I have an X61 Tablet and I’d like to get the original Lenovo recovery media for XP tablet edition (I think version 2005) mostly so I can get all of the drivers and functionality working.

I currently have an XP Pro install but that doesn’t have any of the special tablet features. And my xp tablet edition install decided it doesn’t want to work anymore and BSODs on start, and I don’t feel like dealing with the hunt for old drivers.

Does anyone know where or how I can acquire isos or even the actual recovery CDs for this machine?

I could only find the recovery media in German, but you can get the drivers manually from here.

Lenovos official drivers just kinda don’t work, or are straight up missing for a lot of things.

All of the versions of Windows XP versions were just different enough that a lot of software just straight up doesn’t work if you have the wrong one. There being multiple tablet editions of XP didn’t help either.
