So I already installed these a few weeks ago but they do not seem to be the ones for this device. They did not install for the SD card reader in the i7. I wonder where the original drivers came from…

 

P.S.: Anyone had luck with installing any Realtek Card Reader drivers?

Can’t find them anywhere. Do you have a source?

[ssszzz]

What update?

[ssszzz]

Okay, so I finally managed to download. It’s basically a Win10 install + drivers that you can download from here without having to download the full package + original 5.11 BIOS + Controller firmware.

Nothing new so I would not expect any change from flashing / installing these…

At least that’s what I have found. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Thanks. Will take forever.

How can you even download from baidu? I run into Chinese captchas all the time. Asked their support to make a mirror. They promised to get back to me. Never heard of them again…

Kingston SDHC 16GB did not work for me like 19 times out of 20. Like I said I don’t have it any more.

[ssszzz]

It’s a Samsung EVO 16GB. I came across a list of working cards here or at xda, so I guess this list already exists.

[ssszzz]

Yes, but changed the SD card to a working one (I only have one card) so I cannot confirm any more if the reg hack did the trick…

[ssszzz]

Ah okay, thx. Please keep us posted.

Hey, thanks, just answered in the other thread. I do not have this option, the i7 bios looks completely different. Do you know for sure if custom bioses have this option?

[ssszzz]

Yes I tried, but there is no System Components submenu to begin with. Nevertheless I checked all other submenus but was unable to find the MS Custom SDBus Driver option…

What exactly do you mean by fixing SD issues via BIOS? (I also have these issues as pretty much everyone else but fixing it via BIOS is new for me. I only found reports that this is a hardvare issue.) Thanks.

Oh, I see. Look more like a contact issue to me. But of course you never know. It can be anything and everything.

Something else to check: if I remember well when I did my heatsink mod I came across a microswitch that only lets the tablet to power up when the back is in place. I am not 100% sure though. You may want to check this under / around the factory heatsink plate. When I first opened the tablet up, I could hear a clicking sound as I pressed on the aluminum heatsink plate, exactly like the sound of a microswitch. First with the cover removed I was not able to power on the tablet until I pressed on the HS. It may worth to give this a try. Please let me know if you found it. Good luck!d

Thanks. I PMed Wootever over at XDA (I believe he is the creator of these custom BIOSes) and he confirmed that he no longer distributes those packages. Weird since they have new versions coming out for the i9 based on the i7 but I guess we have to accept it for now. Let’s keep each other posted if any news comes to light. Cheers.

P.S.: May I ask what kind of power issues you have?
