Interesting thought.. Wouldn't there be some legal copyright issues?

I would not think so unless they contained some third party applications not for use without original CD.

i.e. just driver discs people!

No ripping and uploading of bundled games / apps, etc...

Nope, not even DEMOS!

If you want illegal...go find some torrents or something...not on the forum!

In that case,  request what you would like, and I will upload it to Megaupload and send you the link(s).

I don't want to get anyone in trouble, even though I highly doubt that anyone gives a sh!t  Wink

I thought about the same some time ago and found the only issue would be bundeled Software that is still being licensed (e.g. 3Deep Colorific)

I contacted the current company a long time ago concerning exactly this issue but never got a response.

So for as long as there is no such Software on it, I consider the contents of Driver Discs as freeware.

(technically, many - if not all - 3dfx drivers clearly state that all content is subject to 3dfx licensing, but not even after modifying the code the current license holder (NVidia) ever raised their voice... Therefor I'd say all Drivers, Demos, Patches etc. are after all this time unlicensed / abandonware)

For the few remaining risks I pay lawyers since ages, in case I'd need them I'd at least get them working for my money Wink

As any contained Software is technically obsolete by all standards today, my position is that these CD's do not pose any risk for redistribution - for as long as it's free of commerce.

I can scan the discs and upload the images if you would like.  Just let me know which one(s) you would like.  If I don't have them maybe someone else does and can scan them...
