Also, part of the cost is learning how to communicate. When you write a problem, and various people make suggestions, it is _Your Job_ to try those suggestions, and say what happened, or what you don't understand, if you want more help. If you want to become GNU/Debian/Linux master, it will take time, not overnight instant solution to all problems. Patience grasshopper! With Windows (XP for example), have you learned things over the years? Which drivers are important to download/ keep copies of, for your graphics card for example? Or service packs, so you have a install process of various things and steps and configurations, before you connect to Internet for first time? Debian GNU/Linux is the same - there are things to learn, processes to discover and learn. In time, you might even be able to help others :) > buying another motherboard is shortcut, to me If your patience is low, then yes, this might be a quicker solution. BUT WAIT! Don't rush to buy a motherboard - read some of the questions from last month on this list; try to buy a non-UEFI motherboard, or be prepared for more learning curve!! Whatever you do, there is learning! Learning is easier when you have patience, of course :) Good luck Zenaan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
