1 more thing I need to ask.

Initially the emmc is partitioned to 4 partitions - 100MB EFI , 9.49GB C:/ , 450MB Recovery , 4.52GB Recovery

Is it safe to format the last 3 partitions ( 9.49GB C:/ , 450MB Recovery , 4.52GB Recovery) and make it as one partition?

I understand that we shouldn't format or even touch the first partition (100MB EFI)
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
None of those partitions are safe to remove. Boot efi is the boot sector, recovery partitions include the recovery image and also the extra file resourcing which is used to reduce windows file size. Finally there is the c drive which is the only factoring drive you can remove.

Unfortunately when it comes to tablet pc's your options are extremely limited in order to keep space consumption down, and sadly a 16gb (or 15.6gb factoring in the byte conversion) is no longer able to be used for that much, given the new way windows keeps its file structures organised, by keeping actively used files in the recovery directory, which In turn keeps them safe from accidental loss and they are shared by the os and recovery partitions in case media is required or recovery functionality tools are needed

Success !!!!

I've done it! completely clean install of Windows 10 running on my table!

All drivers installed, everything works! (accelerometer, but I can not turn on to Windows with automatic rotation: D)

They operate the buttons, everything!

Much, much better than Windows 8.1 Chinese factory which was full of Chinese characters!

Now all Hungarian :) (is it because I'm Hungarian: D)

It was so successful that I will delete the recovery partition. I'll wait a few more days to get everything really is OK, but I see no problem.

Now, an OTG cable which can be ordered to spend the tab, it will be a quasi full-fledged mini laptop.

There is a mouse, keyboard, bluetooth speaker, portable wireless battery :) I love it!

Amin was really surprised that GTA Vice City runs through it.

Right now copy them onto the San Andreas :))) I wonder whether it is running on it.

Thank you for the driver that you will ye pack was very helpful.

Let's say that is interesting to the BIOS still can not log in immediately ...

Which button should be pressed immediately after switching on?

As I opened the BIOS that Windows 8.1 did a recovery from reset and from there ...

I have not tried to win from 10 ...

Do you think if it works well with Win 10, I feel free to delete the recovery partition?

Thank you

[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
When I updated from W8.1 to 10 inplace the 4.5gb partition did get deleted.

I'm not sure but I heard that you DON'T need a recovery partition in Windows 10, so you could try to delete the 450mb..... MIGHT be dangerous. IMHO not worth the 450mb space.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] lipothp:
It does not mean the 450-mb town, but the 4GB partition recovery. Amin is on the win8.1 factory setup.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
So the 16GB is really 9GB available to use. With Windows 10, another 6GB++ gone, and real available space is only 2GB++

After some windows update, I only have like 200MB left.

That's not really good at all

Please let us know if it's safe to delete both recovery partition (450MB and 4GB++)

Yes, you actually dont need recovery anymore on Windows 10, it's now handled by CompactOS.

On my tablet, both 450MB and 4GB++ recovery partition are not deleted.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
Pip, Windows 10 seems to remove the additional partition and has it all in one but even if it didn't you can clean up former windows files.

All I advise anyone is this, if your going to start deleting partitions, take a backup image of the device using macrium reflect. If it fails and won't work anymore you can easily get it back up and running. I plan on going over my bios settings tonight for everyone's use.

Another satisfied upgraded, though I haven't tried running any games on my tablet as it's primarily for the car. As for bios, you need to press escape key but you also need to disable fast boot and other settings which I will highlight so you can see the original boot screen. I will try take photos and do a tutorial on it all.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
[MENTION=4735877]jeebob[/MENTION]

Yeah, but I'm not able to boot from USB at the moment so any kind of image backup is really useless for me.

Can you take a screenshot of your partitions in the "Disk Management"? (Right-click Computer then click Manage then Disk Management) for my reference please? I may have different than yours.

Will wait patiencely for your BIOS screenshots.

Thanks!
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
Find here a link to a PDF with screenshots, showing the main BIOS pages

Follow this and hopefully you should be setup for USB boot, and able to access BIOS from booting the computer, as the old days!
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
[MENTION=862938]Pip_X[/MENTION]

Strange, my 4.2GB recovery partition is AFTER the 450MB recovery partition.

I guess that's why my 4.2GB partition is not deleted.

I'm hoping I can delete all partitions except EFI and do a clean install again.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
That's right for Windows 8 but not windows 10
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
I'm on Windows 10.

Anyway I will try to format all the partitions except the 100MB EFI partition and do a clean install again.

I will update on my progress.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
I booted to Windows 10 setup with the steps I provided in post #25

I have successfully deleted all partitions except the first 2 partitions (System and EFI), and clean installed Windows 10 on the remaining space as a single partition.

C: drive is now 14.45GB

It's installed as a desktop initially like what [MENTION=4735877]jeebob[/MENTION] experienced, but I can install all the drivers I provided in the first post except for the graphic driver that is installed from Windows Update.

I now have fully functional tablet with clean installed and space optimized Windows 10.

Thanks a lot you all.

I have finally achieved my objective.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
After enabling CompactOS, I now have 7.02GB free out of 14.45GB in C: drive.

This is with only Windows 10 and the drivers installed without any updates yet.

Once I fully update the Windows I will report back the remaining free space that it got.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
Wait.... you mean that was NOT activated by default?

Really Microsoft? we have a total of less than 16gb and you don't deem it worthy to automatically activate that?

Gonna update my tab tonight and check for compact os.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
Good going pip, though if it installed as a desktop how did you manage to get the drivers installed? When I opened device manager there was no sign of any of the tablet oriented devices such as touch start, volume, accelerometer etc.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
@Haldi4803

Yup it's not enabled by default on my installation.

@jeebob

There's an unknown device on the Device Manager, it's actually some Intel IC stuff.

I just update the driver from the driver pack I attached on the first post, after that about 6 more new unknown device appear, and I did the same for those new unknown device.

After Windows fully updated, I still got 6.02GB. Maybe I shall install Office 2016 into it.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
Mine seems to have compactOS activated even tough ive never touched it.

P.S Pagefile is now reduced to 500mb ^^

So i have 6.1gb free of 14.0gb
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
@Haldi4803

You can disable hibernation too to save another 1GB, but I decided to leave it for the moment.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
Nope nope nope hell no!

If you check closely i had 1.8gb Pagefile for RAM and 280mh hyberfile, wich was broken.

Ive reduced the pagefile to 200mb and activated the working Hyberfile with powercfg -h size 100 to 100%. Its now 1gb.

If you check the Battery Report or the SleepStudy you see my Standby S0 drains way to much energy.

http://haldi.square7.ch/Public/XDA/Ployer Momo7W/

I've set the hibernation to activate after 60minutes Standby and hope that works now :)
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
Strange, on my installation, both pagefile and hiber.sys are 1gb each, which is fine.

Sorry [MENTION=3056043]Haldi4803[/MENTION], did you do a clean install or upgrade from the chinese Windows 8.1 Bing?

I strongly suggest a clean install.

After clean install, I can even set the resolution to the native 1024x600. The texts are very clear, sharp and easy to read eventhough the screen asset is smaller.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
You're right it looks better in 1024x600, I used 1280x768 with a custom 150% scaling.

The pagefile ca be automatically chosen by windows, I've switched that to manual 200 to 1024mb, its currently on 650mb size. As this is the RAM Overflow this depends on what programs you're gonna use. I only do light workload and nearly no Multitasking so I think I will be fine :)

I did a in place upgrade and wiped all data, so I think I should be safe?

The "doze into hibernation" is working fine now. The tablet shuts itself down and does not keep draining battery :)
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
Initially I did an upgrade with all data wiped, but it does not delete the recovery partition and it retained some files, mostly drivers.

Then I did a clean install as per in the post #41.

Now the tablet is working so fine exceeded my expectation that I wanna buy few more.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
not bad at all.

I referred a few posts ago to a buy on aliexpress. I received the USB adapter today and can confirm that I can now charge the device and use USB simultaneously.

An excellent result and a well invested few quid!

If only I had this when I was going for the reload, it would have been much easier!
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] skoda9635:
Hi mates!

I have accidentaly deleted a recovery partition without knowing what it does :D (I am so stupid) now I have a BSOD and I didn't made a backup so I can't recover my tablet. Can someone provide me with a clean recovery partiotion image ? so I can restore system through BIOS. I tried to install windows 8.1 with Bing through BIOS but it didn't found my USB key even though it was made bootable through Rufus. Did I missed something ? What am I doing wrong ? If I won't be able to find a solution I will not be giving a .... and I will try to install different OS to see whether it is possible.

I tried bootable USB with windows 8 x86 but the usual version, than usual version of windows 10 and now windows 8.1 with Bing which was originally installed. But my USB can't be found while having image of OS inside. But I had on it the recovery for linux and the bios was able to detect it :eek: It's kinda weird I think.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
Hi there, I've been searching the Net for some relevant info, and this seems about the only place that comes close too it. I've recently 'upgraded' my momo7w from win 8.1 to win10. The install succeeded (with the help of an SD card to go around the limit of the HD), BUT...while it now starts up as win10 (presumably), I can't do anything with it anymore. The touchscreen just doesn't work as it should be anymore, and I can't give it any input that way.

I guess it needs some drivers?

My question to you guys is: which drivers, and how do I put it on there, since I have no way to directly give any input to it through the touchscreen anymore. Must I install the drivers through my main PC (which runs vista, btw), and then make a connection to the tablet? Only... connecting the only (mini)usb there is on the momo7 to my PC gives nothing; my PC doesn't recognise the momo7. Does one have to install a prog on the PC first, so it's able to connect and transfer data to the momo7w?

Though I managed to upgrade it, I'm fairly new to all this, so any help is appreciated.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
Did you read all posts here? You need a USB mouse and there are touch driver attached to several posts here.

[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
Yes, well, I'm not sure I get that. I mean, I have an usb mouse, but what good is that, since the mom7w only has micro-usb, and, as I see it, it's an usb-charge. So where do I put my normal usb mouse in? And yes, I've seen some drivers being placed here, but it's not clear to me which one exactly I need, and more importantly: how do I get it on there? If you read my post, you'll have noted that win10 is on there, but now I can't give any input to it anymore. When I connect it to my PC, it just charges up, but my PC doesn't recognise the tablet and vice versa.

So *how* am I going to get the drivers on the tablet?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
pip, you seem pretty knowledgeable about the subject, maybe you can help me out.

As I've explained in my other posts; I've managed to upgrade win8.1 on my momo7w, but now *nothing* works anymore. I can't use the touchscreen to give any input, because it..well, doesn't work as it should. When I put the mom7w through the micro-usb (cable) in my main PC, it charges up, but there is no recognition of the tablet (aka, no data gets transferred). (I'm not even sure it can get data through, since it seems an usb-charge only). I've seen you adding certain drivers that may help out in this respect, but my problem now is: how do I install those drivers on my win10 momo7w, since I have NO input?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
Jup, because if you connect 2 windows computer with each other both will try to interact as usb host. You'd need some kind of special transfer software.

It's easier to use a USB stick and copy the files like that.

You will need a Micro USB -> USB Female Adapter, same as the USB OTG cables for all those Android smartphones to use USB sticks with them.

(Or Something like this:

)

Or you could try a Bluetooth mouse. You will just fail with the connection without way to interact ^^ USB is plug n Play.

You can find the Display Drives attached in the first post .7z is an archive format, you'll need the 7z tool.

There is a "Touch Screen Readme.txt" in the archive with following content:
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
(bold): Yes, but I still don't think I've made my problem clear. Say, I manage to put the files on a stick. I then, if I got that OTG cable (actually, I tried it wit a micro-usb-to-male usb and then a female-female usb connected together, because I had that laying around, but the mouse didn't work), plug the cable into the tablet, and thus, the stick is connected. But then what? Because, as I've said numerous times by now, I *can not* give any input to the tablet as it is now (aka; I can not type nor click on anything). That's because after the upgrade, the touchscreen does not work anymore. Even if the mouse would work, I can't use the stick anymore at that point, since there's only one (micro)-usb port. If I put in the stick, I can not give the command to transfer the files anymore.

I don't know...maybe I should just try to roll it back at win8.1, but I'm not sure this will work anymore, because here too: I can't give any input to it. Maybe with a factory reset? But how to do that on a momo7w? I've read up on it, and some say 'a little hole next to the micro-SD card where you can put a pin in to reset"...but there is NO little hole there. at that area. The only 'hole' I see, is where the red led light shines through, at the other side. But I doubt it's there I need to poke with a needle in. So... how does one factory reset it?

Alternatively: you speak about special transfer software, to go from my PC to the tabled. Is there any? I'd rather try that out first.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
If you have a computer and WiFi simply use the mouse to configure Windows Remote Desktop, or VNC, or Splashtop, or Teamviewer.

Then you can easily set up everythingvia USB stick.

Easier than buying a MicroUSB Hub with multiple USB ports.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
I had this issue also, don't worry. Just because the touchscreen is unresponsive doesn't mean the device is, what you are looking at right now is a monitor.

Use Any micro usb adapter and you can get control back.

You have two options, roll back to Windows 8.1 backups and rebuild windows 8.1 from scratch (then upgrading to 10 as I did) or, try the driver packages pip referred to and try recovering.

I highly recommend the adapter I linked to, it has changed the entire way I can use the tablet! For 8 pound, and allowing both charge and usb driving it's spot on.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
When u buy this tablet, it comes with a usb to microusb adapter.

Plug your mouse to this adapter, then plug the adapter to the microusb slot of the tablet.

Then install the drivers in the first post.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] dr.makoki:
Hello, regards from Sunny Spain.

Thanks for this great post, I am going to try the upgrade in my momo.

Just one question please, in the upgrade first step, you indicate "Full reset existing Windows 8.1". Do you mean returning to chinese language in the original windows installation??? It took me so much time to get the tablet in spanish language that it scares me returning to chinese.....
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
Well, things haven't improved since then, so to give an update: I tried to re-update the drivers, but now I,got a black screen. I think it still works (the tablet itself), since one can see a slight sign of it when touching and moving the screen... but basically you can't see squat anymore. So even with a mouse I can't do anything anymore, since there's nothing visible anymore.

I'm buying an micro-hdmi-to-hdmi adapter, and hope it's just related to (the drivers for) the screen, so I'll see what's happening on another screen.

That said, I'd prefer a complete reset first. How does one do a factory reset on this device, does anyone knows?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
Actually you dont have to. You can skip that step. But make sure you have the Windows 10 ISO in whatever language you want it to be.

When doing the in-place upgrade, selecting the option clear all data in the drive is preferred.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
No HDMI is needed.

Do you have a keyboard, mouse and bootable Windows 10 thumbdrive connected to a usb hub and the hub is connected to the tablet?

If not, you can not progress any further.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
It's all been ordered.

But I *do* think hdmi is needed. I mean, you *did* read that I can not see anything anymore on my screen, right? It's all black. Even if I had a working mouse, keyboard, etc., I wouldn't know where to klick, since I can't see anything anymore.

Unless, mayhaps, one starts with a factory reset.

Which, btw, I'll ask again: do you (or anyone else) know how to do a factory reset on the momow7?

Even if you think it's not needed, please humor me. I would like to know.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Haldi4803:
i think if you wipe the recovery partition while updating you cannot use factory reset.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
If you did not successfully install Windows 10 before and you deleted recovery partition, then you cannot restore to factory setting anymore.

Since you can see the mouse cursor means the Windows is able to boot, but not into desktop.

Connect everything, press F8 to go to safe mode.

From safe mode, boot to command prompt. Then d: , then setup.exe to load the Windows installer. Install Windows from scratch.

The 2 recovery partition at the end of the disk drive is not needed, no problem if you delete it.

BUT REMEMBER DO NOT DELETE THE FIRST 2 SMALL PARTITION (EFI and BIOS)

Once you have successfully installed Windows 10, you can do restore factory setting from within the OS, or from recovery mode, or from safe mode itself.

Windows 10 recovery do not use recovery partition anymore unlike Windows 8.1

I just reformat my tablet again for the November 1511 update with fresh install, and also installed Microsoft 2016.

With everything fully updated and compactOS applied, I still have 3gb free space.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] momo7wnoob:
Ok, thanks, I'll try that when my stuff arrives.

But, am I right to assume you (and the other poster) mean that there is no hard reset (you know, something with the buttons, or a pin/hole, etc.) to put the momo7w into it's factory setting?

Another question regarding your explanation; I note you say win10 doesn't use the recovery partition anymore, while 8.1 does. But the OS on my momo7w is, originally, win8.1. So shouldn't I keep the recovery partition? I mean, let's say the win10 stuff for some reason doesn't work (or I don't like it), wouldn't I need that partition if I want to revert to win 8.1?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] Pip_X:
Since Windows Mobile 2003, I dont think there's any device with OS that have this pin-hole factory reset.

Most android if you rooted and messed up the system files until cannot boot, you cannot do factory restore too, the only way is to reflash the rom.

Yes, if you want to revert to Win8.1, you might want to keep the recovery partition. However during my adventure with this tablet, restoring factory setting takes me back to Windows 10, I have no idea how to restore back to Windows 8.1

Anyway, unlike some other device, Windows 10 works so much better than Windows 8.1 on this tablet, I dont see any reason to revert back to Windows 8.1

USB bios problem

Good evening and Merry Christmas to all.

I have a problem with this tablet. I accidentally disabled the usb from bios and now I have no way to turn it back because mouse and keyboard do not work obviously. Is there any way to reset the bios?
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] jeebob:
I did this also, the way I recovered was to plug the USB keyboard, then boot into windows, and then access the advanced recovery, then the bios from there and you can use the keyboard to navigate to the BIOS options.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] curso:
Have a Momo7w clone (Mediacom W700, no hdmi win10 preloaded), same problem, USB port is not working at all and there's no way to use the bios setup with the touchscreen, only the power/up/down button works.

Any Ployer BIOS update so far? Looked for it but found nothing.
[Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.] curso:
Andreunto,

here's the solution for your problem.

1) download this file

hXXp://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/spp2v110.exe

it's a bios for another machine, you need only the flash utility.

2) Unpack the downloaded file with winrar, place the file ARSUS110.EXE on another directory, unpack only this file with Winrar. This is the most recent InsydeFlash utility that worked for me.

3) Edit the Platform.ini file in order to:

a) do not check the bios version

b) reset cmos

While editing, you can also unhide menu, choices etc... do whatever you prefer on this, if you understand what you do.

4) Place all the folder extracted from the arsus110.exe into a microsd card.

5) Open a command prompt with administrator privileges, and type

insydeflash.exe -G biosbackup.fd

your bios is dumped down to the file biosbackup.fd.

6) Once you got the bios file, start insydeflash.exe without any argument; on the window screen you can choose the bios file etc. Flash it back.

At the end of the flashing procedure, which in itself is useless, the Insydeflash utility WILL RESET THE CMOS SETTINGS (see point 3), that is the only thing you really need in order to get the tablet back as it should.

7) Restart the tablet and you're ok.

Note: if you get a newer Ployer bios file you can skip Point 5 and use the new one.
