I've got a pair of old 360PE's and a 730T that I am trying to get running with their original operating systems. We've been able to get most things working running Windows 3.1 but don't have a copy of Windows for Pen Computing 1.0 to install. Does anyone know of a source where I might obtain a Windows for Pen Computing 1.0 on floppies or as an archive. Also I am wondering if there is a Wacom driver for Win 3.1 that I could install these machines that would let the stylus act as a mouse within applications.

Thanks for any help!

No replies on this??? I'm still looking for some help.

I did find Windows for Pen Computing 1.0 on this site... http://www.abandonzone.co.uk/index.php

But now still lack a pen aware video driver to work on the 360PE.
Perhaps something that someone can share from a working machine?

Also ideally I'd like to find an archive of the Recovery disks that originally shipped with one of these machines.
Any ideas????

I've noticed that the 730T has a file called IBM730T.DRV and that the 360PE doesn't have anything similar. Since the pen works in WIN3.1 on the 730T I'm wondering if the missing system component on the 360PE is something with a name like IBM360PE.DRV ???? A driver for machine specific features of some sort?

Does anyone have a pen working in Windows 3.1 on a 360PE or 360P where they could take look for a file like this?

- discovered today that the 730T also has 2nd machine specific driver named " ibm730t.386 "
- now wondering if there are are two machine specific drivers for the 360PE ? ? ?

Can anyone confirm if other Thinkpads from this time period running windows 3.1 needed machine specific drivers of this sort?
