[offer] Packard Bell Multimedia Master CD-486 Recovery Disc

Post by bob2600 »

Hello Everyone,

I did a little more digging and found the original recovery set to my first PC, a Packard Bell Legend 20CD. This system boasted a 486 DX2 Processor, 8 MB of EDO Ram, 1MB Cirrus Logic Video Adapter, and a Sound Blaster 16 clone sound card. The recovery set is comprised of the multimedia master cd that contains the original applications, including windows 3.11 branded for Packard Bell PCs. I consider it a pretty good time capsule of software to look through since it contains the microsoft games pack that included a few simple games to be played in windows 3.x, along with every piece of software preinstalled on this particular PC. I have ripped the CD to a proper ISO and made an image of the companion diskette that contains the proper cd rom drivers and dos environment to properly apply the recovery pack to the PC. Along with the software images, I have made high resolution scans of the CD and floppy labels.

I will upload these to the server if anyone is interested, please let me know.

Yes, I am interested in that floppy and disc; could you please upload to the FTP (or MEGA.co.nz)?

I do have ftp access but for some reason my name is still showing black it never changed to red. I checked the recovery media section and all there is, is the 1995 Packard Bell Master CD and not this one which I assume would be a 1994 version.

The FTP seems to require I upload some exclusive file before I can download others. I have nothing to offer which is why I came here in the first place looking for files for my Packard Bell. Can you upload these discs to a normal site that anyone can access?
