I got a Lenovo Thinkpad T61 without an operating system, and without a recovery partition intact. I also did not have a Windows Vista OS disc, which is what the T61 runs on, so I got myself a set of Windows 7 Home Premium recovery discs I made from my desktop, and used that instead. Now the computer works, but I have a few issues:
1. The T61 now thinks it's an Acer computer with all the Acer files and all that, so basically right now this is an Acer computer inside a Lenovo machine.
2. System doesn't run properly (things crash regularly, webpages don't open, lags everytime I try to click anything, even windows explorer)
My hoped result is to have a real Thinkpad computer that works like a Thinkpad with Thinkpad files and drivers on it, not a Thinkpad computer with a bunch of Acer on it. Any fixes?
