Tough Book CF-27

Post by n8jsn@yahoo.com »

Anyone know about a Toughbook CF-27 with the touch screen? I am trying to get the touch screen to work with XP.. I would prolly settle for Win 2k..

Anyone got some ideas?

I have to same computer currently running WIN 2K Pro but the touch-screen isn't working... it would be great to upgrade OS and add that feature. Keep us posted or point us in the right direction!

Thanks

Try Here... http://tcc.toughbook.com/

Try going there, hit the icon next to downloads & put your model number in the appropriate box when the page has revised & you ought to see some bios updates (there's a few depending on just which variety of cf27 you have) & I think the lack of any specific ones that you wanted, means windows is supposed to 'know' .. Applying any bios flashes may well help in this respect, as if windows isn't correctly identifying all the devices (which bios tells it) then it can't 'know'
