we can’t know what you mean yet — you need a bios and the only way to add a bios if there is none is by putting clamps on the flash chip.
realize that optimal ordering is: 1) flash bios from working windows 2) flash android update, which clears all partition information and leaves room for windows 3) install windows.
where did it go wrong? did you flash bios for iWork8 AIR i1-TF from working win10?
if you say tablet’s not dead — seems there is some bios, but no boot information for it to find, please describe what happened

thanks for the respons
yes, i flashed the bios from windows 10 & it failed dunno why, then it restarted itself & stuck at blank screen (the one after cube logo & before we choose dual boot option) & i do know the steps for reinstalling the firmware (which i got from Chris’s tutorials for reinstall the ultimate version)
tried to enter bios using escape button & didn’t work
looks like no bios installed & need to know how to install it without windows
April 6, 2017 at 3:33 pm #64802i think, i have a similar problem like rino.
i downloaded the firmare from here (http://www.modaco.com/forums/topic/377929-urgent-i-need-firmware-cube-iwork8-air/) and moved to files from the bios folder to the windows root of my iwork8 air.
i’ve run 1_flash64.bat with admin rights and some things were flashed and made at the console. after this, the tablet restarted itself and showed a black screen. after a couple of minutes i pushed the power button for a second, but nothing happend. after more minutes i pushed the power button for 5 seconds, no response.
i bricked my tablet, right? or is there any change to revive it, besides “putting clamps on the flash chip”? 😉 🙁
