    Where to download Windows 10 Media Creation Tool: www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
    Most all drivers install from fresh Windows 10 install. You only need a blank 4GB USB drive to perform this upgrade.

      It's good to know that it's simple. What also can be taken away from this is that being able to boot USB opens the ability to install something other than Windows. Can secure boot be disabled? I'm leaning towards not using Win 10.

    The Phawx, I have just ordered a GPD Win 2 and have bought a 512gb SSD from Transcend. The cloning software you mention, does it keep the partitions at the same size or scale them?
    ie would a 100mb partition on the 128gb remain as a 100mb partition or would it scale up to 500mb during the cloning? Cheers

    Hello!! I have a problem with GPD WIN 2 After removing the SSD, it does not turn on, the first time I could hardly start it, from 100 times.
    I changed the thermal paste.
    After turning on everything was fine, there were no jambs.
    Now I took off the SSD and put it back and it does not turn on again, I insert a peak-peak beep into the socket, a light bulb blinks

  • @BrianCroweAcolyte
    @BrianCroweAcolyte 7 лет назад

    I wouldn't worry about the SSD getting hot. NAND loves being warm, it's only the controller that wants to be cool. Idk about that particular SSD model/brand but more than likely the controller will throttle to avoid damage if it starts getting too hot.

    6:10 "Thunderbolt(TM) Configuration" does that mean the win 2 has a thunderbolt port? If so, could you test it with an external GPU? Lenovo has just announced a tiny gtx1050 egpu dock with thunderbolt 3 at CES 2018, that would be an awesome combination...

  • @DKTronics70
    @DKTronics70 7 лет назад

    Create a Acronis Recovery USB Stick on your desktop PC, boot this on the GPD Win 2, and backup the M2 to a external USB hard drive. Most USB HDs are 500Gb to 1Tb, cheap, and plenty of space to create a backup. Replace the M2 with the newer one, boot the Acronis recovery stick, and install your backup to the new M2. I do this for family and friends who want a bigger desktop M2/SSD drive and want to keep their current Windows.

After I copied the files and everything to the USB, (yes I even used double driver) put the new SSD in, held delete, and it was nothing like that showed. Screen didn't go to portrait mode, and the "chipset" option wasn't even there. I'm still having trouble with it.

    I don't get it, is there Windows activation code for Win 2 in the retail box or you have to get a key on your own?

    • @AvatarEquis
      @AvatarEquis 7 лет назад +2

      It comes in the retail box. However, you don't usually need to add it again when reinstalling as Windows 10 activation records the details of the device it was first activated in. This however only works swiftly if you have it tied to a Microsoft User Account. If so, you just can just install, skip adding the key and then click activate once you have finished the reinstall. It will reactivate right away normally as it is the same device it was originally installed in. If you don't have it tied to a Microsoft User Account. Then you might be forced to input the key again.

    • @BrianCroweAcolyte
      @BrianCroweAcolyte 7 лет назад

    • @Drebin2293
      @Drebin2293 7 лет назад

      Then why did they force 2242 sata mode only with the b key? They make small msata to 2242 b key adapters. That would be the "future proof" design. Give us msata now so we don't have to pay through the nose and hunt forever for large capacity drives, and since msata is larger than 2242 that'll let us place an adapter in there with no issues. www.amazon.com/QNINE-mSATA-Adapter-Support-Converter/dp/B01NAHV4EM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1515905066&sr=8-3&keywords=m.2+to+msata+adapter

      When did he say he paid for it? I mean I don't know for sure in Phawx's case, but usually a company would give them the product in return for exposure to their audience, and Phawx being the biggest English speaking RUclipsr in the GPD community, he was the natural choice.
      I don't doubt Phawx is buying and probably already preordered the Win 2, but he was given an early sample because of who he is in the community. If it was anyone else asking GPD for an early prototype they would more than likely be turned down.

    • @Faust.layout

      It should work in desktop mode. My laptop (i5-3210M, 4GB ram, HD 4000) can run it at 30fps but crashes sometimes because of low amount of ram but that wouldn't be a problem on the Win 2.
