Hello all.
New to the site. I've been lurking and searching and found all that I could. So I decided to post to get some answers.
I recently picked up a megatouch gold. I want to build my own enclosure for it (didn't come with the lot). I am going to add an lcd touch screen. I think I have all that I need to do that. Elo brand 15" and serial connection, not USB.
My problem is in the software. My unit came with a cdrom and the gold software disc/key. Since I'm building the box and setting it up how I want it, I was thinking about doing the whole sd card thing. I know I will need an IDE/SD adapter and the SD card. But what software can I go up to? I think platinum and titanium are the best. But what do I need to get? I saw in the merit tech notes that I do not need to change any chips to switch to a hard drive or in my case an sd card. I'm finding conflicting threads saying that I will not need a new security key. And other threads saying that the gold series has hdd encryption checking something or other. So I'm getting confused as to how to go about what to do.
I've searched high and dry for a torrent for a image to see if it will all work. Not that I have to steal it, I just don't want to spend a ton of money to find out it won't work.
thanks guys/gals,
Chris
