SEI 10 i5-1035G4 Upgrade Windows 11 to 22h2

scwissel

Has anyone successfully upgraded their SEI 10 with Windows 11 Pro already installed to 22h2?  I want to know if I'm in for headache before I tell Windows 11 to apply this update, as I've read some older posts that seem to indicate driver issues that look unresolved.

I  installed it ok I did have some problems with my drivers however I do not know if it was the update that caused it or if it was something i did I had to reinstall the driver and the only driver I could find that worked was the one I found here at AMD believe it ok but I am not if it is the latest and greatest driver

I just realized yours is an intel based machine the driver i used is for an AMD which will obviously not work sorry

I created a recovery USB to give another option to rollback and proceeding with the 22h2 upgrade.  I'll reply back once completed.

Upgrade from Windows 11 Pro from Bee-Link to 22h2 went fine.

My SEi10 (i1035G1), on applying the Windows 11 22H2 update, lost its TPM entirely. It disappeared from BIOS (and also therefore of course from Windows). There is no software "downgrade" for this - something about Windows 11 22H2 booting up caused the TPM to fail completely. Therefore, Windows complains of a missing TPM; Microsoft accounts don't work right; it's a disaster. It's been six weeks since this happened.
I'm in contact with Bee-link "support" who is dragging their heels in even sending me the same BIOS version to try re-flashing it (since this model's TPM is a BIOS TPM, not an independent hardware module). I don't know what Bee-link's problem is, that they usually refuse to make BIOS images available (unlike every other manufacturer which makes BIOS images available by default).
Bee-link have offered to exchange my SEi10 Intel i5 i1035G1 mini-PC for an SER series with an AMD CPU of comparable specifications, which will require cross-shipping the PCs to/from China, so I'd really prefer to just get the BIOS image from Bee-link to try re-flashing to see if that works around the problem, to avoid all the drama of shipping.
I am very unhappy with Bee-link.

Hello there,
Sorry for your trouble.
We are searching the solution about that now.
If we have done it successfully,we will send you the bios at once.
Hope for your kind understanding.

Support-03 thank you, but, I have repeatedly asked support to send me also the CURRENT BIOS for my SEi10, that is, the SAME BIOS which came installed on it. This is not something that should need to wait for engineering - just send it to me; this is free - it takes only a moment for Bee-link, and only a few minutes for me to test, to see if re-flashing the same original BIOS gets the TPM to come back. Why does Bee-link refuse to provide a copy of the original BIOS? It's very frustrating, and very disappointing in the Bee-link brand!

n.b. support have now emailed me A BIOS, but it is the wrong one - it is one version OLDER than the BIOS which had originally come installed on my SEi10.
I still need a copy of the BIOS version IB1V103 for the SEi10.

Further follow-up - Bee-link claims that IB1V103, the version that came installed on my SEi10 i1035G1 mini-PC, "is not available".
That, combined with some very not-production settings that I found in the BIOS, suggest to me that this model was never really ready for commercial release. It's very disappointing.
Beelink are now offering to replace the computer with a different, more powerful model; I'm negotiating the logistics to make sure that I don't risk getting screwed. I can't recommend this brand.
