That is a specialized point of sale terminal. The teardown video --

gives insight to the guts.
256MB RAM RAM won't support much.

I agree with the first thread, the BIOS is intended to run an embedded OS and you will probably not succeed in installing a traditional OS.

Could I use a cd rom and put a windows installer in it?

I have no idea. It may not even allow booting from a CD. It is a specialized piece of hardware. It was designed to run an embedded OS for things like cash registers and auto diagnostic machines.

Why are you interested in this device?
