New Windows Installation

[TechnoMax]

Unfortunately I was impatient and did not await the slow update process of my new Hi13. Instead I installed a fresh 1703 version. It worked but missed tons of drivers. I downloaded “Chuwi Hi13 drivers Windows 10 64bit.rar” and got 39(!) folders with strange names. No setup.exe files only inf. I installed all of them and the device manager “only” did not find the Intel High Definition Audio driver. Unfortunately even the Intel Driver Update Utility did not help. It seems CHUWI is not using the generic Intel driver.

I had made several AOMEI Backups from the machine. But to my surprise no restore attempt got me a running Windows.

What can I do now to get a working Windows with all drivers?

Bump.

I have the listed files as well, but don’t know how to install them. I did a clean install of windows and have lost driver support for the touchpad, audio, camera, and pen. I would really love to find a solution that didn’t just re-install the factory CHUWI image.

When I downloaded the drivers I had to use the *.inf files. Right clicking them with the mouse gives you the menu item install.

Now there is another driver package available http://forum.chuwi.com/thread-4035-1-1.html. It gives only 10 major subdirectories and another one for the rest. Now you get setup.exe files to install the drivers.

Thanks for the new driver info, I’m about to go through the same thing. Please keep us posted how it goes, as many readers will learn from it.

Unfortunately my Chuwi Hi13 was almost unusable as a tablet with fingers only support.  It worked a little smoother with a Bluetooth keyboard, but still a no-go by my standards. Started a “fresh” windows reload, but now I’m locked out of it for a few days (had to order the original docking keyboard) *sighs*

I also had the really bad sound problem, low volume and crackles/hiss. Sounded fine on BT headphones though. Weird.

I’ll be watching your post with enthusiasm, so Best of luck!
