Hi all, I have recently acquired a Packard Bell Platinum 55 computer and Nostalgia readings are off the scales captain! We have never encountered a phenomenon of this kind before! 😜
Seriously though, I have since bringing it home installed Windows 98 SE on it but for the life of me I cannot get the sound card to detect the proper drivers. I have the Master Disk and the Sofware Library from my fathers old Packard but I cannot get the install wizard to find the proper drivers also when I boot to DOS I cannot find the CD-ROM drive so I cannot "recover" the computer to factory default.
The Sound card is some strange OEM board, on a large chip it says Analog Devices AD1845JP SoundPort 9608 25506190-0.9 and on another it says AZTECH. I have looked up drivers for this thing but I can't get them to work either.
Any help either with the CD problem or with the sound card is greatly appreciated. 😁
-Thanks in advance.
