Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet PC, XP Pro, SP3. Windows XP Tablet Edition
preinstalled with computer.
Start computer.
Log In.
Window appears: "Windows Installer - Preparing to Install"
New Window appears: "The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or
other removable disk that is not available. Insert the "Update Manager" disk
and click OK. Use source: 1." I select "browse" for lack of anything else
to select. The file Windows is looking for is ISUS.msi, an Installation
Package (*.msi).
I cannot locate this file ANYWHERE.
To end the window (which continues to pop up until I do this), I next open
Windows Task Manager. Select and right Click on "Windows Installer" entry.
Select "go to process". Results: Image Name: ISUSPM.exe. User Name: (me)
CPU: 00. Mem Usage: 13,660K.
Is anybody out there experiencing this besides me? How can I stop this
redundant issue or figure out what Windows wants from me? Thank you so much!

This is no common issue with TabletPCs.

So I'd suggest to ask Lenovo's support.
