On Panasonic Japan (Windows) drivers site, looks like CF-31S, U, or V is MK3.

Update: After looking at available webcams for CF-31, it appears that most sellers say "compatible with all CF-31 submodels - MK1, MK2 up to MK5". Or "WILL NOT WORK IN CF-31 MK6 MODEL*********** The bios in the mk6 is not capable". There are MK6 CF-31s sold with webcam pre-instal...

I installed one in an MK4 not long ago using Bob Johnson install video:

I would think you could do the same with MK6

Missing the forum activity, and appreciating Rob hosting this forum. When my rich uncle dies, I originally planned to buy a ToughBook 40 from Rob. (Unfortunately, my uncles have all died, and none of them left me a thing!!) But I would love dearly to get one of these!!! Who knows, if I drink heavily...

I've had mine for a little over 6 months now. So far, no trouble with battery. It takes me about 2 days to deplete my battery. Not constant usage, so part of that may be battery conservation features either in Windows 11 or just in the ToughBook itself. Also, I mostly use it at my kitchen counter to...

Slightly off- topic: I just bought a really nice CF-31 MK5 (CF-3111993CM) and put Windows 11 on it. Using the one-click bundle of drivers, all drivers were installed . I may re-try Windows 11 on MK4. (I think I previously downloaded drivers and installed individually, like we used to do??) Maybe you...

On the subject of 5G, I just read this (from May 09, 2022): https://www.macrumors.com/guide/mmwave-vs-sub-6ghz-5g/ Seems that (currently) 5G is a mixed bag, only having the truly great speeds (" theoretical speeds as high as 5Gb/s", actual speeds closer to 2 Gb/s) near airports, concert ha...

Thank you mklym, but I already found that Panasonic page, and no link to a driver, just a workaround for making Airplane mode work with wireless switch (which it already does). I even tried (shudder) DriverMax, which found twenty-some (questionable) drivers for everything that was already working. B...

I have finished installing Windows 11 Pro on my MK4 and many of the drivers were included in the "Optional" updates. From the Windows Store app, I installed: 1.) Panasonic PC GPS Viewer 2.) Panasonic PC Camera Utility 3.) Panasonic PC Settings Utility From Panasonic (Japan) Support Downloa...

Long live your 29!
