I've just got a Sony Vaio PCV-RX402 (year 2002) in untinkered condition and I now want to run a clean setup with Windows XP.

The attachment 2303fb74-9fe9-4537-9679-01b47f51aa26.jpg is no longer available

Does anyone have the original installation/restore CD/DVD that came with this model?

PS: unfortunately Sony ended the software Support for legacy systems on 31. of March 2023 ...

... and Archive and Wayback won't provide any matching CD/DVD image 🙁

Building my own PCs since 1991 - for my retro builds it's "no CF-disks, no Floppy emulators, no modern cases etc.", only the real and authentic stuff whenever possible.

I assume you've googled it as well as checked EBAY?

checked both with no success.
It's a real pity that sony just a few month ago terminated the software support for this legacy systems 🙁

I would have liked the idea to restore the System to it's original out-of-the-box state but a least I've got all the necessary XP drivers.
