Beware there are no Linux kernel drivers for the hardware in this machine, so you're stuck with windows for now. You won't have Wi-Fi, and can't have Wi-Fi, until that gets updated.
Just go into settings\recovery\reset and click on "reset this PC". Choose the option to remove everything and let it reinstall. It will use the same key.
I have 3 of these machine for the office, they work tremendously well for it. Office/Excel/Browser. Super fast and clean, just BE AWARE to re-install windows.

These machine comes with a default windows 11/10 but there is a software that comes with it, that you can see it under START UP services. I forgot the name but please make sure you reinstall windows.

I run windows and use a nuc for everyday browsing and office tasks. How does beelink compare to intel nuc? Intel regularly pushes bios updates etc so I can rely on them. Just wondering if beelink is responsible or will be gone soon?

Big fan of this mini-PC. However, this is not the lowest price I see for the Beelink S12 N100 on Amazon. Been tracking the price, with (and sometimes without) coupon on page you should be able to find for $159.

I'm looking for something around $100 to run Batocera, is this good or is there a cheaper option?

I believe you're referring to the burn-in test process. Just disable it from startup and u should be ok. Currently using this very same machine without issue. The 6W TDP is pretty awesome, can barely hear the fan even under heavy load.

Exactly that one. Burn in process. I just reinstalled windows just in case. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I still recommend a clean Windows install as a good practice (though "clean" doesn't mean much with Windows 11 now, but I digress.)

They have almost the same CPU performance but the n100 has a much better built-in GPU and uses much less power.

Yes. It's an Intel AX101 wifi/BT. It's too new. If you're a Linux wizard I believe you may be able to get the wifi working but the bt is still a no go.

No doubt. I read in a tech newsletter yesterday that if you choose "World" instead of your country when setting Win11 up for the first time, they can't target you with the bloatware and you'll have a much (not completely) cleaner experience.

How do you reinstall Windows? Don't you need to purchase a new product code?
