Hello,
I have some trouble with a downgrade from Windows 7 to XP. This is the first time I'm doing this, so quite likely I'm doing something wrong. T500 2082-BPG, Windows 7 Italian. Included media: Rescue and Recovery DVD 45M5915 Product Recovery Disc Windows XP Professional SP3 1/2 PN 58Y1972 Product Recovery Disc Windows XP Professional SP3 2/2 PN 58Y1899 Both recovery discs state on the label: Type 2801,2808,2809,2815,2823,2824,2825. This model is 2082 (not listed), which I didn't notice before I started. I exploded the original Win7 install and created the Software and data recovery DVD. Then I booted the rescue and recovery DVD, selected full restore from DVD. The Disc got formatted/cleansed, "no turn off and restart". At boot Rescue and recovery started automatically from hard disk, asking for the recovery media. By selecting CD/DVD it said to insert the LAST cd/dvd of the set; anyway both the first and the second WinXP DVD are rejected (it always asks for the last media of the set). Am I doing something obviously wrong? Should I contact Lenovo for a correct recovery media set?
