Wanted - recovery cd's - T23 WinXP Pro and A21 WinXP Home

#1 Post by smchan » Sat Oct 28, 2006 7:53 pm

I need recovery discs for 2 machines: a T23 that originally had WinXP Pro, and an A21 that originally had WinXP Home.

I called Lenovo earlier and they want $40 + shipping for each recovery CD. Any pointer to a less expensive source is sincerely appreciated.

I would like the answer to that to also tried IBM here in Denmark wanted over the equivelent of 50 us dollars for the recovery discs.
I have T23 2647 BG9 which i picked up at a police auktion took a risk was sold as dead and paid the equivelent of 20 us dollars for it. When i got home tried it out and got the defect ram beeps stuck a new stick in and it booted up,but only to the padlock symbol.After a bit of research and some very careful soldering i now how a fully functional T23 how great is that for 20 dollars.But now i would like to have the original restore partition back it has a xp pro license sticker on the top so if someone could tell me where i could get a set of restore discs cheaper than IBM i would be most grateful.

No problem on the language. Are you looking for English or Danish CDs?
