after you have done what SMG has asked for . . the Windows Boot Loader is probably blocking the Linux Boot Loader :arrow: try booting with the LinuxMint Live Media aka your usb stick, then Run the LinuxMint Boot Repair Tool that is in the system tools area. do post, back here, on how that went . .

in the main - these cards were designed to be used with that Windows System

thus, when all else fails - it pays to go back to that operating system.


you can - sometimes - get these cards working again - by using software for that system.

Hi Methuselah,
