Thanks to Excellator for the instructions on driver install.  I really am a techno biff but am now the proud owner of a Play Store app on my 10b G3 (in the UK).  So truely anyone can do it.  Patience is the key.  Some experiences I had I would like to share;

In preparation I noted the build standard so I had the correct driver in mind Win 7 32Bit.

Placed the update from the Kasty file on the desktop.

Chose the correct size pin for the reset hole (you can feel a rocker depress whilst entering recovery/flashing mode).

Changed the device installation settings as descibed in the trouble shooting section of the Rockchip Flasher Tool.

Followed the instructions, but every time I tried to enter recovery with the tablet off it started coming on.  Therefore as others had done I tried it whilst on, saw the volume go up as the + vol key was depressed then inserted the pin and low and behold the screen went blank after several seconds.  At the same time saw a pop up on screen that told me a USB device wasn't recognised.  Went into device manager and found an unrecognised device but this wasn't under the USB's but elsewhere highlighted with a little yellow triangle then proceeded to load the driver .  Didn't work the first time as I had unloaded the driver to my desktop but the drver search only went as far down as folders not files.  Placed the driver back inside the folder and tried again and asked it to load from the driver folder; lo and behold it started loading.

After a little jig of appreciation (was this premature?) I continued to follow the instructions.  Download started and finished minutes later, tablet sparked into life and having gone through all the custom set up on the Arnova there it was the "Grail" - Play Store.  Downloaded the Mrs's fave TV app and the whole expense of the purchase was justified as I had promised her.

Apologies if this was simplistic but that's me.  But if I could say thanks to (if you can use this term in a friendly way) the geeks out there who developed this firmware update.

With regard to Gouranga well theres over 110 years between us.  A challenge to you young uns if ever I saw one .

the driver folder that you are talking about,which file is this located in the rock chip folder that we download??? where did you get it as the driver that we are told to download for the rock chip programme is a iso file and it wont be recognised ? can you post a link to the file you are talking about as i am going round the ben trying to get this working on my arnova 10b g3

I don't know if this will work as I haven't tried it before. If it works it will be screen shots of where to find the driver...

A big thanks for all the help u guys and galls gave me in figuring out just how thick i am lol, totally misread the instructions.....doh!  to many long shifts at work hmmmmm

Glad you finally made it.

I am just curious what which part of the instruction you missed and eventually need to be clarified ?

Cheers.

Mate the part with the reset and vol+ did not work at all for my tablet, so i had to go into devices and printers and find the unknown device and go into the drivers and manually update them and load win7 driver into rockchip for it to recognise it and it was done in 5 mins after that.

many thanks for help much appreciated
