Reinstallation CDs for T22

#1 Post by agshepro » Sun Jun 17, 2007 5:51 pm

I do not know how correct this is but I am looking for either originals or copies of factory reinstall Windows 2000 CDs for an IBM T22, type 2647-9EU. I do not need nor want CD keys as I already have the one that is on the bottom of my unit. I obtained my laptop 2nd hand and have been installing a retail version of Windows XP but there are always those few things, even when downloaded that just arn't right. I would like to be able to start from a factory type install.

Thank you

No problem, just post this request in the 'Marketplace' forum and ask for Recovery CD's for a T22. Expect to pay $30 or so.

When using the installation CDs, you won't be requested to enter the CD-Key from the bottom (due to volume licensing). Any of the installation CDs will work.

Also, be sure to format the hard drive prior to using the CDs, or it will give you a second installation on the hard drive. The drive must wiped, for the installation to work without any problems.
