It’s looking more and more like that’s going to be my solution. I was hoping to get win11 installed to ease some other network connectivity (with my astrophotography hardware) but it’s beginning to seem less worth the pain.
Funnily enough, I had already installed Mint to test the SSD and it formatted no problems and installed. I reformatted it back to one partition to install Windows first and then later will put Linux back on in a dual boot. Thanks.
Maybe they can
