1440133 2017-10-03 06:05:00 Hi All.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet, Model GT N8010 which has an SD 16 GB Drive. Is this easily replaeable with a bigger one. I read somewhere tht the SD is soldered in place, is that so? PJ

1440134 2017-10-03 06:16:00 Tablets don't have a standard removable style Hard Drive , they have chips soldered to the motherboard. Not really an option to replace. wainuitech (129)
1440135 2017-10-03 06:33:00 W..Ok I have a 64GB micro which I use in the tablet SD. EXT. I see that W8.1 is free. Can I reformat the 64GB I install W8.1 on it & make it a dual boot tablet Then upgrade it to W10. PJ Poppa John (284)
1440136 2017-10-03 07:43:00 Sorry PJ, cant answer that. I've never done or even tried it. Hopefully someone with more knowledge on Android tablets can help /Answer.

Having enough problems with SWMBO Tablet, shes got a 256GB Micro SD card almost empty, and wants to install ANOTHER crap game, moving some rubbish to the SD drive to make room. :waughh:

Windows will not run on those sorts of tablets.

1440138 2017-10-03 20:16:00 I see that W8 . 1 is free .

:)
Nope , not free .
There WAS a free upgrade from W8 to Win8 . 1 , but only if you owned Win8 .

As above , you cant install Windows on a Samsung Android Tablet . It has a CPU thats not compatible for a start

With tablets, you pretty much have to accept them for what they are .
Ive a Samsung 7" Tablet from the same era, I've started to get the issue where some Android apps wont install as its too old (Android version too old)

1440139 2017-10-03 23:38:00 Its possible using change my software 8 but you'll probably start asking questions that very few people could help you with if you do go that path. Kame (312)
1440140 2017-10-04 02:38:00 PJ, DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!

Or, if you do, don't come back here as we don't have that much life left!!.

1440141 2017-10-04 03:20:00 change my software 8.

does that actually work, anyone tried
I saw alot of claims its just a scam.

You'd need a CPU compatible with Win, else instruction set would be seen as nonsense ?
Windows Embedded,CE maybee ?

1440142 2017-10-04 04:15:00 MS are still working on it. W10 will be able to run on ARM processors, ( which most tablets use) bit like the Windows 10 S, its still under development. Windows RT was an example - didn't go to popular.

Bit more on it -- www.techradar.com

Looking on google, the change my software is rubbish and fake. To get the software you have to fill out surveys ( yeah right) and the technical side it wouldn't work anyway.
