Thinkpads Forum

Hi all,

New to the forum. I am looking for a set of recovery CDs for my ThinkPad T43. I purchased the unit on eBay and I'd like to restore the complete manufacturer installation. Sadly, the recovery partition has been deleted by the seller.

I live in the UK. I am able to pay for shipping to the UK and all your fees.

I could also accept an ISO images of these CDs. Thanks

Edit: I forgot to mention that I am looking for a Windows XP SP2 CDs. Reference number is: 39K9211

R52: 1846, 1847, 1848, 1849, 1850, 1858
T43: 1871, 1872, 1873, 1874, 1875, 1876

I am able to help if anybody need an ISO images. Thanks

Edit: I also have an IBM ThinkPad R51, T42/T42p recovery CDs (from January, 2005 PN 19R9174) for type: 1829, 1830, 1831, 1836, 1840, 1841, 2373, 2374, 2378, 2379.

Now the question...

Can I use T43 recovery CDs (that are for T43: 1871, 1872, 1873, 1874, 1875, 1876) for my model 2669? TIA

Yes.

You will have to manually download the ATi graphics driver once everything is said and done, though.
