There's no button mapping software installed, it's missing so I can't even use the buttons, I've sent the seller a message to see if he can give me any tips.

I'm probably going to have to try and restore the original firmware, hopefully that's not too much trouble.

For now I can play some games with a combination of left stick and touch screen but that's not ideal.

I tried Tincore Keymapper which is an alternative but I cant get any screen touches mapped to a button, I'm seeing errors so I guess there's a problem with this firmware/OS.

Pretty bummed out as I've spent all day googling and messing with it.

Bugger, I went looking and this site has the latest official firmware linked:

http://www.willgoo.com/jxd-s7300-dua...8gb-p-306.html

I was pretty surprised it's only $129 - that's a bargain! If I manage to get a job soon I'll but one as a present to myself assuming you can get yours working as it shod and are happy with it. :)

Today I received the IBM PS/ValuePoint 433DX/S I bought online. Unfortunately the box was not packed right so FedEx had to re-pack it. In the process the desktop got damaged: broken power button, damaged bezel, bent rear metal and the CPU was shaken out and all pins bent as well. Fortunately I have been able to repair most of this and it booted up fine to Windows 95. I will turn it into a MS-DOS 6.22 + Windows 3.11 machine eventually. I also need to buy a new BIOS battery. I really like the IBM PS/ValuePoint series because they are IBM quality (dependable, top line components, extremely well documented) and use cell batteries (so no leaking). :thumbsup: It turns out this 486 is actually a Pentium Overdrive.

I also bought a Philips 109B CRT today (19"). Which is really cool. It goes with my first keyboard from 1991 that I still have (also Philips).

Extra-special hair-like fur fabric for my current project. I had to import this because I couldn't find any UK suppliers. I can't believe how realistic it is (photographs really don't show it, but it has the appearance of real animal fur - aside, of course, from being green :p) - really hoping that I'll get to use this type of fabric on other projects in the future, now.
