Hi I’m Max I ordered a X98 Plus from BG on 11.11 and was lucky (maybe) enough to snag one of the 9 that they had in stock before Chris posted his review and the orders started to go up
<noscript>&amp;lt;img src=”//techtablets.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/simple-smile.png” alt=”:)” class=”wp-smiley” style=”height: 1em; max-height: 1em;”/&amp;gt;</noscript>I should get mine in 2 weeks or so so I figured I would start a thread for help for new owners. From the reading I have been doing on the X98 Pro, we will more than likely be in store for some Bios flashing, driver updates, tweaks to W10 and the like, if we want to get the most out of this new model. I signed up for the Teclast bbs, but as I don’t read Chinese it is very difficult. Add the fact that you can’t get most links/pics/downloads when proxied with Google translate. Edit: Chrome translates without proxy but it is much more painfull, but at least you get the links, downloads etc. TIPS: Boot the tablet. If it has a pre-installed account you can use it to test the tablet and do a factory reset, or a usb install of the latest version later on, as per Pro tutorial. Your preinstalled account will have all MS spyware enabled. Run a dead pixel test like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIA_4nV-CqE Look everything over, device manager, windows activation etc. Extract your Windows 10 key from the Bios using the utility in the downloads section. **VERY IMPORTANT** Back up the tablet with some kind of backup software. I used Acronis TrueImage in the past but I am not sure about compatibility here. Others have mentioned this: http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx Back up drivers with Double Driver. There is an file here but if the hardware changes in the next few months it may not match your hardware. Flash newer Bios ONLY if you feel comfortable doing so….Brick is possible! Windows November update/intel driver update. I don’ t have mine yet so I can’t say this will not hang at 66% as others have reported for the Pro? Others reported it you leave it be for hours it will complete. Proceed with caution! Will add to the list as more info becomes available. There is a Plus driver pack on the teclast bbs but it may be a copy of the Pro drivers?? There is now a Double Driver rar on this server for the Plus. I look forward to others who have one on order to pop in and introduce yourself! I am sure we will all be looking for help from one another and the Pro owners as soon as we get our tabs! Take Care, MadMax Hi pro, can you guide me to upgrade BIOS????
