    Hey,
    I'm trying to make recovery discs for my T61. It made the recovery start up disc (Disc 1) but after writing Disc 2 (DVD) it gave me a verify error at 25%, so it asked me for another disc. I put it another DVD and it gave some "reading ini" error and goes back to the "Select which drive you want to burn to" window.
    After selecting my dvd burner again, it starts burning Disc1 again! After disc 1 (recovery startup) is done and I put in a blank disc 2, i get a reading ini error again and it starts all over again. Any solution to this problem? This is my first time creating recovery discs....reminds me of why I build my own custom desktop pcs lol.

    thx! I just called them, they picked up right away and within a minute of explaining my problem to them, they agreed to send out recovery cds within 3-5 business days.
    I'm impressed :) (first time lenovo/ibm owner)
