You can order a set of recovery CDs from Lenovo or ebay. Maybe you could download it from emule.

Thanks ryengineer!

When I find on eBay.com, I didn't found this item.

Is this an original LENOVO recovery?

No the link above is NOT the original IBM recovery disk, and most likely will not restore the partition. This disk does NOT include windows XP! This is simply a driver disk.

Is it true? :P

OK, I will contact my local LENOVO support.

But, if they sells it expensive, can you make a copy from yours?
I can pay for it...

I contacted today by phone with the local IBM/Lenovo service support and they told me:

"We don't selling/giving recovery CDs, but if your T60 is in warranty, you can take it to our service and we can restore the original recovery partition."

My original XP langauge was German, cause my T60 came from Switzerland, but I'd like to use XP with English...

No way :(

They told me more:
"You can ask from somebody who has a T60 English so makes a recovery disks from his partition..."

This will be the best...
Could anyone helps me?
