How To Install TIS2000 on an RCA Cambio Tablet 10.1” with The Windows 10 (32) Bit Operating System:

THIS Site has apparently been obtained by another Corporation that no longer carries the Critical Step-By- Steps required to Activate the 16 Bit Features on the Windows 10 32 BIT (ONLY) necessary to KEEP THE ABILITY OF USING TIS2000 ALIVE IN THE WINDOWS 10 ENVIRONMENT;

Instead... I have ventured elsewhere seeking to locate these critical steps and found an alternative site ...Memorialized below as a PDF Attachment that will NOT arbitrarily DISAPPEAR. Remember this Folks... Big Corporations Make Money by HOARDING and SELLING DATA So They could NOT Give a *Tinker's Damn* Whether or NOT we manage to keep the Old and Reliable Tech 2 and the Original 16 Bit Applications from the Mid-1990s ---ALIVE--- anymore. The Price to be Paid is the Constant Vigilance a the By-Word necessary HERE at GMT Nation for trying to do so and keep this Old Tech 2 Vital, Alive and Well...in Perpetuity.

(1) This Technique will NOT work on ANY of the 64 Bit Flavored Windows 10 Computers.
(2) Visit the Link Below and Follow the Instructions, On Screen Prompts and Screen Prints to Wake Up the Native (16) Bit Capabilities of Windows 10:
(3) Reboot the Tablet and Turn Off the WIFI, Firewall and Anti-Virus Apps.
(4) Use a Rioddas Standard USB External DVD Burner to Install the (3) TIS2000 Disks (NO PS Required). The RCA Cambio comes with One Standard Size 3.0 USB Port on the Left Side Plane.The Rioddas Unit is SWEET and STABLE.
(5) Use the Latest Flavor of TIS2000 (3) Disk Set of Installation CDs. Note that during the Final Disc Install... the 3rd Mini-Disk has a Properly Working Dongle Crack available as a single .DLL File to Copy/Transfer to the cosids/bin sub-directory. Rename the Old .DLL before doing this.
(6) Reboot the Machine and then, after turning on the WIFI, Firewall and Anti-Virus Programs, Select the TIS2000 Icon from the Desktop and put the App through its Paces to ensure that the SPS Program Functions properly... without any AV or FW interruptions that might harm the Tech 2 Hand Held Scanner. A GOOD USB to Serial Port Adapter WILL be required.
(7) That's all there is to it... No Complicated VMWARE… No Weird 'Windows Magic'… and No Entanglements. It is just a Direct CD Installation using the Hidden (16) Bit Drivers Native to the Windows 10 (32) Bit Edition to coax things along.
Why Do This?
Because the RCA Cambio (...Only $110.00 on Amazon) has a (6) Hour Battery Life and is Very Lightweight… with a VERY Small Foot Print that will allow it to sit on the Center Console or be rotated into a Tall Rectangle for ease of Touch Screen use inside the Cab. Also… it is nice because all of the other Windows 10 Apps still function and you can Install HP Tuners (The Latest Blue Tooth Version) on the same Tablet with plenty of room to spare for easy Data-Logging.
Nothing like Having Your Cake… and Eating it TOO! :>)
The RCA Cambio has both the Touch Screen and Wide Touch Mouse Pad options built into the included Magnetic removable QWERTY Keyboard that sports NICE BIG Keys and is nice and crisp when typing. The Screen quality ...even at 1280 X 800 Pixels is Clear and Bright. I installed a 256 Gigabyte Stick of Micro-Ram to bump it up from only 32 Gigs of OEM Storage. This thing made it EZ-PZ to install the Legacy TIS2000 Program… and I’m satisfied that it Runs Like A Champ. :>)
Hope This Helps... (To Get me out of 'Windows-Posting' Purgatory...
