Nah, he's just hating on the front end. 😉

And I wouldn't trust it if it were the #25 either.

😁

Yeah, right... like that'll actually happen.

just dumping all my files onto an external hard drive

There’s absolutely zero sign of my pictures, my music, any documents, or even the stuff I actually downloaded, let alone anything that was sitting on my desktop 🙂 right after I booted up Mint

But wait, hold on, it’s actually all still there. It's just buried under the users folder 🙂

So what I'm thinking is, how about we split the workload for future races—I'll take one, you take the next?

Or maybe just go two by two.

Spot on, Sinno 👍

So, how the hell do I set this thing up so it installs Windows on its own separate partition?

I did everything exactly the way you told me to, but honestly, nothing has changed. It just won't boot into Windows or Linux at all.

Are you absolutely positive that the Linux file has to be in ISO format?

not a damn thing

it's just the keyboard that's plugged in

I honestly have zero clue how to get this thing configured in the BIOS, it just won't boot up for the life of me

I ended up just unplugging every single USB device and—boom—it’s actually working now!

Larry Ortiz5 said:Honestly, the easiest way to handle this is just to grab a Linux Mint live USB. Here’s how I’d go about it:

1. Download Linux http://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
2. Once that's done, you'll need to burn that ISO file onto a blank DVD—or, better yet, just flash it to a thumb drive.
3. Head into your BIOS settings and make sure your CD/DVD drive (or USB drive) is set as the primary boot device.
4. Boot into Linux, and that should be pretty much it—no full installation required. You can just plug in an external hard drive or a USB stick, move all your important files over there, and then you're free to format the main drive and install a fresh version of Windows.

p.s. I'm assuming you're comfortable with the actual Windows installation process, right?

Man, step 3 is absolutely killing me.

I can't even move a single cursor once I get in.

My keyboard is totally dead, won't respond to anything.

Lawrence Barnes64 said:Yeah, you totally can, you just need some little utility like Rufus or whatever else to burn that ISO image onto a thumb drive

Honestly, I'd rather just dig through my junk drawer for a DVD, pretty sure I've got a blank one lying around somewhere

yo, is this http://www.linuxmint.com/download.php

do I seriously have to burn this onto a DVD or can I just boot it from a USB stick?

So, how on earth am I supposed to get into this from a Linux live session???

it’s honestly just one single partition

so, you're telling me there's actually a chance to save some of this stuff?

I need some help, and I need it right freaking now!!!
