Jerry,

Thank You - I've seen this youtube vid and followed the instructions to the letter.  Recent evidence shows on desktop's, laptop's & netbooks less than 2 years old or so it simply doesn't work.  Still boots right into WinBlows 8 or 8.1.  I recently went so far as to do a fresh install Win8 - still no joy

What I've been forced to do is simply inform people of this outrageous and blantant scheme to promote "planned obsolescence" feeding corporate greed.  I then install a new HD and do a clean Linux Lite install / configure.  I further explain that if they're unhappy using LL2, I'll put the system back into Windows.  My numbers indicate 2 people out of 67 have requested machine(s) returned to Windows.  Even these folks were reluctant but had a need to run some Windows compliant software we couldn't make happen under Wine or play on linux.  Anyway you cut it;  those are good numbers for Linux community.

Nonetheless, I sure would like to find a process to deliver "Both OS's" without having to spend 6 or more hours of extra work usually ending in failure.

Enough of my rant...

Thank you ALL for your great work !!!!
I teach people everything I know, and they still don't know anything - may the farce be with you
