I'll have to get another stick then and put the iso file on it, on it's own.
I've got this info so i'll follow it. https://linuxmint-installation-guide.re ... /burn.html

I downloaded an .iso file from one of the mirrors in Australia.
As i said, i put it on a memory stick, however there are other things on the stick too, would that make a difference?

No, i don't know anyone else that uses Linux.

I've downloaded Mint 21 to a memory stick. I've read up on how to install a new version on my pc and taken lots of notes. However when i restart my pc and it gets to the Boot Menu i can't see any mention on the stick! Why isn't it showing up?
Thanks.

I'd love to but it seems so daunting, i'm very computer illiterate!

Linux Mint 18.1 Serena MATE. Hi. I've just started to use the Thunar file manager. I've copied all my pictures from a memory stick to a folder but when i go into the folder the actual pics aren't visible. All i get is what type of file it is, yes it's in beautiful living colour, but that's not what ...

I've just upgraded to Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa from Linux Mint 17. Previously the screensaver was never activated at all, no matter how long the pc had been idle. However now it comes on after a short time. I've gone to menu/screensaver and unticked the box which activates it and put the time to 2hrs. A...

Well the printer is working ok except that text is unreadably small. How can i increase the size of it?
Thanks for all your help too.

Hi.
I've got the thing going now!
I did method 1. I tried the second one but got stuck.

There doesn't seem to be a printer logo at the bottom of the screen as i was expecting.

Thanks for all your help.

Thanks for all the replies. I've bought the HP DJ2540 printer. Unfortunately i don't seem to be able to print with it! It's all plugged in of course and ready to go. I've looked at the cd that came with it and to be honest there is so much on it i'm not sure what to do? A lot of the files i click on...

Hi. Are there any printers suitable with linux that work straight out of the box? I've been given links in the past to pages that have large numbers of various printers for linux, but they all seem to have to have something done to them in order for them to work. I am completely NOT technical with c...

Linux Mint 17 qiana. I recently opened an account at WordPress but quickly realized it wasn't quite what i wanted so i don't actually go to the site anymore. I've read that a person cannot close their account for some reason? Anyway there are some sites that i go to that now only open on top of the ...

Mint MATE. The resolution i've had for my monitor has been 1920, however i just had to change it to 1024x768 to view the PC on my tv screen. I went into menu/preferences/monitor to do this. Now i need to change it back to 1920 but that particular option isn't listed anymore, the highest is only 1024...

I've just installed ClamAV and did a scan which came up with 11 PUAs. After reading about this in the forum i just want to make sure that i should ignore these as they're not real threats, but false positives? I read that i should turn off the scan for PUAs in the preferences, so i did that. Is this...

I've been trying to find other people in the same boat so that i can see how to fix this problem. I found some others having the same experience but no luck on the fix. One person talked about a virus causing this to happen, could that be true? They spoke about installing clam. I didn't have this so...

Linux Mint MATE. I use the Opera browser and i'm trying to download some files. They are mp3 and flac music files, the same kind i've downloaded off and on for ages now. The files are currently on the 'download' page. Usually i double-click on one of them and that opens up Tixati with that particula...

i was just on the line to hp to ask about a particular printer. i must of spent around 15 minutes talking and waiting and in the end there was no joy. when the guy came back the second time he said none of the printers are suitable for linux. he then said thats because linux is a very old fashioned ...
