Hello:

I was looking for Windows XP recovery media for t61p (6459 CTO, 15.4", Nvidia 570M) and reached http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site. ... 6.html#xpp
Here are the part numbers:
03W7112 replaces 46V3506 replaces 44Y2596
03W7112 seems to be the latest and I get only one hit on google, the page listed above.

Where can I get it?

Best

Call Lenovo and order it, or place an AD in the Marketplace forum for a set. We're not allowed to discuss any other sources for the discs here, but there are others. Google (thinkpad recovery).

Thanks Harryc:

I was looking for the differences between the three parts and a legitimate source for ordering. I am in India and Thinkwiki says "India, just a plain "not possible"".

Hoping to pay and download--2 weeks down the drain and would rather not wait another 2 weeks.

There is no way to download the images from a legitimate source unless you can get a member here to agree to host the .iso files. I do not know the differences in the part numbers.
