Installing Windows is still as much fun as it was in the days of 13 floppy discs. 🙄 Some things never change. 🤷♂️ 😂
I spent > 2 hours on it this evening between the installation running and all the setup crap before you even see the desktop.
It didn't fix my flashing monitor problem, either. 🙄 Didn't really expect it to, just wanted to give it one last chance. I think I can still fix it down the road.
Next I'm installing Linux Mint! Start the timer, and hold my beer! 🤓 😎
Restart your timers, I ended up chatting for more than an hour! 😂 🤣 Got a nice snack and made some fresh coffee too, so I'm ready to dig in! ☕ 💪
Stop your timers again! 😂 I just ran into a technical issue I'll have to research a bit before proceeding. RST module vs AHCI. I'm too cross-eyed atm to think about it. 😉 😂
Time to chill out and watch a bit of the Red Green Show! 🎉

Thanks! My ultimate goal is a dual-boot setup with Win and Linux, but Linux Mint seems to have issues with RST.
One article sounded like Win might not boot if I changed to AHCI, so thought I'd best pause and consider. No biggie if I lose current Win installation, though.
I'm having an unexpected crash-course in how to get old-school with the new stuff. 😉
I have a weird issue since a Win update last weekend, causing display issues. Stubborn fix, seems like time to go Linux.
