    CF-30 MK1 XP Touchscreen Drivers don't work

    CF-30

    Swapped out Hard Drive and reinstall XP. The Touchscreen drivers for XP setup file won't even run. The Vista Driver did install, but doesn't work. I have gone to the panasonic website and downloaded the correct drivers for XP and MK1, as well as used the driver off of the site mentioned in other forums for drivers. I'm pulling my hair out rapidly. I get the error: The functionality required by this software is not supported on your system.

    I have windows 7 installed on one of the three CF-30s I have and I have the touchscreen working on that one. The other two machines have XP installed and I can't get the drivers to work on either one.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Are they all Mk1's? If so, what happens if you swap the Win 7 caddy into the laptops with the T/S problem?

    Mk1's are known for defective T/S's.

    :D Welcome to the Toughbook Forum :D
    Are these 30's new to you...why I ask is you say that one of them has W7 on it and the touchscreen works fine so that tells me that the BIOS was updated to the newer Vista/W7 Bios. Check the bios in all of them. W7 BIOS is V1.01L20. If the other 2 of them has the W7 bios they need to be down graded to the XP bios ( V1.00L20) If you are going to run XP again
