WTB: T23 XP Pro recovery disk and Latch?

#1 Post by wogeboy » Thu Aug 10, 2006 2:03 pm

Hi all,

Looks like I need to re-install win xp on the ol T23.
I have the XP PRO COA on the bottom but no disk (s).
Anyone have a set they can sell/burn/copy?

2648-GU2

The small left latch is also broken (the small spring loaded one on the left side of the screen) ..anywhere I can get a replacement?

Thanks !
dan

I would much rather have the actual T23 XP Pro Restore Disk- easier in the long haul...

If anyone has a copy they wish to sell, shoot me an email or pm .


thanks...D

The XP Pro disks will work on any T23, but as for your Win2K system, it wouldn't be legal. To be legal, you need the recovery disks that match your original COA.
