SVX CD ROM from www.subaruSVX.com
 
many years ago I bought a CD (V1.5) that had a 50.000 message database, 1000 + jpgs together with wallpapers, TSBs & desk top pictures all on the single CD.

My young nephew is doing a school project on unusual cars & wanted to do the SVX so I hauled out the CD & told him that I am sure we can find a few pictures to fill in the gaps on his project.

Well Murphy struck - the CD is now not readable ........ does anyone a copy they are willing to copy for me - would use PAYPAL, to repay them.

Does anyone know if there was a later copy available ?.

thanks

Unreadable because why? If the bottom side is scuffed or scratched you can polish it or take it to a movie retailer who can do it. Otherwise, if the data area on the top of the disc is scratched, its done.

Wow! I barely remember that CD. That was MANY years ago! I think you will have a hard time locating another copy of it.

The CD bottom surface is in mint condition & I cannot see any dents or scratches in the label - maybe after all the years of storage it was one of those CDs that had micro-cracks due to heat ? - I tried it on about 15 CD / DVD drives on various PCs.

Any copy would be better than none - my car features on 2 locations on the front cover & about 8 times on the actual CD.

If a good copy is found and can be copied as a master, is this something that might be able to be made available for distribution again, even at an appropriate cost...

Just curious, since this made the rounds initially far before I was around here...

Ensteele,

thanks for looking man - I loved looking through the CD, way before the web site was layed-out correctly.
All those photos in color order + lots of other goodies.
