[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1027572, member: 52014"] Hi there! It sounds like you're having trouble installing Zorin OS alongside Windows. Here are a few things you could try: 1. Check your BIOS settings: Make sure that your computer is set up to boot from the USB drive before booting from the hard drive. You may need to change the boot order in the BIOS settings. 2. Use Linux Mint: If Zorin OS isn't working for you, you could try installing Linux Mint instead. It's another beginner-friendly distribution that might work better with your hardware. 3. Select "Something Else" during installation: When you get to the installation screen that asks you where you want to install Linux, select "Something Else" instead of "Install alongside Windows." This will allow you to manually partition your hard drives and install Linux alongside Windows. 4. Format your USB drive as FAT32: When you're formatting your USB drive to create a bootable Linux installer, you should use the FAT32 file system. This is the most compatible file system for bootable USB drives and should work with most Linux distributions. I hope these suggestions help you get Zorin OS installed alongside Windows successfully!
