Thank you for downloading the Windows 10 IoT Core Insider Preview.  Windows 10 IoT Core is the version of Windows 10 intended for development of embedded or dedicated purpose devices and the choice for the Maker community. This package contains the bits and tools needed to install a pre-release of  Windows 10 IoT Core on the MinnowBoard Max based on Intel Atom E38xx series SoC (also referred to as MBM board) and the Raspberry PI2 based on the ARM Cortex-A7 based SoC (also referred to as the RPI).

NOTES
---------
The default administrator user name and password are hard coded in the Windows 10 IoT Core Insider Preview image. This is a security risk for the device, and it should not be exposed to an open internet connection until the password has been changed.

The Windows 10 IoT Core image included in this drop supports the peripherals that are exposed on the MinnowBoard MAX board. Subsequently, Intel® will provide support of the full feature set of the Baytrail processors including the Intel® Celeron® Processors J1900/N2930/N2807 and Intel® Atom® Processors E38XX. 

Windows 10 IoT Core is still being ported to the Raspberry PI. Support for audio input and output on the RPI is still under development and does not exist at all in this release. The video driver for the Raspberry PI is still under development, and it's performance has not yet been optimized. Animated user elements, such as XAML based drop down menus, in particular may display poorly.

Bluetooth connectivity is not fully implemented on either the MinnowBoard Max or the Raspberry PI2 for this release.

Wireless networking is not fully implemented on the Raspberry PI2 for this release.

KNOWN ISSUES 
---------


1.  The keyboard input may be lost when switching between multiple apps that are running at the same time. (1304429)
		WORKAROUND: Run one app at a time when using keyboard input.
2.  Some USB keyboards and mice may not work on the Raspberry PI2. (2365290)
		WORKAROUND: Use a different keyboard or mouse. This issue has been seen with a few specific models and is suspected to be a power issue with the USB port. This may resolve by using a powered USB hub.
3.  XAML WebView may not accept keyboard input (2477598)
		WORKAROUND: Use a different control to receive input.

		WORKAROUND: Manually delete the tab character.
5.  On a Raspberry PI, a single keyboard keystroke may either not be recognized or may insert multiple characters. (2573557)
		WORKAROUND: None
6.  Some Webcam drivers are missing. (2187095)
		WORKAROUND: None
8.  Logitech USB speakers may not produce audio output on an MBM (2460925)
		WORKAROUND: Use an alternate audio output device.
7.  A list of validated peripheral devices can be found on the documentation at http://WindowsOnDevices (2296724)
		WORKAROUND: Review the list of validated devices.
8.  Common Raspberry PI WiFi adapters are not supported in the Windows 10 IoT Core Insider Preview image. (2310140)
		WORKAROUND: Use an ethernet connection for networking.
9.  Wireless network may not reconnect after a power cycle on the Raspberry PI (2367736)
		WORKAROUND: Re-establish the WiFi connection.
10. WiFi/Bluetooth USB combo device may not work on the Raspberry PI or MinnowBoard Max (2293778)
		WORKAROUND: Use another hardware set.
11. USB based ethernet adapters may intermittently stall on the Raspberry PI (2459108)
		WORKAROUND: Use the on-board ethernet adapter.
12. Adding enterprise EAP WiFi profile may fail with EAP_E_EAPHOST_METHOD_NOT_INSTALLED (0x80420011) error on the MinnowBoard Max (1416414)
		WORKAROUND: none.
13. The MinnowBoard Max does not support all monitors, particularly some square monitors. (2222035, 2062893)
		WORKAROUND: Use a different monitor.
14. The video output on the MinnowBoard Max may crash after unplugging the HDMI video cable and plugging it back in while the MBM is 	running. (2096834, 2368396)
		WORKAROUND: Leave the HDMI cable plugged in while the MBM is running.
15. Touch screen input may not work on the MinnowBoard Max when connected to a touch screen monitor. (2171550)
		WORKAROUND: Use another form of input.
16. Videos may freeze when disconnecting or connecting a USB audio adapter on the MinnowBoard Max (2534527)
		WORKAROUND: Do not play video when connecting or disconnecting a USB audio adapter.
17. Some animated user elements may be slow to render and slow to respond to user input. (2643284)
		WORKAROUND:	 None.
18. The IoT Core Default Application may not display properly on a 1280 x 1024 monitor (2536713)
		WORKAROUND: Use a monitor with a different resolution.
19. DebounceTimeout in the GPIO API surface may not function (1874956)
		WORKAROUND: None
20.  Once the GPIO wake feature is enabled in the UEFI settings of Device Manager it may not be possible to toggle any GPIO outputs or read GPIO values using the GPIO WinRT APIs(1894235)
		WORKAROUND: Do not enable the GPIO wake feature in Device Manager.
21. The GPIO interrupt handler can drift out of sync with the actual state of the GPIO pins when a button is attached or when the interrupts occur at a faster rate than the system can process them.
		WORKAROUND:	Reduce the frequency of the interrupts.
