Panasonic Toughbook CF-53 and Windows XP?

[Damnation]

Hi @Dietmar

 

I recently purchased a Panasonic Toughbook CF-53 off of ebay with the intention of turning it into a rugged XP laptop to last for years.

My assumption was that there would be XP drivers for everything in this laptop, except for perhaps the internal wifi.

This turned out to be true, I found drivers for everything in this laptop except for the internal wifi, which I worked around by purchasing this USB wifi dongle.

There is even an XP driver for it in the driver download for it.

I know it doesn't list XP on the site, but the driver for XP is in there and it works.

Unfortunately, I've run into an issue where even though the Integrated Intel HD 4400 chip has XP drivers and they do install correctly.

Upon reboot I always get a 0x50 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA BSOD at boot.

I'm not skilled enough to figure out why this BSOD is happening.

Can I ask you to purchase one of these laptops and find out what is causing the Intel GPU driver to BSOD? It's got XP drivers so it really should just work.

I can contribute some of the $500CAD to help purchase this if you need it. The one I got is pristine, pretty much unused and brand new which is good.

I'd really like you help to get this laptop to work in XP.

Would you be interested in this? (I had written this as a PM at first but apparently you can't receive them?)
