I think I've made a huge mistake.
I just wiped my device in TWRP because the last CM Nightly I installed was acting up.
I went into TWRP, wiped and factory reset. I then rebooted and went into TWRP again.
I wanted to install CM 9.1, which I copied onto my 64GB SanDisk Ultra, and I was thinking to just flash it from the external sd.
I read somewhere on xda that I needed to maybe use a smaller SD card and have the format in FAT32, which I did, but TWRP still does not recognize them.
I am currently stuck with TWRP v2.3.1.0, no way to flash a new rom from a blank internal memory or an external memory.
I tried updating SDK and the most updated drivers for the device through the Device Manager and use "adb push" or "adb sideload" but the device is not recognized.
Can someone give me some kind of suggestion to solve this situation.
I’d suggest using a linux install to do the adb stuff if you’re not doing so already, no need for crazy windows drivers to see a connected device.

Windows 8 is a bugger to get drivers working properly.
Try and use a windows 7 machine or a friends laptop or try the following instructions.
Windows 8 Instructions
How to Disable Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows 8:
From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings (move your mouse to the bottom-right-corner of the screen and wait for the pop-out bar to appear, then click the Gear icon).
Click ‘More PC Settings’.
Click ‘General’.
Scroll down, and click ‘Restart now’ under ‘Advanced startup’.
Wait a bit.
Click ‘Troubleshoot’.
Click ‘Advanced Options’
Click ‘Windows Startup Settings’
Click Restart.
Ubuntu is a linux based Operating System, and can be used to do most things Windows 8 does, sometimes worse, sometimes better. So in this case, it's less trouble to connect an android device to a linux OS such as Ubuntu, as it can recognize a telephone without having to install drivers.
If you want to give it a go, you can install Ubuntu alongside Windows 8.
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/tired-of-windows-8-how-to-dual-boot-windows-ubuntu/
And then install Fastboot and ADB:
http://putokaz.wordpress.com/2012/08/29/install-adb-and-fastboot-android-tools-in-ubuntu-via-ppa/
But, I'd stick to Windows and follow the advice of Flumpster if you're not too confident installing a second operating system.
I can and have knowledge of installing another OS to run alongside Windows.
I use VirtualBox to run Mac OSX and Android. Can I run Linux on VirtualBox and do the process through that?
I am not quite sure what I should do after disabling Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows 8...
Yes, you can install Linux in a virtual machine - give it a try. If the device is still not recognized via OS running in the virtual machine, you can then always install to your hard disk and try that route.
The other option is to run Ubuntu as a live cd eg from the disk in memory (not install) and do it that way. I first unlocked and rooted my mobile this way. I can give more info on this if you like.

I think I'll give a multi-boot option a try. I've been wanting to install a different OS anyway since upgrading to Windows 8. Now I just have incentive.

Just a quick thought after re-reading your first post, I'd try a smaller sd card (16 or 32GB). I have heard of the larger faster cards giving some people problems.
Solved!
After trying to install Linux using Ubuntu 13.04 and getting more errors (something with the UEFI vs Legacy Boot installation), I decided to retry and find the original Windows drivers for the TF201.
I found one through Softpedia, downloaded it, used the "Have Disk" option when installing the yielded "Transformer" device in the Device Manager and sideloading the new CM 10.1 Nightly onto it.
Works like a charm!
Thanks everyone for the support!
Can't seem to get the apex drivers to load correctly under Windows 8. Also google them trying to find some but so far no luck. Any ideas how to get gtablet in apex mode where windows 8 64-bit might recognize it?

I don't think there are any since it is a legacy device. Best to use a live USB of Ubuntu 12.04 or even Linux Mint 15. Your PC should be able to boot off of a USB thumb drive if you set it up in DOS. You can partition the Thumb drive to keep the live session on one side and your recovery versions on the other, both fat32 format. Once you boot the tablet in apex mode you can connect it up and run the nvflash_gtablet.sh command.
Instructions on Linux NVflash HERE.
I remember having this problem and got it to work, sorry I'm not 100% sure but I recall having to restart in troubleshooting mode. I searched Google and this might help http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/vi...how-install-unsigned-drivers-windows-8-a.html

You need to install your drivers after letting windows install unsigned drivers (It's an advanced boot option)
Hello everyone,
I am having trouble with the new version of Remix OS 2 Beta.
I am running a 64 bit machine, and downloaded the correct version. I used the installation tool (not the original usb tool, but the one that allows you to install to the C drive) and it appeared that everything was installed correctly "BUT". When i boot i get the two options (Windows 10, Remix OS). I choose the Remix OS option, and it gives me an error (remixos/kernel error). So, i did some research and it says that the os might not recognize that i have a 64 bit machine. I then proceeded with the same installation but 32 bit this time since it should allow me to use that version if i have a 64 bit machine right? It allows me to boot, but then stays in limbo on the ASUS boot screen until i restart. any suggestions.
Have the same exact issue. Are you booting with legacy or efi

Take the intrid.img from the Android x86 project of 5.1.1 and replace that on the usb before install. Worked for me. Rinning Beta 64bit now wheni could only run 32bit before.

Run it off the USB. When option comes for resident or guest hit tab and add to the line (or e for edit) INSTALL=1
I have a 64 bit machine and it installed fine. I don't think I had to change any setting from the installer. Wouldn't work with the alpha but the beta installed and booted right up. When it was installing there was like an 8 minute timeframe where it seemed it wasn't doing anything and my monitor (an hd tv) was getting no signal but I just let it keep running and finally it came back on and it booted right up. I installed to the harddrive also btw.
Thank you all for your feed back. I will try some of your suggestions in the morning. I didn't think I would get a response this fast haha. Thanks again for now.

I tried both ways and and with efi just got the kernel issue. It seems that everything installed correctly but when I choose remix OS it tries to boot and I get the remixos/kernel error
This sounds exactly the same issue than I have with Dell Venue 11 pro (7140). It has Windows 10 installed and secure boot is disabled in BIOS. I can select Remix OS in boot menu but then the following errors are displayed Remix OS doesn't start:
error: 'ntfs' is already loaded.
error: 'exfat' is already loaded.
error: no such device: /RemixOS/kernel.
error: file '/RemixOS/kernel' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first.

So far nothing I have tried all of your guys suggestions and have had no luck. Maybe this version was released too early, because it seems like this is a major bug

If you would share some info with us, we might be able to provide a fix :
In Windows, open Run dialog. (Windows key pressed + r)
Type msinfo32 and enter.
You'll see a lot of information, please list the following :
1. System type
2. Processor
3. Bios mode
4. Platform Role
5. Secure boot state
6. Installed Physical Memory (Ram)
7. Total Physical Memory.
Also tell which version of beta you used. 32-bit or 64-bit?

You have as 64-bit capable CPU, as detailed on http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Atom-Z3736F-Tablet-SoC.122214.0.html
So 64-bit beta should work for you. Don't know why 32-bit UEFI systems have this issue.
However I'll inform you as soon as I update my Grub2Win guide.

I mounted the boot partition & checked it. In all my attempts at running the install tool, it never adds anything to the boot drive.
Please note, I am using a fresh installation of Windows 8.1. There are no security programs installed. Windows Defender is disabled. I have attempted installation using the built-in Administrator account, so there should be no permissions issues.
Can anyone tell me how to manually add the GRUB bootloader manually? I want to achieve what I have with my laptop (GRUB displaying "Windows/Remix OS"...and then Windows Boot Manager loads).

I had the same problem. I solved it by doing the following.
First, i tried installing some "Remix OS for PC Hacked Edition", and to my surprise, it worked. The OS boot selection, and the OS both worked well.
Then, I tried installing the original Remix OS again, with the normal method, I selected not to delete my data, and there was no error this time. I'm using it right now
Hello there
I just tried installing PrimeOS for the first time and I get an error message saying Disk service raised an external error Code: 2147024809
I'd like a solution to this problem please if one of the PrimeOS team can help
Another problem I got is after that error a part of my C/ partition where the prime was going to be installed is taken (the installation requires to shrink a part of the partition and it does so without even installing the system but the space is taken anyway) so far around 30 gigabytes are lost and i would like to know how to undo that.

If I change boot to Legacy, I get missing OS.
If I leave it as UEFI nothing happens from the USB, it's not even listed in the boot order.
I tried the Windows installer, it didn't work either.
Are you able to help again?

To make PrimeOS installation an easy then if you're on Windows UEFI 64-bit use the PrimeOS Installer EXE, and not its image file ISO.
Also make sure Secure Boot is disabled in Windows UEFI.

Hi All,
The installation of PrimeOS 0.4.5 was easy. It takes about 15min. on my Lenovo T410 laptop
My issues coming after that:
1.) See almost all WiFi around me except my Samsung S20 Plus 5G Portable WiFi. why?
I see all WiFi routers around me, but none of my WiFi hotspots (Samsung S20+ / Huawei P10 and P9).
I tried with my wife Xiaomi Note M10 phone and working...
Any idea why only MI 10 working?
I tried all frequency combination (2.4 or 5)
2.) Almost all my favorites games are not running. Application closed/crashed during loading. (e.g: Guild Of Heroes, State Of Survival , Asphalt 9, CSR2)
Any idea why?
