s a bit bigger than the ones we’ve looked at previously, with the E8410 weighing in at around 2.8kg with its standard battery and optical drive, so not exactly a lightweight but considering it’s screen size and features, it’s not too bad.

To solve the problem, go to the fujitsu website and download the latest video driver (instead of clearly states it as nvdia driver, fujitsu states it as video driver) under download & support.
