Hey Jonathan,

 

Thank you for the reply. I made this video to try and explain what’s going on.   https://youtu.be/TrbtDoa_i4I

I was in the process of upgrading the Chuwii Vi8 to Windows 10 when it got stuck in a loop and basically I have no acccess to Windows at all. I had made a Restore USB drive, as I do with any computer I get. What I was trying to do was use the USB drive to boot into windows. I plugged the tablet into a keyboard and then I put the USB into another plug and got into the Bios/Boot menu I went to the “Boot” tab to try and change the boot order. USB is #2 and something I have never seen is #1. Nothing I did was able to make the boot order move to the 1st boot position. I know a bit about this, enough to feel like I wasn’t going to screw anything up. So Basically,as it stand, I have a tablet that will ON:Y boot into Android and just goes into this weir loop if I try going to the Windows OS.

 

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you!

Mark

HI!!;

Thank you for the file. I now have it on my usb drive and got into the boot menu and I still cant move the USB drive to the #1 position. I am going to send you some screen shots. I have tried many different way’s and the recovery drive will not start a recovery. I will take some pics and show you what I am doing. I totally appreciate your time!!!

Hi!!,

 

Thanks for helping me. So here is the deal. I checked the USB drive I have the windows backup on and in the EFI folder is only Bootia64.efi so I searched the web for a 32,efi file and I see it all over the place but I have no idea where to download it from. I have been on GitHub and evrn Microsoft windows 10 site. Which is just hanging. Any idea how to get that file?

I tried booting up into the BLUE bios boot menu using F7 but that did noting but boot the tablet regularly into Android. I shut it down and did it again , using what I was told a long time a go which was press the ESC key. That gets me in. When I go to the boot tab USB boot is #2 and I cannot move it at all to the #1 position. I looked for the “Overide Boot” in the tabs but I cannot seem to find that anywhere.

Whatever help you have will be appreciated.

 

Also do you know if there is a way to just HARD reset the Vi8 I tried everythng I could think of which I used on my Asus tab holding down Vol up/Down/Power/ all different ways and nothing.

 

Thank you again!

 

Mark
