I'm needing to find the original set of emergency startup floppy
disks for the powerbook 5300, including the system disks if there is
such a creature. There's a virus on this powerbook I've bought so my
plans of copying everything over to the new hard drive is quickly
going by the wayside. Virex says many of the system components are
infected.
I'd also like the clean install of the missing software that comes
with the Global Village modem card, that doesn't seem to be anywhere
on their website.
So far I've been unable to get the computer to recognise an external
CD drive so I suspect I'm missing some extensions. A clean re-install
of software seems to be the better choice.
Any clues on where I might find such creatures? Should a universal
system disk have all the parts necessary for a powerbook to function
or were there special system components that necessitate using only
certain system disks?
Thanks.
If ignorance is bliss, I'm simply drooling away the days :-(
