I absolutely agree with this as to what *should* be. Ryengineer wrote:If you have Windows XP install disk then you should do a clean install and then download required drivers from lenovo's website. Beside that license, most of the stuff on those CD are standard stuff you can download or get from original window CDROMs. OEM licenses need to be purchased together with the hardware. Lenovo recovery disks as mentioned contains the OEM XP/Vista license and that is why they cannot let you have it. New version of multitouch driver for X60T and X61T. I wouldn't take out the Gnz.snd and the two other drivers, they somehow are interlinked and most likely will be unstable if either one of them were disabled. It would cut down factory re-installation to around 40 to 50 minutes compard to 1.5 to 2 hours of full re-installation. Mike, have you tried to use base software to do a minimal re-installation from original hidden partition ? With X61 coming onto the market, there bound to be someone who has the same problem, maybe Intel has a solution. X61 tablet is using the santa rosa and the new Intel X3100 graphics drivers? perhaps if you get the drivers from Intel itself, it might solve the problem. I guess Vista is still crappy with their drivers compatibility. With his 'hardware' froze to external monitor, then it maybe is the graphic drivers or worst case something wrong with the screen. Most likely cases is a mechanical issue (the frame, uncalibrated detection wires), followed by drivers. which was a few posts below his when he posted his Post #1 (Mike I was not teasing, anyone who can do factory reinstall is no newbie). Mike think Mike already found the postings at and Thanks to those who are truly trying to help. I'm on my 4th clean install attempt with XP Tablet, so it would be nice to see how Lenovo gets XP installed. I've tried changing the order of driver loads, but still no success. My problem is that I can't get the Multitouch to work right (the touchscreen is not suppressed when using the digitizer pen), and the video driver is very unstable when changing modes to use an external monitor (machine locks up hard, frozen cursor, no task manager available, etc). Exactly what is it that Lenovo doesn't want me to have? What is on the OEM recovery disk that I can't recreate, at least in theory, from XP Tablet install disks and Lenovo driver downloads?Įvery driver I download makes me agree to a license, so I think I do have the license for those Lenovo specific parts. I have XP Tablet 2005 license, I have a Lenovo X61, and Lenovo allows download of all their drivers this operating system. Mike use Product Recovery disks for an oem lenovo license one doesn't have is illegal sir. Or, alternatively, if someone could explain how to load XP Tablet 2005 and load the Lenovo drivers so you get a *working* *stable* install of XP Tablet, I'm all ears. No, I couldn't find the machine preloaded with XP in stock anywhere. I have a set of Vista recovery CDs, for what's worth. So, if anyone out there has the X61 Tablet *XP* recovery CDs, or made some from the disk image when you got the machine, I would dearly love to get a copy of that! Help! So I want the install that Lenovo loads on the machine. I can't seem to install it and the Lenovo drivers. No can do, machine came with Vista, that's all you can get, so says tech support. I even tried to ask how much it would cost to get the XP license (which I don't need, already have a site license). Only problem is, they won't send it to me! The machine originally came with Vista. After frustrating myself trying to install XP Tablet and all the drivers from Lenovo and ending up with an unstable machine, I've decided I need the recovery CD from Lenovo to do this.
