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 ...

I bought a collection many years ago off of eBay, and had a lot prior to that. Let me check my box of CD's, and I'll get back to you. It would be helpful if you knew exactly which CD you were looking for. bobwatts EartH |

Found five CD's that are older than 1995, the newest file on these CD's is
1994. They all have Win 3.1 or 3.11, and of course various other Packard Bell restore files. I *DO* not know if these CD's are specifically for a 486, or what specific machine these CD's are for exactly. bobwatts EartH |
