Could anyone send me the recovery/install discs for a t22

#1 Post by glassgloss » Sun Aug 20, 2006 2:45 pm

I recently completely wiped my hd and installed and partitioned for ubuntu linux. Now I want to dual-boot both windows and linux as I screwed up my linux and need to reinstall anyway.

So if somone would like to send me the discs, if that is what I need, to reinstall windows, I would appreciate it. I have heard people will do this on this forum, and when I send the discs back I can throw you a 5spot to cover your shipping and whatnot.

Thanks!

ps I am using a thinkpad t22 so I think i need windows 98, 2000, or xp. Is that right?

There should be a COA sticker on the bottom that will tell you the correct OS.

the coa sticker says windows 98 second edition but then there is another sticker that says 2000 professional and that is what was installed last

I don't have the recovery CDs for T22 but it sounds like the Win98SE discs are what you are supposed to get.

you should post this in the marketplace as it's something you're looking to buy. update your profile to include location so people know where they'd be sending them.
