      My dude, I spent my first six hours on Linux Mint trying to get my touchpad to actually work.

      I only fire up my Linux dual-boot when I’m feeling bored and think “you know what my day needs? A lot more frustration.”

        My dude, try more than one distro & also try them live via USB before you install them onto bare metal. You might have more luck.
