Drivers

It is critically important to install the correct drivers for this device if you are installing your own Windows 10/11 operating system. A full driver package is available here: link

The graphics card driver must be installed manually. Windows will not pick it up as needing to be installed because it will use a default driver. The driver is found inside the above package at VGA → win64 → Installer.exe

BIOS Releases

Contact jeremy@justicetechsolutions.com for access.

  • BIOS 3.11.X — State-specific BIOS releases that have default settings for specific state agencies. They are all built on BIOS 3.09.
  • BIOS 3.09.1 — Released for Securebook 6.1 devices. These devices have a new trackpad and keyboard, therefore the default setting in BIOS to turn off the trackpad while typing is DISABLED as it is no longer necessary.
  • BIOS 3.09 — New default password, based on BIOS 3.03. Also introduces 512-SHA password encryption and whitelisting of internal components.
  • MAJOR — BIOS 3.03 fixes some problems with Securebook 6 trackpads and keyboards. Securebook 6.1 has implemented a new trackpad and keyboard and fully fixed any mouse jumps or space bar issues.
  • MAJOR — BIOS 3.03 should have the default password changed as this is a publicly known password.
  • BIOS before 3.02 should be updated.
Keyboard and Trackpad

In the Securebook 6, the trackpad was recognized as an external mouse in Device Manager. This created an unfortunate behavior where light palm touches while typing would cause the cursor to activate and jump.

  • Securebook 6: We have available replacement keyboards and trackpads that must be physically installed.
  • Securebook 6: An update to BIOS 3.09 and EC 3.04 is available. This update turns off the trackpad at the BIOS level while the keyboard is active. If this causes specific software usage problems (inability to use keyboard and trackpad at the same time), the setting can be turned off or the trackpad replaced.
