I'm trying to find the official driver package for the Packard Bell Sound 4, aka AT6800W, aka AZT3011. It's named sound4.exe and there's also a Windows 98 patch for it named snd4-w98.exe. In addition to Packard Bell machines, The Sound 4 was also included in some NEC Ready desktops and the drespaz1.exe or drespazm.exe drivers from NEC might be the same as sound4.exe.

The problem is sound4.exe, snd4-w98.exe, drespaz1.exe, and drespazm.exe seem to have been erased from the internet. Packard Bell's FTP is RIP, NEC's FTP is RIP, and every other link is either dead or a scam.

I'm hoping somebody here has sound4.exe and snd4-w98.exe stored away somewhere and can upload them to the Vogons driver library, because it'd be a great help to Sound 4 owners.

At least one of the scam sites lists the contents of sound4.exe and snd4-w98.exe which is sort of useful:

The contents are very different from the spartan AT6800W and AZT2320 drivers available on Aztech's FTP.
