Use any windows installation disc and get the drivers from their website.

www.lenovo.com has it all, dude. I got my T61 with linux, installed Tiny XP rev08, downloaded the wifi driver and the auto-installer from lenovo's site and then let the auto installer take car of whatever the laptop needed.

problem is i cant even connect to the internet cuz i dont have the ethernet drivers, and just transfering them to the laptop with a flash drive doesnt work.

Uh, yes it does.

Download the installer JD was talking about, transfer, and run.

Or download the drivers, right click my computer > properties > hardware > device manager, double click the ethernet hardware which should be under "other devices," choose update driver, browse to the flash drive.

Both my T42's didn't come with discs, how do I make a disc?

T42p = XP Pro SP3 IE6
T42 = XP Pro SP3 IE7

Yes JD, I bought another one from mom. $$310 shipped for 1.7 GHz, 1 GB ram, 40 GB HD, 32 MB vid, it's for mom but can also be used for tuning.
