~Toughbooktalk~

Hi, I am trying to recovery my CF-19CHBAXBM the recovery DVD I have is DFQM8447MA WIN XP SP2 Tablet edition. I am pretty sure I have the Tablet/digitizer screen as it has the stylus.

Every time I run the DVD I get a message saying this model is not supported. Do I have the wrong Disc?

I did modify the batch file to something like this which I found on another forum -

PROMPT $P$G
rem -------------------------------
rem RCV_OS check (as HD recovery)
rem -------------------------------
:PRECHKAC
if "%RCV_OS%" == "XP_PRO" etc, etc, etc....

I do get further into the recovery process -

After setting the Toughbook to boot from the CD Drive (see above), reboot the Toughbook with the Panasonic recovery disk in the CD drive.

2.Press 1 to execute Recovery. The License Agreement screen appears.

3.Press 1 to select "Yes, I agree to the provisions above and wish to continue."

4.Select the installation settings.

5.At the confirmation message, press Y. Reinstallation starts automatically.

At this stage the message I get on screen is -

An Error has Occurred.

I have also fdisk'd the MBR and made a new partition....


Thanks Ben

Mm, so why do I have a stylus?

Also given those details I take it I will have the wrong DVD's?

Touchscreens have stylus's also

The smaller hole is for touch stylus, wider hole is for the digitizer stylus.



The digitizer stylus has a clicker button on the side.

The standard one is just plastic.



Also what does your COA say? Tablet or Pro?

Hi ADOR,
The COA has PRO.

I did ask the seller before I bought the DVD's also gave him model and serial.....ohh well another Frisbee!

Thanks

Ben

Pro equals XP pro not tablet. It can always be resold.

Well now that you know, maybe the seller has the right ones and will swap for what he sent. Who did you get them from?

Bought from ebay, hopefully he has the right one.

Thanks

Ben
