Ok, so I am so frustrated with this Windows 8.1 machine!!
Eventually it will dual boot as I have always done
I have a USB stick with UBUNTU on it and I want to see about running a live session.
I have already screwed up machine trying a DVD and had to do 'recovery' of my Win 8.1.
I have disabled 'secure boot'
I get to boot order screen and it has the following entry:
Windows Boot Manager
then something about:
UIEFI...IVPT 4
UIEFI...IVPT 6
and then :
Legacy Sources
Ok, those are not the exact words in each line but hope someone
gets what I mean, lol
This is an HP AMD A4-5000 APU
1TB hard drive
6GB RAM
Please, any help I would really like
Thanks
EDIT: if more info is needed, please ask
