Hello everybody.
The graphicscard in my iPC sometimes stops working. So I decided to get a new mainboard with 2 monitor outputs. The XPe image from HES won‘t work with this other mainboard. So I tried to install a standard Windows 7 and HOG3PC on top of it.
In the device manager of Windows the frontpanel, the SuperWidget and the MidiWidget show um and have all drivers installed.
And here begins my problem: The frontpanel and the SuperWidget are not available in HOG3PC. Only the MidiWidget is found.
Anyone knows how I Van get this setup to operate together?

There were a limited number of motherboards compatible with the iPC due to drivers etc. which are included in the software. The motherboards have all been discontinued.
But your answer can't be true, because the IPC runs HOG3PC itself. It is installed by the same .msi archive as I can download on highend.com. So the HOG3PC software MUST be capable to use the IPC frontpanel.
I see 3 possibilities how this works:
1. On the console the software is launched with parameters (e.g. Launcher.exe /useIPCfrontpanel)
2. The software recognizes, that it runs on an embedded system and uses the frontpanel automaticly
3. The frontpanel driver on the XPe image is different to the one, which is included in the HOG3PC archive
So I'm sure, the software and the frontpanel work together. My only question is: How?

Soon my iPc will arrive and I'll start to solve the above problem.
I made a 80 program midi wing that I can only mount under HogPc under full Windows.
My solution concept is to find out exactly what drivers are installed in the Xpe that handle the front panel and the other devices.
If they do, I copy it to the full Windows and go to the front panel and all the devices.
Another "task" is to feed iPc devices with Hog4Pc.
sounds nice. In my opinion, it looks like, the Hog3PC software is launched with parameters to get the frontpanel working, because it wouln't make sense to change the (working) drivers to different once (the vendor and product IDs would sty the same). And afaik, the RoadHog (Full Boar) also runs on XPe like the iPC. So the software wouldn't know, which frontpanel it should activate, when it just looks for embedded systems.
But let me know anything, you figure out.

The front panel for full windows is a failure. (The wing tester sees the iPc front panel, H3pc is not).
I will not give up trying again! There is hope!
In the meantime, I unlocked the iPc Xpe system so I could install any necessary accessories. (Midi Controller driver, Midiyoke, Midios, and 3 Samsung 17 "monitor the touch driver.
That's right now. If I have a development.
Have a nice day everyone.
Finally done!
Ready for work!
