[OT] Waddizzit??

I have a Packard Bell Platinum that has a TV card in it. It's a P166. I might probably have the drivers for the TV card, as I purchased the machine NEW (gasp!) back in 1995 or 1996 or so. It still runs - my wife uses it to surf the net and E-mail. As for the TV card, you need to run a cable from the connector on the back of the card to the similar connector on the video card. - Bob -----Original Message----- From: cctalk-admin(a)classiccmp.org [mailto:cctalk-admin@classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of Richard Erlacher Sent: Saturday, June 22, 2002 8:55 PM To: cctalk(a)classiccmp.org Subject: [OT] Waddizzit?? I just picked up a PC at the local thrift store. It has a board that's a half-height ISA card with the designation SCB5 Junior. It's got a mini-din at the backpanel, though it's definitely not the keyed sort used by a mouse or keyboard. I've got to admit, I'm puzzled. The PC, BTW, was a 150 MHz Packard Bell "Platinum" with a 5 GB WD drive and a 56x CDROM, along with the "usual" sound and modem boards and the usual built-ins. It had no keyboard or mouse, and therefore cost only $1.99. I've already established that the drives work, and the machine, which has 48MB of 72-pin DRAM, also seems to run without a hitch. Unfortunately, the OS will have to be reinstalled, since it was passworded. I snagged a similar one last week, with a 1.6GB HDD and an 8x CDROM, but it has a TV card that I'd like to make work if it's possible. Anybody have any experience with this Packard Bell stuff? Dick
