ha0124 Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 I'm trying to get hold of a number of educational CD titles from the late 90's early 2000s that were bundled with RM Connect 2.3/2.4 as part of the User Group restoration project. They would normally have been installed in the RM factory off an AIT tape, which has been lost to time. We have managed to get hold of most of the disks and rebuild the VCD-ROM .FCD files from the original disks. We are struggling to find the following disks. Any help would be massively appreciated! We have already exhausted archive.org, ebay, and the original publishers! Oxford Word Box / Our Word Box Oxford Childrens Encyclopedia Ransom Dive Into Maths - A Whale of a Time Ransom Leap Into Language 2 Henry's Party - We are not sure who distributed this disk Through My Window - again not sure who distributed this disk Anglia Romans - Needs to be Windows/Mac disk not Acorn DK Mad About Science - Energy and Forces Sherston - The Map Detectives Please DM me if you have any copies we could get hold of James - On behalf of the RM User Group Collections Team rmusergroup.net
6Foot2 Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 When the first school I worked in migrated from the old network (O/S2 back end) to RM NetLM, and then later RM Connect, I remember Didcot Girls' School was very active in hosting a lot of RM resources. Perhaps (if there is someone who remembers "the old days") they might be able to help in some way?
PotNoodleTech Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 Yeh I remember the old days too still got my RM Certified Technician and IT Manager badges Sadly we were forced to recycle a load of old RM stuff when we lost our store rooms. I even had an RM380Z. Didcot were super pie hot on all the RM stuff back in the day. I am assuming they've moved away from RM now though.

Perhaps (if there is someone who remembers "the old days") they might be able to help in some way? I think I had one of those RM networks in my first school An old token ring affair (not kidding!) with thin clients and a weird server setup woth OS\2 and Windows 1.0! I had it decomission after the first 12 months as we had a Viglen Classlink system installed just before I got there as part of the NGFL project. I also got rid of Classlink at the same time and went over to vanilla Server 2000 with Windows 2000 on the desktops. My support calls went down over 90% once we ditched the old RM system and Classlink\Windows 98se on the new desktops.
ha0124 Posted February 26, 2024 Author Posted February 26, 2024 Thanks everyone, so far we have located Oxford Children's Encyclopaedia, and Map Detectives Any help with the other titles would be amazing.
