CF-73 touchscreen not working

#1 Post by Silver Trooper »

Does anyone have the CORRECT/PROPER order in which the CF-73 drivers should be installed? I have installed all my drivers (more than once) and still cannot get the touchscreen to work. Device manager says it is installed and working properly and the calibration program will open, but nothing happens when I touch the screen. Touchscreen does not show in the BIOS. I have also checked the connections. Bad t/s?
One CF-52, four CF-18's, 4.5 CF-28's, one CF-29, five CF-M34's, two CF-37's, one CF-P2 and two CF-P1's. There are also two Getac A320T's, one Fieldpac and two IBM Transnotes. Not to mention the AMD 5600 CPU with three monitors and several HP PDA's. Whew! Must quit buying...no, must have MORE! Then there are the weapons...

My CF-73S (Mk.4) has a USB-based touchscreen that does not show up in the BIOS even tho it works OK.

Yes. You have a bad touchscreen, you're going to need a new one.
