AlphaCoolLCD drivers

Bit of a long shot this, and I think this is the right section to be in so.. These are from 2006 or so and now the alphacool site is down and I can't find any operable mirrors that aren't scam sites.

I'm looking for the above drivers, specifically the AlphaLCD 1.0.4.48 Beta driver for the AlphaCool 5.25 inch drive bay. Barring that, any driver that works with Windows7 64bit will do - but the *.48 driver is the latest that I can see.

Thanks.

I've hosted it here:

I used to have one of these and still had the drivers on my NAS

Thank you VERY much!!

They have effectively been scratched from the internet as far as I can discern.

Cheers!

You’re welcome. Pics needed once you get it working!

I miss mine, it was so pointless and yet so cool

Will do.. It's going in a Lian-li PC-77 case, if you remember those weird things, will take a while but I will post some pictures one here and tag you in it.

One of these:

I acquired one somehow back in the day and never used it, now I'm building my ultimate system of ~15 years ago and it should a be really nice retro system.

Ah the good old Lian Li seashell. The only weirder case was their steam train!
