It's too bad you bought it, you can download from IBM's web site (under
the section for Thinkpad 390). Installing it over a previous version is
tricky:
1. boot up with no cards in
2. uninstall old version
3. reboot with no cards in
4. install new version
5 reboot with cards in.
Then you must run the wizard on the network card to check to see if it is
hot-swappable.

I had a 600 befor this and I've noticed many of the drivers and or software don't seem to work as well as the NT drivers for the 600. I keep checking the ibm matrix page hoping they post an udate for the video, and the modem.
