The System Credentials are a listing of the original specifications included with Packard Bell computers. It was stored on the hard drive, and a hard copy was also included. This hard copy was printed with the Packard Bell and a laser printer, as noted on the bottom of the sheet. Here's what is know about the System Credentials:
• System Credentials are stored in the hidden file PBSPEC.BIN on first launch of the System Credentials program. This file is stored in C:\PBTOOLS
