No monitors/video Windows 10 Creators Update

Hello,

Unlike more recent generations, these products aren't firmware updated in the field.
Removing chips from the PCB won't change how the product was programmed to start. It would need to go to the manufacturing location of whoever made the product, then new firmware configuration programmed with specialist software, after its been designed all that for a product designed ~10 years ago so probably not being manufactured anymore.

The HP HSTNN-S01X is more than 10 years old. It's difficult to blame someone for not having predicted what Windows would become 10 years later. Windows 10, its strategy and features wasn't know at the time when Windows XP was king.

Kind regards,
Alban
