Reinstalling Windows/ Don't use Windows Insider Preview

[Andrew W]

Yes I SHOULD have taken a disk image when I first got the tablet.

Cube image file is hosted on Baidu. Now I don’t understand Chinese so I’m going to have a heck of a time registering and trying to get an image.

I made the mistake of signing up to Windows Insider Previews. Now this broke a lot of the OS. Tablet Rotation, Brightness Controls. Most of my settings. The ability to ‘Roll back’ and recover my install.

If I can advise you – Don’t do it. Stick to normal updates.

At any rate I got a windows 10 image on SD and installed.

That went okay.

Except NONE of the drivers installed.

No touchscreen, Wifi/bluetooth, touch screen drivers.

Input is only possibly via USB. Thankfully I have access to a wireless dongle.

SD card also works.

Does anyone know how to inject the driver package into a Windows 10 iso.

I’m trying to nut this out.

The driver package that is posted on TechTablets is unsigned so I can’t install this in Windows.

 

Arhhhhh

At least Ubuntu 14.04 works out of the box. Touch/Wifi/BT/graphics.

Google “Snappy Driver Installer”, it will solve most of your problem, except tablet rotation and webcams.

If I return to a standard build of Windows that should solve the rotation and other OS issues.

My problem IS that I HAVE reinstalled windows.

But it is a very bare-boned vanilla install of windows and I can’t even get online.

The micro USB 3.0 is taken up with a USB keyboard/mouse.

USB type-C (not an option atm)

SD-Card is the only way to get something onto the device.

I was hoping to find a way to insert/inject the drivers into the ISO (wim) then install.

NTlite seems to be one such program/method. BUT it doesn’t seem easy.
