Please Help! In search of a Packard Bell Master CD# 170210
Hello all,
It seems that related posts from others in search of this CD have come up here a handful of times over the years. I'm trying to restore my vintage Packard Bell machine (PB Pro 65CD Supreme) to it's former glory but am missing the original Master Restore CD ...#170210. I still have the original 3.5" floppy to boot the restore from, but lost the Master CD many years ago and didn't consider that I would ever need it again ...I obviously underestimated the sentimental attachment I had to this machine. Any help (copy or original for sale?) would be greatly appreciated. Regards |

Hello
I have flipped through all of my Packard Bell Master Restore CD's, ( almost 70 of them ), and didn't find that number. What CPU do you have ? Is this an old 486, or Pentium ? bobwatts EartH "Snobrdr000" wrote in message ...

When I was writing software earlier for PB restore disk modifications,I also wrote a bios for the 450MB that sees a 2 gig HD and identifies the manufacturer . I am not a software writer by nature I just taught myself to some degree. I hijack and change existing things and add some new things to it. It is actually the OEM bios that I modded myself before all the modders now who post and say nothing and take 20 or 30 pages to do so. |
