HP offers both a driver pack and individual drivers on their download page for these tablets.since this is an UEFI system, I followed this page for configuring partitions, but doing that resulted in Recovery partition appearing as D: on the tablets, and being empty I only noticed that afterwards, so I didn't investigate (I never care about the original install - I booted the tablet directly to my 8.1 install USB, and did a clean install).

Microsoft's August updates made the tablets BSOD on reboot and either BSOD or freeze on shutdown (I'm not sure if the fixed updates they put out near the end of the month fixed that) without them, the tablets worked just fine.except for display driver, the other drivers were kept, so I only needed to add the display driver in WDS.It gives you 4 USB ports and an ethernet port (even if it's just 10/100, and connected over USB internally) First, I used one tablet to make a clean install of Windows 8.1 Pro (the client really should've used Enterprise, but that's what they got), then I sysprepped the tablet and captured an image of the install partition with DISM, and test-deployed it to a few other tablets. I just successfully deployed an image on 170 ElitePad 1000 tablets (it was my first time preparing an image, too).
