Help!

I've a Siemens PC in my posession and it has a touch screen TFT display. I've gone and formatted the drive to put XP onto it and realised that I havn't the touch screen drivers! Oops.
Basically the touch screen replaces the mouse as the PC is self-contained in a wall mount box. Does anyone know where I can get the drivers from??
I've tried the Siemens site and seem to hit a wall on the software front. If I need to install Win98SE then so be it.
It used to have Win NT on the machine before as its really for use in factorys e.t.c..

Can ANYONE help me?

If you need anymore info on the machine then ask and I'll do my best to give it to you!

Thanks in advance.....

I have a disc with some software specific to this unit but its more Comms and stiff, nothing really for the touch screen.

I realise that Windows don't really supply drivers for touch screens e.t.c I was just wondering if there were any 3rd party drivers that would work!

The actual PC with the touch screen is a Siemens Simatic Panel PC 670

No worries. Fixed it. Found the name of the software used in the user manual and got it from the 3Com web-site as a download!
