  1. Windows stuck on top?

    Unfortunately not. If it causes an issue I close the "on top" window and reload the program.
  2. Everything on the screen is green!

    The screen does not go green until Windows starts loading.
  3. Everything on the screen is green!

    Thanks... I've tried several drivers now of both the Game Ready and the Studio variety. Any 5xx series driver has the green issue. Any 4xx series driver downgrades my video (I don't get 4K video, even though that's the resolution I have chosen.) What's really frustrating is that my laptop using...
  4. Everything on the screen is green!

    Found one more thing... If I disable HDR with the new driver I can get 60Hz normally. So I guess I need to choose between 60Hz and HDR.
  5. Everything on the screen is green!

    Found something... If I set the refresh rate to 30hz I get my normal colors back. Setting it back to 60Hz breaks it again. This is with nVidia's 552.12 driver. I've installed the v472.12 driver and now have a working 60Hz, but this driver is a few years old.
  6. Everything on the screen is green!

    Everything on my Windows 11 screen is green! The picture is fine when I am in Linux. I've tried uninstalling the nVidia driver and doing a clean reinstall of the latest driver. Video card is an nVidia RTX 3060. Any idea what is happening?
  7. Solved Rebuild EFI partition after Linux install wipes all traces of Windows

    I thought that the BIOS boot menu would work, but the drive wasn't listed... Seems that I knocked a SATA cable loose installing the new 500GB NVME drive. THAT was the cause of my issue. :ROFLMAO: Everything is working fine now.
  8. Solved Rebuild EFI partition after Linux install wipes all traces of Windows

    Yes, I want the Windows entry to show up in Grub2. Actually, it's funny that you mentioned that... It turns out that the SATA cable had come loose from the Windows drive. It wasn't the EFI partition all all. It was just me being clumsy. Sorry, this is a different system than the one listed as...
  9. Solved Rebuild EFI partition after Linux install wipes all traces of Windows

    I have a dual boot system between Windows 11 and Linux Mint 21.3. Linux is booting fine from Grub, but the Windows installation is not listed. I did some investigation and my EFI partition only has info for the Linux install. The Window data is gone. How can I rebuild the EFI partition so that...
  10. Solved Moved Windows folders still appear in the Users folder

    One Drive is completely disabled and uninstalled. I did create empty folders on D: before I used the Location tab to move each folder, and I let Windows move the existing files. I don't have any of the folders that I moved in C:\Users\Steve - they just show up when I use the quick link in...
  11. Solved Moved Windows folders still appear in the Users folder

    OneDrive sucks big time... First thing I do when I set up Windows is remove OneDrive. I think I'm just seeing a "virtual folder" created by Windows. I can live with it. I just found it confusing until I realized what was going on.
  12. Solved Moved Windows folders still appear in the Users folder

    Lots of files found, but no folders. It looks like a "virtual" folder that Windows just builds when you put a users name in the address bar. I just find it odd that the Personal Folder icon in the Start menu doesn't open the virtual folder.
  13. Solved Moved Windows folders still appear in the Users folder

    I just moved a few folders from my C:\Users\Steve folder to a folder on my D: drive. I did this using the Location tab on the properties of each folder. The folders moved without issues. I expect to see that the moved folders will appear at their new location and be gone from the old location...
  14. Solved Windows 11 left and empty 93GB partition?

    I most likely had the software installed some time ago on an old Windows installation and set it that way. Tried installing the Samsung software again yesterday and it refused to even start. Samsung does not write good software.
  15. Solved Windows 11 left and empty 93GB partition?

    With some searching, I learned that this may have been created by the Samsung Magician software from my SSD 980 Pro drive. I have since reset Windows and haven't installed the Samsung software. I still don't understand why Diskpart and Disk Manager don't agree.
