Hi all, OS Windows 10 Home My PC is dual-boot, Windows 10 Home and Linux "Adobe Photoshop 7.0.exe" is stored on a storage drive in ext4 format but without OS installed. Starting Windows I can connect to this drive but I couldn't start installation of Photoshop. Please advice. Thanks Regards

Hi! I have a problem. I have installed Debian 10 on my computer as second OS next to my Win 10. After this the Debian was my default system to boot into, but I wanted my Windows as default, so I went on and made some modifications after tutorials that I can't remember, and now I couldn't boot...

p { margin-bottom: 0.1in; line-height: 120%; } Hi everyone, I just got this working last night and I thought it was worth sharing with other forum users here. The interesting part was that the first time I tried to set this up, I downloaded the Ubuntu ISO file from Ubuntu.com official page. I...

How do I get my laptop to boot again? I'm new to Windows 10 Technical Preview, Ubuntu, and dual-booting, but I was able to successfully set up dual-booting on my laptop by following the advice to install Windows 10 first, then Ubuntu 14.04 so that the latter OS’s boot-loader would be the...

I have a dual-boot system between Windows 7 and Kubuntu. When I forgot that Windows 7 is the default operating system, I left my computer running at the boot menu to go get a drink of water. When I got back, I realized my mistake and also realized that CHKDSK was running at a horrifically slow...

Okay, here is the problem! Started out with Window 8 on new computer, a HP Pavilion g7 AMD dual-core processor. Attempted to dual-boot Ubuntu. Went through all the steps to disable Secure Boot, etc. Somehow in all the different ideas folks have provided me, I have DELETED the MBR (i.e., there...

I installed windows 8 on a new partition on my really old computer. Something I did made windows 8 not boot anymore (I don't want it on my computer, I want to fully revert back to XP). But, XP won't boot either! The error message when trying to boot xp is: Windows failed to start. A...

Would it be possible to compile a list of steps for dual-booting into Win8 and Win7? It would be amazing if the approach could be tailored for those of us who installed the Preview editions in dual-boot. :) Someone? Anyone? There might be a batch of cookies in it for you. ;) Laura...

I have Win8 RC on my system, set up as dual boot with Win7 Home Preview. I want to keep the dual-boot and the 2013 apps I have installed. I've been reading for hours but can't seem to find a definitive answer - will the Win8 retail copy ($95) install over the RC, without wiping everything...

While attempting to set up for dual-booting with Linux, I used a free program that apparently messed up my Win7 MBR or structure of my sectors. I panicked because I couldn't see anything on the disk after that. I concluded in despair that everything was lost so I got a Win7 disk from a friend...

Good morning, folks! Running XP Pro apps on older system disk with Windows 8 on new system On my previous desktop computer, one of my IDE hard disks was partitoned into Drive C and Drive D. Each of the partitions had an installation of XP Pro so it was a dual-boot system. My desktop...

I want to setup my laptop with VMWare or something similiar so that windows is running virtually, and every boot-up i am running a "fresh" windows install (sorta how most colleges have their systems setup), as well as have the option of booting into Ubuntu or Fedora as a dual boot option. BUT...

Compaq CQ56-154CA laptop Windows 7 Home Premium SP1. I Upgraded to SP1 and wlan won't connect. I restored to previous restore point and was not able to resolve the problem even by reinstalling the original HP driver. I re-installed Windows and all was OK. I upgraded to SP1 again after a few...

I dual-boot Windows 7 & 8. Now, I could switch to 7 & verify this but, I think my recollection is correct. In 7, after getting the Windows Experience Index, one could View Details but, I recall it being about what the number means & how it was derived. We would often use Everest (or the like)...

LinuxBSDos.com: One tool that has seen very little or no change over the past several releases in Ubuntu Desktop is the installation program. So it is somewhat surprising that some users are having problems dual-booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 using a tutorial written for Ubuntu 11.04. Link...

I ran the DP from mid-September 2011. Messed w/ it sporadically. Since 29/2/12 have been solidly w/ Windows8. To little time to learn it, personalise it. I'm running dual-boot w/ Windows7, both x64. The Start is of little concern... I boot to the Desktop... have customized start but visit it...

Let's say W7 & W8. Let's say there's a Sys drive & a Data drive & maybe others, too. When > Computer in the W7, see all the drives. AND... when in W8 > Computer AND still see & can access ALL the same drives... nice bonus to dual-boot, can get @ & use everything you already have from BOTH OSs...

Put a CPU gauge, like the All CPU Meter (gadget) not, the silly thing that is in the default Gadgets offering on the Desktop in a dual-boot set up w/ 7 & 8. Go back & forth between the 2 OSs, do the same sort of tasks & activities on each. You will see the resource usage is significantly &...

Allow me to preface this w/ WOW! (Now dual-boot W8 & W7, both x64) Installed in about 15 mins. & takes up 14.4Gig; couple mins. more to put in personal info, personalize things an initial bit & a few secs. (for it) to find Devices (camera, printer, etc.). Cool differences & greater...
