Has anyone booted Mint USB live bootable on an Acer Aspire desktop T3 715?
The PC:
Acer desktop machine, Aspire T3 715, Windows 10 Home 64b.
CPU: Intel Core i5-6400
RAM: DR4-SDRAM 16GB 2133MHzDDR4-SDRAM
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950
SSD: C-rive 128GB
HDD: D-drive, 3.5" SATA3 HDD 100GB.
The bootable:
The ISO: Any of Mint 21.3 ISO downloaded from Mint website.
The flash drive: Any make of USB2 or USB3 flash drive 8GB.
The software: PowerISO or Rufus or any.
The BIOS: Disabled security boot & removable device as first boot priority.
The boot: Tap F12 & select the USB live bootable to boo.
The result: The PC booted into Windows 10 as if the USB bootable were not there.
Have installed Xfce and Cinnamon alongside Windows onto 12 computers, for my own family and friends, desktops or laptop, Acer or Asus or Lenovo makes, Windows Vista or 7 or 8 or 10. All successful.
Have tried installing Xfce and Cinnamon alongside Windows onto 2 Acer T3 715 Desktops. All failed. Simple, as if the USB live bootable were not there when I tried to boot it.
Has anyone successfully booted any Mint USB live bootable on an Acer T3 715, Windows 10 Home 64b? How did you do it, please?
Thank you.
