Does anyone have a link to a backup of the Terratec FTP server?

http://terratec.ultron.info looks like it might be an http archive .

Looks like it has everything that the FTP had back in 2008, as an example
http://web.archive.org/web/20081231041054/htt … 64value/Manual/
http://terratec.ultron.info/Audio/EWS/64value/Manual/

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Thank you. It looks like someone's curated backup though and is missing English manuals.

Can you provide some examples of what you are looking ?

im trying to get at the drivers for the Aopen AX3S-U (PRO)
trying to use this board for win98(FE) and the drivers i have downloaded previously were for win98(SE)
(i have some midi interface that only works properly in the first edition of win98 + prior, the driver is incompatible with win98SE specifically because the company went out of business before 1999 when SE was made and i guess SE introduced some type of change to the driver model

hoping to get specific win95/98FE drivers for the Aopen AX3S-U from somewhere?

If you use this archive: http://web.archive.org/web/20020225112703/htt … mbdrv/amx3s.htm
you see the file names and FTP location, most point to this ftp://ftp.aopen.ru/pub/driver/mb/amx3s/ and the /mb/intel/ folders...
which still has files....

With FTP support being removed from major browsers, I wonder how much longer these servers will exist.

Excellent point ! I keep a Win7 box always up and running just to get into ftp with the original ancient IE v11 browser 😀

I can remember how convenient it was to browse FTP sites back in Internet Explorer 5. They appeared like any other folder on the system and you could easily drag and drop files in and out of the window.

I eventually switched to CuteFTP, but it seems to be broken on my modern sites. It doesn't support a required security protocol or something.

Probably longer than you think as most CLI environments still use FTP to get files over networks.

FTP servers can be mounted like drives in "Norton-Commander"-style file managers like Total Commander (Windows) or Double Commander (Linux).
If you're used to handling these with the keyboard, it's pretty efficient.

I like jumpers.

Yes I do.

Here's what I've found. I don't know if it's of much help, but that's all I have got I think.

Thanks for the answer!
Unfortunately that's the files from the "newer" travelmate 6000; originally it was a Pentium 1 laptop produced by Texas Instrument, which then proceeded to sold its laptop business to Acer (so, the "original" TravelMate line was actually from TI, Acer just repurposed the name!).
Anyway, unfortunately neither TI's files nor Acer's files are archived on archive.org. I guess that's just too old of a laptop!

I am looking for the TravelMate 6050 files as well, did you have any luck finding anything? The TI archive.org does have the flash bios update but almost everything else is not archived.

which files ? this archive (as posted earlier) seems to have some: http://web.archive.org/web/20061201233036/htt … /tm6000_dl.html
If looking for specific drivers (video, modem, whatever) please be more specific....

If you read the thread, or even my message, you would see that.. no, it does not.
