Someone's brought a tablet PC (Acer I think?) into our workshop with WinXP tablet edition on it. The software is screwed, and he doesn't have any OS backup discs or anything. Will a standard WinXP home installation work?

It will work but it won't have all the 'tablet' bits.Originally Posted by Mike Fishcake
If you don't have access to the original restore discs (no tablets ship with true install media) then try using MCE 2005 OEM CD's with the COA key stuck on the base of the Acer machine. Most of the additional drivers / osftware can be downloaded from the Acer support site.
I seemed to think you could grab all the Tablet bots from MS.com could be wrong though...
That's kind of correct; if you're running the original Tablel PC OS then updating to SP2 will install the 2005 version.Originally Posted by Funkstar
OK cheers for the info - i'll give some of the stuff a try!
