No luck with mint either . There is no exe install icon that Ubunta had .
Are you installing this from your SSD?

I downloaded it and it asked me to burn it to a DVD which I have done .
I am completely lost with this .
Woohoo !!! That worked OM1 . I like how you can boot into either at startup . Having an issue with the desktop though . My screen is too large and everything hangs over the sides a bit . I have no visual of the task bar but there are popups to tell me what I'm looking at .I also have this issue in the bios mainpage but when I go to advanced in the bios it's ok . I'll keep fiddiling around with it . Mint looks super sweet so far .
Thanks again for the help to all involved . I feel like a real geek and nerd now using a Linux system . Always been a nerd ,,,just having to add geek to it makes it more fulfilling ...
sudo apt-get upgrade
Go to System Settings, Displays. Change the resolution to 1920x1080 (or 1280 x 800). The big screen is because you do not have your drivers configured properly. Install Mint, and once installed go into a terminal and type:
Code:sudo apt-get upgrade
Or, you can click your start button and go into System Settings, Additional Drivers. Let the system find the right driver.
I am willing to give you whatever assistance you need to get your Mint system going the way you want. I have been studying it intently and using it very heavily at work and at home. Bluce can help you as well.
1920 x 1080 (16:9) gives me the sharpest screen but it still over hangs a bit . 1680x1050 (16:10) is fuzzy looking but gives me a full screen .
It recognized the .44 you were threatening it with you damn bikie hooligan!!!
Oh, BTW, I think you dropped your stick...........
Can't seem to get the exe to open for my downloads . What do I need to do to get them to install ? I downloaded Torch and Belarc Advisor and found the exe for both but nothing happens . I'll keep looking around . I'm really enjoying Mint even if it has a different layout than stinkin windozer . I really like that I do not have to keep doing the ( are you sure you want to do this ) questions that windozer always asks you or having to click on the ( yes and no ) . Mint just changes things right in front of . Friggin awesome ! . It does not treat you like you are stupid.
Hmmm ,,, I downloaded the Wine Program Loader . It's there in downloads but what do I do now to have it show up in ( open with ) ?
