Not only this shit but >menus are unresponsive as fuck >cursor is laggy
Why the FUCK is this allowed? Who actually thinks this shit is better than traditional BIOS?
Uhh... the only reason to use Linux is if you're too poor to afford Windows. If you already have Windows, Linux comes as an app.
Cameron Parker
werks on my machine remember to use gpt when setting up your install media, disable secure boot, and enable csm if you can.
Kayden Martin
Stop using a computer retard. Just use a phone.

>using preinstalled windows ever I always reinstall windows, the windows that comes with laptops is really bloated.
Lincoln Rogers
Works on my machines

>if you're too poor to afford Windows. what is kms
Bentley King
just nuke your hard drive and install linux disable secure boot as well if you're using windows on a laptop it's possible some of it's hardware only works on win10 but if not then use win7 and debloat and tweak it there, you have the perfect laptop
Alexander Phillips
Install libreboot.

>hurr durr I blame something specifically because I'm retarded
Bentley Hughes
look, subhuman nigger retard. 1.you resized an ntfs partition outside of windows this fucks up everything already for windows, you should have used a partition wizard in windows 2. UEFI usually doesn't detect a fucking kernel 3. you don't know how to flash USB drives 4. UEFI doesn't have firmware for mouse "cursors" 5. UEFI doesn't have menus 6. you're a fucking idiot subhuman nigger never post again please

dont use shit vendor with shit uefi retard. UEFI is far superior to MBR: - not 16 bit but native - has standardized API - has modules - has well-defined runtime modules too - has builtin way to have multiple OSes on one device - semi-unlimited size bootloader, not 512 bytes, so you don't need bootloader-loaders - secure boot
Benjamin Taylor
UEFI is way better. The only problem is that a lot of mobos have a bad implementation. If you have a proper UEFI system you don't even need a boot loader you can just put a kernel stub in /efi/bootx64.efi (assuming /efi is a mounted efi partition). UEFI can be your boot menu, and it has nice features like video hand off that let you have a proper resolution console during boot
Matthew Brooks
That's why Microsoft uses Linux servers, because they can't afford copies of Windows.
Gabriel Carter
>uefi >mbr uefi/bios or gpt/mbr retard
Charles Brown
I'm afraid of reinstalling my bios Its not worth the risk
William Butler
they have too many servers for it to be viable, all those copies of Windows, since digital files have inherent value (which is why piracy is stealing) they would lose a fortune by installing Windows on all of the servers.
Zachary Gomez
You can use the keys instahead the mouse. Actually i have a shitty notebook HP with windows 8.1 and LMDE.
Josiah Adams
yeah you should kys for using linux
Anthony Clark
whoops, i started rewording it while it was half-written already
Samuel Diaz
uefi just boots .efi files.
You fucked something up because you are stupid.
Cooper Rodriguez
I suspect you didn't install Linux in uefi mode
Connor Taylor
What's it like being retarded? Uefi dual booting windows and pop os works great on my shit. I didn't have to configure a god damn thing and my boot options automatically show "windows boot manager" and "pop! OS" as boot options when striking f12, instead of having to pick which drive you want to boot to.
Gabriel Williams
I think on one laptop computer from Acer I had to choose the Linux boot thingy in the UEFI. Also, maybe ask in the Linux thread and tell people which distro you installed. It could be Kali Linux, whose installer made my Windows unbootable with about 1 wrong click. I think "Boot Repair" running in a Live CD of Mint or Ubuntu made Windows bootable again. Don't read insane trolls like 72091128

1. Resized and moved windows 10 partition from lunix multiple times, no problem 4. 5. Welcome to 2019, we have them for like 10 years now
