There is possibly one way you can try. Install "BELARC" advisor on your old Packard Bell. Once it's installed, run the programme and it will eventually show you the Keys for all the software loaded on the PC. If it came pre-installed it woill probably have an OEM key (Original Equipment Manufacturer.) When you have this, you could try going to Adobe's website, see if you can download the software and when prompted, enter the key that you have found in BELARC. Not promising anything, but worth a try.
