Help needed getting a ELO touchscreen running in Windows 7 64 bit

[hendo97]

I have a old ELO 15" (1525l) touchscreen that I am trying to get to work on Win 7 64 bit. Does any one know of drivers that will work for this?:cry:

Hi,

 

I don't know what will work, but have you tried any of the software/drivers from th e ELO site?

Ya I have tried most of the win 7 ones and cant seem to get the touch part to work. I emailed CS. Just have to see what they say. thanks

Any one running a elo et1525l touchscreen on win 7 64 bit? If so what drivers are you running?

My suggestion would be to take a spare HDD and load it with XP or use an older computer with XP on it and see if it works with the older OS.

 

If it doesn't, then the touchscreen interface or the USB interface for the touchscreen is bad.

i really like elo i have a e1545l and last time I looked they have win 7 drivers. If you call them like I did because i was confused about something with the drivers and got a very helpfull woman on the phone with a nice voice. try it. i am using one with win 7 32 bit for a jukebox. Im looking forward to using the second I got for helios or something on a new win 7 64 bit system someday. So I hope you get your answer.

 

 

Are you using a usb to seriel cable too. Or are you using serial to serial? Thats what makes the touch part work.

I was running an old 12" Elo via a USB to serial adapter and it worked okay in Win 7 X64. The drivers were a bit flakey on shut-downs and would sometimes bluescreen win 7, but they did work while running.

 

I was using the latest drivers from here at the time: http://www.elotouch.com/Support/Downloads/dnld.asp

 

They are listed as supporting Win 7.

 

Hope you get it sorted out.

Hendo,

 

Any luck on getting this to work? Im having similar problem in a real sim.

I use a couple of these with one on win 7 64 bit. I have no problem. I have the 1545 seriel versions. Using a tripplite usb to seriel connection. Win 7 loads the driver for that no problem.

 

The website has the universal driver at the top of that page. Some seriel adaptors can have poor drivers and cause problems.

 

i see there are a bunch on ebay for cheap! This is what mine look like. He has 24 for sale.
