Dual boot windows by following these instructions:
Create a new partition on your hard drive using the Windows Disk Management Utility.
Place the DVD or USB containing the new version of Windows in your PC, then reboot the machine.
Install Windows 10, being sure to select the Custom option.
Select the newly created partition as the destination for Windows 10. Then click Next to install the operating system.
Check Dell Inspiron 1545 Manual to know How to dual boot Windows: In detail.

Trying on Acer Iconia W4-820, any help?

So, here is my tablet condition:
1. UEFI
2. Windows 10 32 bit
3. 64-bit Processor
4. Secure boot already off
RemixOS version I use : 64bit Beta version (with UEFI compability)
Installed it using "official procedure tool'.
What have I try to do and what happens after it:
1. Installing remix OS via installer provided on Hard Disk (C: drive only available with 7GBs of free space)
a. Rebooting using provided reboot message from installer
Result : rebooting automatically to win 10 without boot option.
b. Rebooting using "shift + restart" (Advanced Startup)
Result : When choosing "boot from a different place", there is "Remix OS" listed alongside with "EFI USB", "USB CD", etc. But, when I choose Remix OS, it runs straight to windows 10 instead (no error or anything else, just boot through it).
2. Installing Remix OS via installer provided on USB drive (32GB)
Same result with point 1a and 1b.
Other options I have "tried":
- I have tried installed using EasyBCD, but turns out it doesn't provide much compability with UEFI boot mode.
- I tried using easyUEFI, but since I don't have any FAT32 drives (my SD Card is exFAT formatted, and C: can't be partitioned using partition manager tool), it doesn't help me.
- I tried using the grub2win option, but since my windows version is a 32bit one, grub2win can't run.
- There is no option to turn the UEFI BIOS mode to legacy.
Question:
- Why the booting runs straight to windows, without even showing any boot options?
- Why the booting still runs straight to windows even after selecting Remix OS from advanced startup boot?
- Any options left for me to try?
You can not run any 64 bit OS on this Tablet. Because UEFI only support 32 bit OS. Many Bay-Trail tablets has this limitation.
I agree here,baytrail is generally 32 bits

Search for Windows boot fix on google
Boot from the windows installation DVD, when it finish loading files choose your language and click on repair, it will load some time when it finish go to prompt command and enter the following commands (without (enter) ):
Bootrec /fixmbr (enter)
Bootrec /fixboot (enter)
After that make a restart and try boot into windows.

I think you corrupted the MBR (Master Boot Record) while installing remix os......
Does Remix OS boot??? Is it installed on a separate hardrive?
A standalone HDD i mean

I only have one HDD in my laptop. I created two partitions for windows 10 and remix OS each (the HDD have more than 2 partitions, I think the rest are for recovery). I can still boot into remix OS through the grub (or whatever the bootloader remix os installed). load the windows 10 from external drive and repair MBR? thanks. is this the easy way to go? can I repair MBR from other means? (I only have one windows 10 machine and current external booting drive I have is the original HDD loaded with windows 8. My current one is a SDD) thank you!

Bro If you want to Repair MBR (Master Boot Record) then you will have to insert A Live Windows 10 DVD and proceed with installation and choose repair option....that should do the job

Dual boot RemixOS & Windows 10 on touch tablets

Hello everyone and thanks for these great releases!!
I have a Lenovo miix 700 Windows based tablet, and I'm interested in a dual boot with RemixOS and Window 10 using the touch screen only, without the keyboard.
I have RemixOS efi folder extracted and running on the same partition of WIndows (C: ), and I can boot through UEFI normally.
THe problem is - this requires to enter the BIOS in order to chose UEFI OS, which means requires having the keyboard attached to enter the BIOS settings. and being a tablet, I don't have the keyboard with me all the time.
I'm looking for a way to boot into RemixOS from Windows 10, without the need for the keyboard, by using a batch file script or any other application available that will restart the device and boot directly into RemixOS.
I also want to keep both Windows 10 and RemixOS on the same partition , without the need for a separate partition for RemixOS
I know that devices based on Legacy can use easyBCD and iReboot to achieve this, but I couldn't find an equivalent for UEFI bios.
Maybe using METRO boot manager and add an entry for RemixOS? IS it touch enabled?
I'd be grateful for any help to achieve this! Thanks in advance!

Hi, you can check this link:
http://www.easyuefi.com/index-us.html
easyuefi not running well in Win 10 Anniversary Update. I prefer grub2win
any news or tuto to easyboot on win10 tablet without keyboard ?
thanks is advance for your help
That's something I've been trying to get to work in the past days!
I've shrunk my C Partition and created a new one with 16GB formatted in FAT32 for Remix OS.
Extracted the ISO and copied the files onto the new partition.
Added a new entry with easyuefi (Type Linux/other OS pointing to the efi\boot\bootx64.efi file on the new partition)
Created a shortcut for the advanced start %windir%\system32\shutdown.exe /r /o /f /t 00
BUT Remix OS doesn't boot in resident mode (it get's stuck on the Remix OS boot logo) ... in guest mode Remix OS boots just fine!
I don't have an idea why this is happening and how to solve this one ... maybe someone like @RemixOS_Jason does
http://support.jide.com/hc/en-us -> Submit an idea (feature request) and ask them for a touch supported bootloader

Remix OS does not use Windows Boot Manager. Instead uses gray boot screen :(

Remix OS is supposed to use the blue Windows Boot Manager, correct?
But on my Windows tablet (Lenovo Miix 700), I always get a gray boot screen which asks me to choose "Windows" or "Remix OS".
If I select "Windows", then it will load the blue Windows Boot Manager screen (without the Remix OS option).
Can anyone explain what's going wrong?
How can I force Remix OS to use the actual Windows Boot Manager?
The reason I want the actual Windows Boot Manager is because it's easy to customize the countdown timer & boot preference. With the current gray boot screen, I can only edit the timer by mounting my boot partition & editing complicated files.
OS: Windows 10 Pro x64
Bios: UEFI with Secure Boot & Fast Boot disabled.
Remix OS version: Latest (3.0.207)
Installation method: Remix OS For PC "Installation Tool" (16 gb chosen, targetted to 20 gb NTFS partition, drive letter "R:" assigned)
Okay, I discovered the solution. You can read the quoted posts below. It is not possible to add Remix OS as an option in the Windows Boot Manager...if the Windows OS was installed in UEFI.
I don't know why this isn't made more public.
I wasted so many days trying all sorts of experiments, and thinking something was wrong with my system.

UEFI WBM can't load anything other than windows bootloader; so it can't chainload grub2. It does however see any /efi folder as a seperate UEFI [usb] device.

If Windows was installed in BIOS mode, you get the Windows boot menu which is touch compatible, but if Windows was installed in UEFI mode, then the Windows boot menu can't be used to load non-Windows operating systems (thanks Microsoft) and so you get the non-touch grub boot menu. Annoying, I know, and it's the reason I ended up rebuilding my Lenovo Thinkpad Helix in BIOS mode, despite the slower boot process.

I screwed up,please help

So i tried to dual boot with remix OS on my PC,i am running windows 7.
the dual boot didn't work,whenever i choose Remix Os it started to boot and then crash.
So i decided to remove Remix Os,in my frustration however i just right-clicked the os file in the partition i created and deleted the whole file not using the unistall feature.
Now when i open my pc it asks me whether or not to run Windows 7 or Remix os.
Does someone know a way to remove that,like make my pc realise that Remix os doesn't exist or choose windows 7 by default?
