They need to be re-created on discs of the same size and density using the Teledisk utility (Download Teledisk version 2.11, Teledisk version 2.16). Most of our old software was archived from either 5.25 inch or 3.5 inch floppy discs of various densities. Please visit Ansgar's site to learn how to use the hpdir and hpdrive utilities. Many of our 8-inch floppy disc originals have also been archived with the hpdir utility. This utility requires a PC with a GPIB card. Magnetic tapes and hard discs have been archived using Ansgar Kuekes' clever hpdir utility. CDs are the easiest to archive (simply by creating ISO images of the CDs). Our software archives have come from hard discs, floppy discs, magnetic tapes and CDs. Any copyright material posted in error will be removed immediately. If you find a software title on this site that shouldn't be here, please contact us. No software titles have been posted without the permission of the vendor, with the exception of items where the vendor is non-contactable. None of the software archived by the museum has been commercially available in the last fifteen years. None of the software on this site is currently available from the original publisher, the original publisher’s authorized agent, or from a commercial entity that purchased the original publisher or the rights to the software.

Where copyright restrictions permit, this software is available for download. Where possible, the museum archives programs to keep a permanent record of this classic software. The original source software resides on a variety of media including punched tape and cards, magnetic cards and tape, floppy discs and hard discs.

The museum has an extensive collection of software that runs on old HP computers. You've come to the right place if you're looking for a boot disc to get that old HP computer going, a utility to get your computer to speak to that 'new' peripheral, or just want to play some old games on a classic machine.
