content: I got junk DPO7104.After some simple power board repair (replacement of the exploded capacitor), I found that the HDD did not work, so I installed MSDN's Windows XP on a new HDD.I collected the driver from the web, but the following one has not been found.- Touch screen(probably Semtech UR7HCTS2-USB from USB-PID047A/VID0004)- ATI graphic driver(The rumor is Tektronix's custom driver to support drawing waveforms directly into graphic memory. With the generic ATI driver I got a BSOD)And tried to install the TekScope app, I get an error that it is not an authorized hardware (I have got an acquisition board driver for VM6000, but it may be wrong).It would be nice to have a recovery image of DPO7104, but can anyone help me?Or can you provide information about the missing driver?

content: So after seeing a picture of the chip, I think it might be the mobility radeon 7000.http://vgamuseum.info/index.php/news/item/114-ati-mobility-radeon-7000It seems to be the same as the radeon 7000 and radeon VE series of chips.So you may be able to get the driver here, and just install the driver without the bloatware, by going through device manager in the OS, going through update driver, and manually navigating to the XP32 driver folder and ini file.http://www.amdradeondrivers.com/amd-ati-graphics-drivers-Radeon-7000-Series-windows-xp-32bit-download-8-252-0-0.html

Leave it with me, and I'll post an edited inf for you to try with that driver software.EDIT : Try dumping this file into the /driver/2KXP_NF folder, and then installing the driver. If it works, it should pop up as a Tektronix DPO7000 Series driver. (I had to zip it to attach it, so unzip it to the folder)Oh and I haven't tested this, I don't have the hardware, nor windows! I'm on Linux nowadays.

content: I have to say a big thank you.The inf file you modified could not be installed as "Tektronix DPO7000 Series".However, I understood the intention and installed the driver of "RADON 7000 Series" and it was displayed on the LCD panel of the main unit without any problem.I got closer to the completion of my work.But there are still some problems.When TekScope.exe starts up, it freezes on the splash screen and the system (OS) restarts.The driver is "ATI WDM Rage Theater Video" under RADEON 7000 is Code 10 error.I will try another version of the RADEON driver.Another is the intel 82551QM (Network Controller) on the PPC board, and its driver is also Code 10. I will look for this driver from web. (I do not know what to do.)EDIT: intel 82550M -> intel 82551QM

content: ok! we're closer! We know the GPU. I have a feeling that Tektronix got a cut down version of the chip, so it's probably got parts missing that would be in the consumer graphics cards. My other concern is that it probably doesn't have the same amount of video memory, and if that is set wrong, it might cause issues. Is there any clues in the schematics to how much video ram it may have? The driver is set for 256MB, but I can change that. And I can probably turn off/disable the rage theater stuff too.If the network driver needs modding too, I can have a bash at it, but i'll need the PID/VID

content: I'm surprised at your knowledge.The RADEON chip on the PPC board is in a multichip package, with a GPU and memory implemented.The memory can be read as Samsung "K4D263238G-GC33".According to this data sheet, it is 128 MBit DDR-SDRAM.https://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/92863/SAMSUNG/K4D263238G-GC33.htmlIs this a video RAM?Your prediction is correct! !ADD:The network chip was VEN: 8086 / DEV: 1229.I do not know what it is used for.

content: OK my bad, the driver might be referencing the megabits, not megabytes. the PC version did come with 32MB, so it does kinda make sense that this one came with 16MB, if it's a cut down version. It also makes sense that the rage theater wouldn''t work, as they''d probably cut out the video codec engine ( for movies, DVD n stuff, not the screen display ). And that samsung chip will be the video ram, it's GDDR. there may be another one hiding on the underside? It might not be though, the 16MB ties up with that one chip, as paschulke2 pointed out.I think a bit more editing of the inf could crack this.So, near the bottom of the inf,change this point to 128. :-[ati2mtag_RV100.GeneralConfigData]MaximumDeviceMemoryConfiguration=256 ← change that to 128MaximumDeviceMemoryConfiguration=128Halfway down the inf, in the  section, change this line :-HKR,, DisableOvlTheaterMode,%REG_DWORD%,0 ← change this end 0 to 1.HKR,, DisableOvlTheaterMode,%REG_DWORD%,1Save the inf back in the 2KXP_inf driver folder, uninstall the video driver (tick the delete files option), then reinstall this modded one. Hopefully it'll go in knowing only 16MB is available, and not install the Rage Theater stuff.I am at the edges of my ( PC ) knowledge here, but I have used these tricks to hack drivers into OS which wouldn't take them. It's fun when it works.You will have to make sure you completely uninstall the first driver attempt, including files, and reboot, before re-installing this modded one.I am assuming this is just like running windows on a PC, i'm not sure of what limitations you have.good luck!!EDIT : For the network driver, have you tried this one ?https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/18717?_ga=2.15617014.1122367556.1553944212-535618971.1553944109If it doesn't work, i'll have to see the hardware id page in the pro/100 m driver, it seems there are many variants of the DEV:1229, so I may have to see the &subsys and &rev parts, the driver has a LOT of exclusions, which I may have to override.2ND EDIT - scrub that, I just realised that you mentioned the chip is the 82551QM. It seems it may be an embedded network adapter. Try this driver.https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/6189/Drivers-Tools-E100EXP-EXE-?product=1288

content: it's possible the modded driver took out the OS, with the memory change. Video drivers in XP, Vista, and Win 7 are one of the few drivers that will outright halt and bluescreen a system. You can sometimes recover if you use "Enable VGA Mode" which will use Microsoft's basic VGA driver, instead of the installed one.Anyway, once you are back up and running, can you have a look at the &subsys of the network adapter? We might them be able to properly identify it.https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/8086/1229

content: OK, you can maybe try this one for the networking. It's a Dell network driver, but it seems to have to code for your chip in it. It seems they used a mobile networking chip, probably aiming for low power as opposed to performance, which would be the best design choice in equipment like this.https://www.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=1124402&auth=At82snaUidNtrCvtF7wFYmllar0f3%2BrewfY6ssl80AT3pOQk3kLoKQNvjnyLtMxZTVjEOLzqHvj4WjbAfQM6XMORkx%2FpwyOInw90RDpPE149Y6ZwUXYYROH0c%2FVkz%2FSs&frmist=1As for the display woes, you could maybe try the Display driver uninstaller, all the messing about might have left remnants of other drivers in, which could be upsetting things. you can use this to clean out all drivers, reboot, and do a clean install of a driver.https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/display_driver_uninstaller.html

content: All these issues zend03122 facing make me think maybe there is HW issue with his DPO?Worth to check that power regulators and all voltages are OK on ACQ and interface board (where that radeon and Stratix FPGA sit, board between x86 PC and ACQ).Maybe there is noisy/random PSU failure, that cause unit sometimes work, sometimes not. If scope is older than 10 years, worth to replace big electrolytic caps and check mains PSU.

If this was a PC, I'd have ran diags on it to test the memory, CPU, Graphics etc. Memory problems can cause bluescreens, as can power problems.It does look like software issues, but you are right, we can't discount the possibility of hardware problems.

Based on the OS image of VM6000. I can not install tekscope without this OS image.(I have not checked the details yet)I tried the ServicePack on the Tek site.* I think that the driver is still wrong or it is a hardware problem of the interface board (as TiN's idea).I'm thinking about an idea to isolate the cause.I believe the acquisition board is alive because I can hear the click of the relay when I initialize it ...

content: Finally, it worked fine! !I disassembled everything and checked all pcb board (checked solder conditions with a microscope, checked capacitors and fuses ...) and cleaned the connector terminals.No obvious problem was found, but it worked fine after reassembling.The interface board (with ATI video chips and Stratix FPGAs) has some BGA components and I'm thinking about possible cracks in these solders.Also, the solder condition of the board connecting the power supply unit and the interface board was very bad (the amount of solder differs depending on the location), and a lot of small solder balls were attached to the narrow pitch connector (but no short found).... There is no photo because I do not have a CCD microscope.I do not know if these are the cause of the problem.This weekend I plan to reinstall the OS and do a heat run test.The solution for the device driver that you helped so far was right!!All custom drivers are works fine.Thank you very much!!!

content: Quote from: BelleJ82 on September 25, 2021, 10:21:52 amHi, ok, it looks like your system is looking for some drivers first of all. So we'll first try to get some of them in, as it'll make the system more usable.I've found a driver for the TUSB33410, which seems to be a USB to Serial Controller. So try installing this.https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-uk/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=r286478As for the others, I'll need some information from you, to help track down drivers which may work.So in the device manager, I'll need your to right click each item, go into Properties, a new properties window should open, go into the Details tab at the top. Then in the drop-down box, choose Hardware IDs, and then in the box underneath, it should list a few PCI/VEN numbers. I need the VEN number, DEV number, CC SUBSYS &REV (if present). Do that for each device.The video driver, I think it might be this -https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/legacy-graphics/ati-radeon-ve-series/ati-radeon-veI've did some digging, and this seems to be a cut down Radeon 7000 driver, but we may still need to mod it to work. Don't run through the installer, instead manually install the driver, so it doesn't put in the catalyst crap.https://itstillworks.com/replace-missing-windows-xp-drivers-6881088.htmlI am assuming here that you have some XP knowledge, and know how to install drivers??Anyway, if you get back to me with the PCI/VEN & DEV numbers, i'll try and track down drivers which should work.L.
