Windows 7 preload for T61

#1 Post by Utwig » Mon Mar 15, 2010 6:26 pm

Are there Windows 7 preloads for T61? I can installed licenced copy, but generally I like Lenovo preloads as a start.

Does anyone know if there are Windows 7 preload DVDs for T61 and what one needs to do to get them?
T540p, T420s (soon to be T420ps :) ), X61t, T60p, T42p, A21p

No.

Since they never shipped with Windows 7, there are no Windows 7 factory images for any x6x Thinkpad model.

A retail copy of Windows 7 will install OK on a T61, then you can run the ThinkVantage System Update utility, version 4, to download any necessary Lenovo specific drivers and utilities.

Cheers,

Bill B.
