Hello,

Query regarding - Acer Aspire Switch 10E

I've been experiencing problems imaging this laptop with a zalman. Even after changing the boot order the device boots straight into windows.

Has anyone successfully imaged one of these devices? If so, do you have any recommended method to go about it?

Many thanks,

Martin

How are you trying to boot it?
What are you trying to boot?

I believe the thingy is UEFI only, and 32 bit UEFI, while at it

You might want to prepare a "dedicated" USB stick with a WinFE of some kind (or a UEFI bootable Linux) or use a "real" USB CD-ROM drive (but remember that as well the media needs to be UEFI (32 bit) bootable).
