Need 64 Bit Vista Business Restore Disks
Posted: Mon May 18, 2009 8:15 pm
My T400 came with 32 Bit OS and while Microsoft was happy to send me a 64 Bit install DVD, NOTHING I try allows me to use the discreet graphics in my T400. Switchable graphics work great with the 32 bit factory load, but after trying every possible install order of the drivers on Lenovo's site I still am stuck with integrated only when I clean install Vista business 64 (or Win 7 RC for that matter).
I really want to be 64 bit, but I also need access to my discreet graphics.
Is anyone willing to burn a copy of their 64 bit vista business restore disks? I'll be happy to swap my 32 bit disks or pay for your trouble. Lenovo will only send 32 bit disks for a machine that came with 32 bit OS, even though the license is for Vista Business (not limited to 32 or 64 bit).
I didn't anticipate so much trouble, but Lenovo's removal of the Software Update tool has turned OS install into a nightmare and I am all out of patience.
