Uprev in dell Tablet running windows 8.1

martin82 · 10-14-2014, 08:11 PM

Most tables I found don't have full usb port, so ordered a mini adapter for few bucks only. U dont want windows RT, Windows 8.1 works perfect.

I ended up picking up a 2nd cheap netbook asus touch screen only $249 at best buy, runs windows 8.1

I have a similar setup with a Dell Venue 8 running full 32bit Win 8.1...can confirm Ecutek works perfectly through it. Using an OTG mini to full usb and then a usb 2 port splitter to power the OBD cable and the key fob.

I went out and bought me a Toshiba Encore. I haven't played with it yet, but I have downloaded Osiris.

I recommend the biggest tablet you can find. I have the Venue 8 and it's a pain to check all the proper boxes when trying to data log. I assume it would also be a pain to tune with one my size.
