thinkpad t410 need some help
Posted: Mon Oct 03, 2016 5:29 pm
Hi all,
I have a thinkpad t410, it runs great, a few months ago it download win 10 and crapped out.
I put it away as i had no time to mess with it.
Well i pulled it out the other day and jumped the gun and installed win 7 ultimate. finding the drivers is a pain, i can not seem to get the lenovo site to take me to the driver page .
I then remembered i could restore the os as it came but the option is missing from the boot menu. i then installed the lenovo recovery software, i now have the option back in the boot menu. so i hit the recover option and go all the way through until i get the error, ibm product recovery function has been removed from this system.
So i have played with diskpart and can see the recovery partition is still there, so how can i force the computer to boot to that partition and restore the original os?
Thanks for any and all help
