My friend, have you ever configured an LED signboard before? If not, what you will learn will shock you...
...a lot of these boards are controlled by proprietary chinese software that only functions on Windows XP.... even today.
As to why they don't have a more modern OS connected to a signboard that obviously supports at least VGA and probably HDMI.... I don't know. Especially since the BSOD is a Windows 10 BSOD... XP did not have QR code sad face BSODs at the time.
There's one LED advertisement board in my area that I see pretty often. Nowdays I'd say it shows something it's not supposed to more often than an advertisement.
Previously I've seen BSOD on it a couple of times, but recently a lot. Also "Finish setting up this device" and part of the desktop showing Windows 11 wallpaper.
My guess is someone upgraded it from Windows 10 to 11, and now it works even less.
Because they don't want to change the drivers or have to revalidate the entire system. And if they're not connected to the Internet then it really doesn't matter.
This was a prerecorded video, if you did not catch that.
Now that makes more sense.
Well, the BSOD without a reboot should have been the giveaway. The keyboard clicking noises should have been another.
Didn't see a video of it anywhere on the article. Either my browser didn't support or idk.
Video scalers my dude. Proprietary yes, but Chinese is questionable. Crestron, Extron, QSC, all major video products based out of the US, tho I believe only Crestron manufacturers in the US.
I say it and mean it - when the software is in chinese language or has a very broken english translation for an interface...
I think you might just be using cheap shit off of Amazon lol.
So the only products that met the budget actually approved by management.
A lot of ATM cash machines run Windows 7. Yes, still.
