    Hello,:hi2:

    I am in possession of cf 29 that runs windows 2000. The model # is cf-29ctkgzdm. It does not currently have an operating system. I tried using an MK1 recovery disk that runs windows xp but it says system not supported. I've considered loading an operating system then installing the relevant drivers but from reading the comments of the awesome contributors in this forum, it is clear to me that I would do myself a lot of good to simply purchase a recovery disk. Does anyone know where I can get one? I have already called Heart Land and I have been checking Ebay daily. Any other suggestions? Thank you very much in advance.

    Edited to clarify.

    There is one guy on eBay that sells them Mark Hawkins. I would send him a message on ebay and see if he has a set. He has none on ebay at the moment but he does not run his auction all the time. The W2000 will be a hard one to find

    If you look at his feedback you will see he has sold a lot of restore disk for the 29 but not sure about the W2000 disk.You know I hate to say this because I don't wish this on anyone BUT you just may end up loading this by hand...like OS then the drivers. Good luck.
