When installing drivers manually, it's always a good idea to install the chipset ones first, as they sometimes, present other, 'software devices', that need to then be installed afterwards. Sound is generally a standalone driver, though, as is the graphics. Card readers, touch screen, etc. are usually associated with the mainboard, i.e. chipset drivers.

Most of the modern internet uses SSL, which is time and date sensitive. If the local time is way before or past the SSL cert's valid before date/expiration date, then you get an error. Windows does use internet time servers to keep their times correct, however, if the local time is drastically different from that of the NTP (time) server, then it won't update (there would probably be a log entry in Event Viewer about this). So by manually adjusting the time, everything starts working again as normal. So if you ever have another computer that you fix, I suggest that the first thing you should do once you get it up and running is to check that the date and time is correct. Will save you from dealing with odd issues that you would not normally suspect are date/time related.

Leave a device like that unused and the real-time clock / management circuit will drain the battery until the battery's internal protection circuit cuts power. In that state, the battery management will basically act like a diode: letting charge coming in but nothing coming out. That's why you got 0V at the initial battery measurement. In this state, the device sees no battery management and will only perform a trickle charge. After some time, the cell's voltage raises enough to wake up the battery management. It will talk to the device and it will start normal operation: start fast-charging. Previous owner probably did not try long enough with his 3rd-party power supply, or his 3rd-party power supply just didn't have the right plug, voltage, or polarity. Good that you came to the rescue, because if the cell voltage drops really low due to self-discharge and time, the battery management will permanently disable the battery's ability to be charged forever, for safety reasons. After that point, reviving the battery by opening it and charging the lipo cell directly can be dangerous: at very low voltage, internally, it chemically forms solid structures that can penetrate the isolation and it can cause an internal short. Maybe not right then and there. It can also short after some charge cycles. A short wouldn't be an issue on a totally empty cell. But if that cell has a decent charge in it when it shorts, it will be a very energetic event: it will locally destroy the internal structure, create an even 'better' short, heat up and boil the flammable electrolyte. The pressurized electrolyte gas will burst though the hot weak spot. The short's sparks will ignite the gas. There's already an oxidizer present in the cell, so no oxygen needed. It will act like a mini flamethrower that cannot be put out easily. It will just ignite everything in its reach, including eventually your whole house, if you're not there to toss it out.

The reason it took so long for the battery to come up from being 100% discharged to 0v is because you have to slowly trickle charge lithium cells to their lower working voltage when they are discharged to 0v. The battery protection circuitry automatically does this, usually charging between 20-100mA until the battery reaches its lower working voltage rating, usually somewhere between 2.0-2.5v. If you smash a lithium cell with full battery voltage when completely discharged, the battery can be damaged from the heavy current draw, and potentially go on fire. Even if it doesn't go on fire, the damage caused can make the battery unstable and potentially have a catastrophic failure later. As for the reason why the battery is completely flat, it could be that the laptop discharged it with parasitic draw, or it could be that the battery is internally failing and has a short between the plates somewhere. You can see if the battery has internal parasitic draw by charging it, disconnecting it from the laptop and measuring the voltage. The voltage should stay steady, if it starts dropping immediately, the battery is bad and should be replaced. And about "3rd party chargers" DON'T BUY THEM OR USE THEM. ALWAYS GET OEM CHARGERS. No, they are not anywhere near as good as OEM. Many of them are fire hazards and often can kill your equipment because they're built so poorly. If you see a laptop charger with words like "REPLACEMENT AC ADAPTER" and it feels light and cheaply made, throw it away. If OEM is not available, buy one of the brand name universal chargers, not the crap from Amazon. Yes, they are a lot more expensive, but you're buying quality and don't have to worry about your laptop being killed by a shoddy adapter, or that the shit adapter will burn your house down. Sometimes you can also get away with using an OEM adapter for another laptop, just check the voltage and amperage. Many laptop OEMs use the exact same vendors of laptop power bricks and just change the label on them.

In this situation with dead tablet, quicker to put some power straight into the battery after seeing its down. THEN allow the computer to take the lead in charging activation and level increase and all should be good. Some of these batteries just seem to discharge for what ever reason. If the computer is working ok but multiple driver type things are not working, yes, its likely drivers and windows wasnt enough with their built in drivers and a trip to the website or even their update program to detect and download what this product needs can be useful but you will need to download that program at least. Yeah injecting some amps just for 1 min usually is enough for the circuit to turn back on and power up and start charging. Do this basic stuff first before tracing faults as its very common on so many i have worked on. You can also bodge up a modest charging circuit directly to the battery from the port if that circuit goes out too.

This is likely powered by an Atom SOC. I have several of these little 2-in-1 with detachable keyboards, very nice little tablets, Dell, Acer, Asus. The difficulty is that the Atom SOC is apparently somewhat non-standard compared to the average PC. Every time Windows 10 goes through a major update, i have problems with trackpad, Wifi, audio or touchscreen. The trick is that there is an Intel driver that needs to be installed first, then Win10 update can take over and finish the job. I now keep a copy in a separate folder on the local drive and just install it right after a major Win10 update. No problem ever since. It's available from the vendor. On the Acer it's named "Platform Drivers Intelxxx", on the Asus, it's an ATKxxx package, on the Dell it's a network driver. I believe it's because the Wifi and "chipset" are in the CPU SOC, not separate "devices".
