I need someone with a Packard Bell 680 series (aka. Multimedia CLE, Multi Media CLE 1211, etc.) to help me out!
BIOS version must end with "DN0R", and the motherboard chipset is Intel NV430VX.
I accidentally flashed MR BIOS to my unit without dumping the original BIOS first, so I'm looking for someone who can run DUMP.BAT (found below) on their Packard Bell machine and upload the outputted BIOS.REC to somewhere. I can't just get the original Packard Bell BIOS online and flash it back, not even in BIOS recovery mode, as MR BIOS changes too much of the original BIOS.
The machine must be of the PB68x series, have no onboard audio, and must have an S3 TrioV64+ integrated GPU.
Machine must look like this: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/MJ4AAOSwRlpjtgyi/s-l400.jpg
And the motherboard like this: http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/pb/mb/682.htm
Here's a .ZIP with the tools needed, just run DUMP.BAT under MS-DOS (in real mode, not under Windows): https://16-bits.org/etc/PBSTUFF.ZIP
Thanks!
