I finally got somewhere with this!
I have worked out a way for a Win7 config with an N-1030 chip to use PROSet and Dashboard installers with the same version number of 15.2.0 to get a Full Dashboard. Check out my post for details:

Win8 can try the same procedure but with v 15.5.6 or v15.6.0 of both files. Download links are in my post (see link above). However, word is that Win8 does NOT support hotspot at this stage no matter what. An Intel rep said new software is in the works for Win8 (no mention of Win7), but no release date. Still, v16.1.1 and 16.1.3 are now available. Maybe they manage to support Hotspot for Win7, Win8 or both?
Any Intel rep want to say anything about this?
