Products from the medical sector built at the beginning of the 2000s could be restarted or repaired after the required analysis using old PC and special programming technology. For this purpose, several flash storage media, which were actually no longer completely readable, were read out, compared, corrected and rewritten.
Several times, the original display/touchscreen combinations of controls from well-known manufacturers were replaced by new, less expensive ones, requiring the corresponding drivers. The original components are currently not available and/or completely overpriced.
Here you can read more about it:
- Reference report Tesoma GmbH: New Windows Embedded Compact 7 USB touchscreen driver
- Reference report tci GmbH: touchscreen driver for X86 under WCE6.0
Modules for radio communication (Bluetooth, WIFI) that were no longer available were replaced by new flexible modules, with drivers (transparent according to the application) being written and integrated into the system.
