Recovery CDs for Thinkpad 2647-44U (T-20)?

[Dave G4UGM]

Some of the utilities are on the Lenovo site, for example the DOS PC Card
drivers turned up in a search for T20

http://support.lenovo.com/en/downloads/ds013565

also a utilities cross reference is here:-

http://support.lenovo.com/en/documents/ht036092

but sadly there seems to be no sign of the VGA driver which I guess might be
a show stopper...

... there are hints in google and in search of the Lenovo site it was there
"recently" but sadly all the links seem broken.
