Hi,

FreeDOS does not develop drivers for that kind of device as far as I can tell. It comes with CuteMouse, which is available for serial and PS\2 pointing devices. With that in mind, the easiest way to get a touch screen working on bare FreeDOS and by extension any DOS, would be to find a compatible touchscreen. Someone apparently has it: https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=158458

From what I've read in the thread, it's an eGalax device. Good luck!

Best regards,

Michał Dec

Hi Jim,
    Yeah I do remember some decades ago there was a touch device I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called though it was rudimentary touch interface for point of sale systems. I was wondering if in the years since if there had been any drivers for DOS since :-)

    Was not aware DOS could be used in a tapping environment at all?
