In a technical sense, Compressed OS = Wimboot. Windows 10 Tech Preview cannot update a Wimboot because you'd have to trash the Wimboot file (and maybe partition), then shove its own WIM file there.

That is a destructive install and you won't be able to revert back. As far as I know, you should be able to perform a Wimboot install of Windows 10 Tech Preview yourself.

It is all manual work but not horribly difficult. You just need another machine to build a WinPE boot device and a thumb drive store the Win 10 Tech Preview WIM file.

Hi I have a Linx 7 which I have installed Windows 10 January Technical preview. It work perfectly. Takes a bit of prep finding drivers, the main one being a specific wireless driver for windows 10, Linux standard ones must not be used as they cannot be updated. A Twin USB hub to Micro USB setup is needed and a USB stick prepared with Microsoft USB tool. You will also need a USB mouse. Boot from windows recovery advanced options. If you understand this you are ready to go if not then be couscous.

This root to install windows 10 requires a complete deletion of all partitions in windows setup you can try keeping recovery partition it is the one that is approx. 4gb I think again do some prep. I deleted this as well I have a back up Linux 7. I was able to install Win 10 TP 10059 (or the previous build to 10061) on a Winbook TW802, but the drivers and other support software didn't seem to be available, or the device was not yet supported.

I had to reinstall/recover it back to Win 8.1 Can we assume that tablet support will be improved as the TP continues? Or goes to release? I did try the TW700 which ran out of space the moment Win 8.1 installed updates, and I couldn't figure out how to use the SC memory to extend the hard drive into it.

The 700s are inadequate in the RAM and SC department! I'm am currently running Windows 10 Pro Preview Build 10130 on my Winbook TW700. I'm sure this will be the same process for the TW801 and TW101. To accomplish this task you must do the following (first get 3 at least 8GB USB drives). You also need a USB mouse and keyboard along with a 4-port hub). Make a recovery USB of your Windows 8.1 w/Bing installed on the TW700. Set this aside.

Create a driver USB by using another USB. Copy the folder c: windows system32 DriverStore to the usb. On another Windows computer download the 32-bit Windows 10 Preview ISO (most current build is 10130). On the same Windows computer go to the Microsoft website and download/install Windows 7 USB/DVD program to create a bootable USB. Plug in your last USB to this Windows computer and run the USB/DVD program.

Point to the ISO file that you downloaded and save to you USB. Please note the USB will be reformatted and a bootable Windows 10 image will be installed. Plug both the driver and bootable USB into the Winbook hub. When powering up the TW700, press and hold the F12 key.

After the Winbook logo appears a text box will appear asking what device do you want to boot from. Pick the bootable USB drive. Mine was number 3. Windows 10 will begin to install. A dialog box will open listing the different partitions. First delete all of them.

One will not be able to be deleted but it shows zero space. With this you are creating on big space for the W10 to install into. Continue with the install process.

After a short time Windows 10 will be installed. Please note only your kb and mouse will work as you now need to update the drivers. Open Device manager and then System Devices.

Winbook Drivers Windows 10

The first driver you need to update/install is the I2C Controller. This will find all of the hw devices on the Winbook that need updating. Right click I2c and then Update Driver Software. Click on browse and select the Driverstore folder you copied to the USB. You'll now see multiple devices appear with an explanation mark or unknown that need the drivers updated.

Go down the list and select those devices and update the driver following the above. You'll notice one of the display drivers will get an error, thats ok when you reboot it should be resolved. When all device drivers are updated, reboot the Winbook. You now have Windows 10 Pro Preview installed. At this time you change Lock Rotation and if you use if in Landscape mode open the Intel Display utility and rotate the screen 270 degrees. Apply any updates to Win10.
