Acer Iconia W510 | Demotion in Windows 8

I upgraded my Acer Iconia W510 at 10 Windows Tablet a few months ago. It was supposed to be all very well and all that, but when a month passed, funky things began to happen.

-The Tablet would break streaming

-Taskbar is almost always does not

-Entry is very slow and registry keys after 5 seconds.

-Graphics drivers are not compatible with Windows 10

I would like to go back to windows 8, but all windows.old and all other windows 8 file was deleted...

10 Windows will not let me downgrade, because it has been more than 10 days that I used it.

Is it possible that I can downgrade to Windows 8, or am I supposed to stay with a piece of a $150 of junk?

In your win8 device, you can create recovery media that will help you to re - install win8 in win10 machine, if the recovery partition is still intact.

  • No image with customized image of Windows 10 Acer Iconia W510

    I'm trying machines Acer Iconia W510 image with an image of Windows 10 we did. We have already photographed a few tens of individuals. A dozen, however, refuse to take the picture. They are currently on Windows 8. The image on an external hard drive that plug us into the USB port.

    The steps I take to the imaging process are as follows: "Change PC settings"->"update and recovery"-> "recovery"->"Advanced startup" and I click on the button 'Restart now', who sends me to a screen with three options, continue to windows 8.1, troubleshooting, and turn off your PC.

    I select 'Troubleshoot '->' Advanced'-> "Image system recovery"

    The Acer screen appears with "Preparation of the system image recovery" at the bottom. I sign in the administrator account when prompted to choose an account.

    A window appears and scans for images. I selected the "Select a system image" option and then select the correct image of Windows 10.

    Then, I select the only available option for "select the date and time of the system image to restore.

    After that, there is a message that says "for the restoration of this computer, needs of Windows to format the drive that the Windows recovery environment is running on." To continue with the restore, shut down this computer and it boot from a Windows installation disc or a disc repair system, then try the restore again. "At this point, I have no way to continue.

    Even if I plug the USB recovery drive we used, I get the same message. I don't know what the problem is or how to get past. Any help is appreciated!

  • Reboot Acer iconia W510 problem

    Every time when I start my Tablet (Acer Iconia W510) after the password a message saying something like a reboot is necessary due to some problems (the message and the Tablet works very well after that and I have not noticed any reboots after the password, but maybe before).

    In any case, the message said that the problems exist in the following files

    C:\Windows\Minidump\063013-12703-01.dmp
    C:\users\helja\appdata\local\temp\wer-31921-0.SysData.XML
    C:\Windows\MEMORY. DMP

    Also during the installation of some programs or updates and if the restart is required after installation of the tablet to the first encounters a problem and fails to restart at first but can solve the problem and Tablet so far started normally. (only a message that there are reboot problems but no precise information on the nature of the problem is given)

    Hi Kari,

    Thanks for the update.

    Sometimes, between the uninstalling and reinstalling software/drivers, it's a good idea to run the Windows Disk Cleanup utility. The disk cleanup utility to free disk space by deleting unnecessary files from your computer.

    Please consult the following link and remove some unwanted files:

  • Acer Iconia W510 won't batteries

    I got the W510 Iconia for a month or two, and I have a problem that the computer shuts down with no warning or anything.

    Me I found the problem, because it only happens when the battery in the keyboard is very close to 0% power.

    The thing is that there are 95% of the power of the Tablet battery, so it's as if the computer will not pass through one battery (the one on the keyboard) to the other (in the Tablet).

    I don't know if it's a Win8 parameter or if there is something I can do?

    It's really annoying, because it gives me only about 3-4 hours of battery life with the connected keyboard.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    "first of all use the docking station battery, and once she is discharged at 1%, it will move to the Tablet battery." Looks like yours does not commute. The question then becomes "where is the failover of 1%? If in the material, you have a defective unit. If the software, the issue would be to find.

    For me the easiest way would be to have a switch on the printed circuit relay (with perhaps a darlington in front but discrete components.) When a good dock is connected, the tension of mooring is used to change the power source to the dock. When the dock is disconnected or goes ded the coild is greater and the main battery is attached.

    The tab work main battery if you disconnect the dock?

    If she then just had a wall out - thought: If you go into control panel > power > open the current plan and select "advanced options" will open an "Advanced settings" list and you will have a number of options.

    I don't know if the battery of the dock is considered to be local but if a switching relay, I suspect it is. Note the switch designed ACER will be 1%. The setting of low battery on the laptop I have at the moment is low at 10% and 5% critical battery. It is possible to set the 'low battery action' to 'stop, sleep or into hibernation'.

    So it is possible for Windows power management be set so as to close the tab until it reaches the passage of 1%.

    Maybe worth a visit.

    PS I do not have to exhaust all the batteries completely. Personally would fix the passage will take place at 10% or more.

  • Iconia W510 hold the Windows to connect does not

    I have a W510 Iconia, I just put in place. I guess that after some windows updates the home screen has changed because now it's asking me to "and hold down Windows button and press the button to connect.» When I turned on the tablet before I could just slide the screen up and present the login screen. I do not have a keyboard with this tablet, and I can't get the sign on screen to display. No matter how I try, by pressing the Windows and then pressing the power button does nothing. Is there a way to get around this?

    Nevermind, I solved this. This is another way to say press ctrl + alt + delete to connect. I had to use the ease of access on the Welcome screen to bring up a keyboard on the screen, and then press ctrl + alt + delete keyboard on the screen to bring up the login screen.

  • Acer Iconia W510 Bios password forgotten

  • The wires for the Acer Iconia W510/W511 of power

    Hello.

    Is there anyone who had to take a closer look how the wires are connected to the 12V socket?

    Reason is, I would use the tablet in my garden, where the only power is my solar cell / battery of 12V of the summer.

    I know that I could rip it myself, but the Tablet is still under warranty, I think not only encouraged. Also I know that I can use a UPS, but a) my inverter is noisy and b) it's a bit silly to transform 12V-->--> 12V 220V

  • Iconia W510 is not compatible with Windows 10

    My 64 GB Iconia W510 runs all the latest drivers and updates available from Acer and Microsoft.

    I have the app get 10 Windows in the taskbar and planned to upgrade. When I check the compatibility of Windows 10 within the app, it says that my PC cannot install Windows 10. It says "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator - display will not work.

    Other users Iconia W510 know the same and what is Acer boards?

    After I started this topic I received an automated e-mail to the Board asking if she has not resolved since I got a lot of responses. No, it wasn't - but it is now.

    I applied all updates from Windows Update and now the app get Windows 10 says my W510 Iconia is compatible. Update problem solved. I am aware that there is still certainly a lot of things that need to be corrected with Windows 10, but the specific problem on this issue has been resolved.

    I thank all those who contributed and repost the link to ACE padgett for his answer to how to change the driver once the upgrade to Windows 10 is done:

  • Iconia W510 and Windows 8.1 RTM

    Hi, I tried to install Windows RTM 8.1 x 86 US of the official ISO image of Microsoft on my W510 Iconia (created the bootable flash drive), the installation worked, but the problem is that a lot of missing drivers or not after the initial installation.

    I tried to apply the latest pack of pilot of pilot site of Acer, which is designed for Windows 8, but after restarting that the Tablet is most likely stuck in infinity driver GPU reboot loop, all I see is black screen and start bar blinks every second.

    So the question is how to do a clean install of Windows 8.1 GTR on Iconia W510? Or should I wait until the correct driver pack for Windows 8.1 is out?

    Thank you

    I just want to jump in to clarify, Windows 8.1 is not released to the public and we don't post drivers or provide support for the operating system until it is officially released by Microsoft. Pilots and other media will be available on our support to http://www.acer.com site as soon as they are available after the launch.

  • Acer ICONIA and Windows 8

    I have an Acer ICONIA (Tablet double screen). What happens if I install Windows 8?

    Hi Roberto, hmm, the double screen Iconia is not part of the official Win 8 upgrade program. Thus there is no official support. That said, I can say I've seen a preview version to win 8 running on an Iconia without problems.
