Hi everyone. I've had this Packard Bell RS66 notebook for many years. I lent it to a relative 14 years ago, and they recently returned it to me in terrible condition (I was really sad to see it in such bad shape; I took great care of it when I bought it in 2010).

I'm reaching out for your help again. I know this isn't exactly a retro topic, but I'm looking for the official drivers or a recovery disc for this notebook. Why do they have to be the official Packard Bell drivers? Because to use the dedicated Radeon HD3470 graphics card, I need the official Packard Bell drivers. I remember when I bought this notebook, it came with a recovery disc and an internal file with the official recovery drivers, but I don't have either of them anymore. I'd love to use it again as a retro notebook for playing LAN games with my friends.

Spec:
Packard Bell Easynote RS66 Limited Edition (ALP-MANA GM/R)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo T9800
RAM: 2GB DDR2-800
GPU: Radeon HD3470 256MB GDDR2

I feel sad for your poor notebook! 🙁

Don't know how official these are re. PB as the source, but you could try here for a range of listed RS66 drivers / apps... https://www.helpdrivers.com/notebooks/Packard … syNote/EN_RS66/

Thank you so much for your help. I've already installed almost all the drivers, and only the video drivers worked. The special buttons and mouse pad worked, but the chipset driver didn't work because it automatically conflicts with the dedicated Radeon graphics card. After about 5 minutes of running in Windows, I can't get the dedicated graphics card to work in any game; it only detects the Intel GMA.
