Problem installing the driver

To install Windows XP on a Panasonic Toughbook CF52
you have two choices:

1) Use a standard Win'XP Pro SP3 boot CD and then
then download each driver from the Panasonic Website:

http://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/itn/drivers/d_menu_en.html

2) Purchase the recovery disk from Panasonic directly
from the following website:

http://business.panasonic.com/support-computerstablets-dvdrequests

Here is what they say:
Recovery DVDs are available by mail for select Toughbook® products. Windows® XP back up service is only available to customers who purchased Panasonic computers with XP downgrade rights. Windows XP Backup Image and Windows 7 Recovery DVDs restore a PC to its original factory image. The standard Panasonic factory image includes the Windows operating system and all drivers/applications originally installed by Panasonic.

That is it.
Good Luck!

You can download the latest driver from their site here:
http://support.creative.com/Products/Products.aspx?catid=218
Just select your model there and there will be a download link on the product page. If your model is not listed there, scroll all the way to the bottom and click on "If your product is not listed above, please click here."

The version of driver is citical - if the scanner has Win7 drivers available use those, if not then it's not supported. If you have Pro or Ultimate you could try running setup with compatability mode.

Hello,

Você vai precisar instalar drivers para sua web cam que suporta XP 2002.

Você terá que instalá-lo a partir do CD que veio com o computador.

Ou você vai ter que procurar os drivers na internet.

You could use a copy of bartpe on a usb stick. same with windows if you know how to copy your original cd properly. Its actually pretty easy I have both bartpe and xp pro on a single stick and used it to install to an older compaq that had no cd drive. setting up the stick for bart pe can be a little bit of a challenge but there is plenty of help on the web for it.
Same with how to copy your original xp cd.

You can still install windows xp without the recovery disc. Just buy a windows xp installer then download the v2 premier driver in the net.

I have the same model and problem if installing from original CD on Windows XP (the driver is old and not for XP). The new XP driver will work.

Here you can download latest drivers for your quickcam pro

Hi notsoscrewed- As long as you have your original XP disk you can save everything. First, make sure your pc is bootable from your cd drive. If you know it is good. If not, when your pc boots it should say something like hit F2 or <del> to enter setup. Go into the BIOS and find your boot options and make sure your cd is listed as bootable and listed to boot before your hard drive. Then save and exit. When your system reboots make sure you have your XP cd in your cd drive and your pc will say press any key to boot from cd rom. Press any key and follow these steps:

You must boot from your XP CD. Please make sure it is the same version of Windows that is currently installed on your computer (ex. XP Home cannot repair XP Professional). Place the CD in your CDROM and start your computer. Newer versions will work as well (ie. Windows XP Pro SP2 CD will work on an older WinXP Pro SP1 installation)
Before the Windows logo appears, you will be asked to press any key to boot from CD, so do just that.
A blue screen will appear and will begin loading XP setup from the CD.
Choose the FIRST option, NOT recovery console.


Choose F8 to continue

Next, Windows Setup will find existing Windows XP installations. You will be asked to repair an existing XP installation or install a fresh copy of Windows XP


That should be it. Windows XP will appear to be installing itself for the first time, but it will retain all of your data and settings. Just follow the prompts, have your CD-KEY handy . You may have to install XP updates again and reactivate XP but small price to pay and little time to be able to save all your software and info. Let me know what happens.

If this solves your problem PLEASE rate this as fixed. If you need more help with this just add a comment and I'll be more than happy to assist you further. Thanks.
