    I'm looking for a set of CF-29 mk2 XP Recovery Cd's.

    The mk2 is often viewed as being 'Old Hat' so I just know you've got a spare set your probably using as beer mats....not interested in the one's currently being used for, or have been used for target practise.

    The seller must be able to accept Papal payment.

    The seller must be able to post Light Packet International to the U.K.

    If you are unsure, the U.K. is on the other side of the pond, the country that spawned the English Language......that was before the Roman invasion in 43AD....& not to be confused with the Ukraine!

    There for the 'Brides' mk2, & I don't want my pants pulled down over the price...be reasonable & it will enable you to liquidise your out of date assets

    I'm not in a mad hurry, it's now 2AM (GMT) & I'm going to bed.

    PM any availability at your convenience.

    thanks,

    O.G.

    Thanks for the PM's.

    I should have said in my first post that I'm looking for MK2-XP1AM-TSW.

    that will be the three disc OEM set....& do not worry about the embarrassment of English Monopoly Money, it gets changed into U.S. Dollars...or Canadian....or Australian....or yada...yada!

    thanks.

    O.G.

    Do the recovery discs contain an image or can I point to them for driver installs?

    Thanks

    They contain an image only, no way to point to the drivers.

    I can't get the TS to work on my CF-73 nor get the Hot Keys to work in W7.

    @Pareto Optimal,

    If you've got driver issues you need to search previous threads before posting in the main forum.

    I've edited my above post after getting 'tongue tied' over conversations about Microsoft Service Pack Updates. You can DL updates from their web site but the DL speed can be slow depending on your internet connection. You can also buy the authentic service packs on dvd, sorry for the confusion.

    O.G.

    Like I said, not in a mad rush, but I'd rather get some disc's before Boo Boo sells the mk3!
