Sunchip CX-W8 (Z3735F)

[ravideep]

Anyone tested this ?

So, this is for the W8, that has dualboot. Like this one

I have tested this on my W8 and it works perfect.

i flashed mine aswell and it works like a charm. Much more bios settings, just like cx-w8.

Although when i flashed the bios, windows found aditional devices. 3 axis sensor was no problem to get drive for.
But when i enabled the otg usb, i get this device with no drivers...

Anyone has any ideas where to get drivers for this ?

[hojnikb]

Another thing i noticed...

Now that 3-axis sensor is detected by Windows, WUDFhost process eats quite a bit of CPU. Almost 40%.

This is fixed by disabling the said sensor in device manager.

Wierd.

So, i've updated the driver package to include the sensor drivers and the new BIOS.
3-axis sensor driver no longer causes cpu load. Using HP's driver solved that.

I have the dual boot Wintel w8 box and i've somehow messed around with the drive partitions to the point where it will now boot into the BIOS but wont recognise any Windows installation USB drive. Is there any chance i'll be able to bring this box back to life, or have i basically bricked it (because i cant boot Windows, Android, or get it to see any installation media).

Is there any way i might be able to use to OTC usb port to revive it?

Thanks for any help

R u able to boot into Android or not?

[emmathon1]

I can't get it to boot to android or windows or see a windows installation usb. I can literally only get to BIOS screen. I made the usb installation with the settings in the first post with Rufus and Windows 8.1 generated with the Microsoft official tool.

Thank you for helping

No need to make usb with rufus if you are using microsoft official tool. Try this- Repeatedly press F7 when you switch on your box and then select UEFI:USB from there. It should start windows installation.

If not then try another method-
If you are still not getting installation for any reason and your box is keep booting in android then here is one more solution.
There is one reset button behind audio jack of your TV box.
Shut down your box
You need to press that reset button (with help of tooth pick or any similar thing) along with power button and keep pressing reset button until you see dual boot screen (same as above picture)
Select Windows icon and hit enter. Hopefully you are now installing windows

Re-install Windows? Use Rufus for USB stick but Must select MBR Partition Scheme for UEFI (only!) and FAT for your USB build
