I have an HP/Compaq TC4200 tablet PC. It was working fine. Then I got hit
with a virus / spyware attack. In the process of cleaning the machine, I seem
to have disabled / deleted the part of the OS that handles the tablet. The
pen does not work, nor does the screen change orientiation when I rotate the
tablet. I have re-installed the Watcom drivers (several times) and they seem
to be working. Since I am on a long business trip without the original
software CD's, I am hoping to find somewhere to download / install whatever
software is necessary to get my tablet working again.

Sorry, but you would need the recovery media for your Tablet PC. Other than
the XP SP2 (and Tablet PC Edition 2005) the specific software is not
available for your Tablet PC except on the manufacturer's recovery media.

As Chris already said, you are out of luck without the CDs from HP.

The adiitional drivers and software add-ons are availble on the HP
download site
http://h18007.www1.hp.com/support/fi...e/97_6145.html

but you need the CDs for XP TabletPC edition.
This is not availble for download.

You might call HP over the hotline. Perhaps they will mail you an
additional set of CDs.
