    I got my t61p a few minutes ago and i want to do a vista clean install. Will the Vista Anytime upgrade disk be available in the comp usa store. I don't want to order online as it will take a long time for it to come.

    Also do I need to download all the drivers from lenovo? Will I need to install all of them?

    Just follow Stallen's guide here. It explains everything.

    I think you can only get the Vista Anytime upgrade disk online. It took about 2 weeks for me to get it after I ordered. You can still use your laptop during that time...but it might be a little slower.
