Thinkpad 10 recovery media?

Picked up a TP10 today and like it quite a bit (reminds me of my beloved TransNote, writing on a ThinkPad green again!). Anyway, I bought it used and the previous owner wiped the original install and the recovery files, so I;m unable to do a clean install. Does anyone know if it's possible to buy the cds from Lenovo? And btw, the onscreen keyboard works much better than the one on my iPad.

This is what I did the other day to get a TP 10 to install Windows 10...
^^ Somehow the individual screwed up recovery partition and the tablet was in endless loop trying to install Windows 10.
Download the Windows 10 64 ISO image from Microsoft site (
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/softwar ... ndows10ISO)
Get a 8GB USB Key
Use YUMI to create the installation media (tried Windows 7 USB / DVD tool but it failed) <-- I think it had to do with FAT32 vs NTFS??
Boot from the 8GB and go on your way
