Hi, does anyone have a utilitydisk and PCMCIA disk for the thinkpad 701c?

I tried google and a few ftpsearches, but I've not been able to find it.

It is those two files mentioned in 701_tips.txt:

PXTPX130.EXE PCMCIA Drivers 1.30 07-24-95
UT701111.EXE Utility Disk (ThinkPad Utility Programs) 1.1.16 05-09-95

Aren't you looking for the wrong filename?

If so, it's on the site one post above here:

http://greyghost.dyndns.org/pccbbs/

which should lead you here:

I didn't find the utility file

pctpx130.txt whic says in part:

Yep! You must be right about that - that of course directs my attention to whether the filename of the utilitydisk i spelled correctly - but I have no reason to think otherwise

Thanks for the correction!

I actually don't know what's on the utilitydisk, as I don't have it, so I don't know whether it is of any use.

been there, done that....

Pale Moon can't find the server at ftp.pcco.ibm.com.

those links are not that guys own... they point to dead site(s)

If there is one thing on the planet I consider myself a master of, it is googling... I an now oping someone has it tucked away on a floppy or in a backup somewhere.

I may have one in my version of what dear departed brainpicker described as "the closet from h**l". I'll look tonight.

Ahh, a fellow packrat... I was able to dig out floppies of all the original 3rd party software that came with the 701C's... Never owned one, but had the floppies from my days a a computer tech

P.S. YAY, just won a "non working" 701C on eBay for $20 free shipping... my current working one was "non working" when i bought it too
