Hi all I need some guidance with install a new PC It has UEFI bios, Intel quad core, 8 gig of RAM and a GFX 460 Nvidia graphics card. As usual I offered to help to introduce linux to an avid Gamer. I installed Win 7 ok then after a lot of mucking about with the Bios I got it to boot a live CD ( UEFI installs a Windows BootLoader, so you have CD sata0 and "windows bootloader" as boot choices, of course WBL was first). Eventually I get a distro to run ( Fedora 17 64 bit ) but only on the onboard Graphics (intel) but it does see the 8Gig of Ram. None have so far seen the Win7 boot partition and now Fedora has deleted the EFI entry in the Bios! I can fix this with a win disk but... What is the best way to approach this and... Do I have any chance of running Linux on the GFX 460 (1Gig RAm) Graphics. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Regards Kevin Lucas Minions Post Master(Sub) Skype minions_shop www.minionsbandb.co.uk www.tearooms.minionsbandb.co.uk FaceBook Minions_shop Po House, Minions, Liskeard Cornwall PL14 5LE 01579363386 -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
