The hard drive on my tc 4200 failed. It came with a 40 gig Toshiba hard drive and I replaced it with a Samsung 160 gig drive. However, I was not able to load the tablet operating system. I was able to install XP Professional and the machine works find as a laptop, but of course I have lost the tablet functionality.
How can I install the tablet operating system?
I bouht one used and had no tablet pc restore discs, but my 40 GB hard drive was full of programs. I cloned the drive with operating system reimaged my 160 GB hard drive with the image. You need to use partition software to repartition the new drive to " see" the larger drive with free space. This can be done before or afte. I did it after because i had to go thru trial and error acouple of times due to no real concrete info on the web.
I have a number of these units in my business. I believe I read somewhere that this unit's bios limits HD to 120gb. If you are using restore disks, there might be an issue with the drive size. Just a thought. HP sells the restore disks on their site.
Do you have the system restore disks for your tablet? Once you have restored windows then you need to use the second disk to load all the drivers
