How to install Linux in Windows 8?
I bought a new laptop and I was happy, until I turned it on. It was not an option to access the BIOS, when I started first, I noticed. Then I followed the installation of Windows 8, everything was going well (except for the part that I want to talk). I put in my x 64 Arch Linux cd, restarted Windows 8... There is still no option to access the BIOS. NO BIOS. I paid $ 700 for this laptop, but it doesn't have a BIOS. I think I've paid enough to receive a BIOS. Well, back to the story. The arch Linux installation menu doesn't start, but a windows 8. I tried the CD on my other laptop and it worked. I searched Google for hours and I found answer he. UEFI. It's sad. I found the answer: http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/20303.html but I'm afraid that this method may not work and break the whole system. If it breaks the stupid windows will break and if windows case I have no computer. THANK YOU MICROSOFT.

Anyway, anyone know how to install Linux in Windows 8? I intend to remove Windows 8 once I do it because Windows 8 is inflated and it will be a waste of space and partitions.
Well I have not played with Arch Linux so I can't help, I mentioned only what I did with Ubuntu.
But I was wondering why there is no BIOS - I have a DELL Studio with Windows 8 Professional and I can easily boot into BIOS.
See if you can help the following:--

How to install OBIA on windows with OBIEE on Linux?
Hello
I'm going to install as many components as possible for BI applications on Linux.
Currently, I have installed 11.1.1.7 on Linux 64 bit 5.8 OBIEE.
Now, I want to install 7964 OLIVIER who is only available for Windows so far.
How can I configure OBIA on Linux? Maybe I need to install windows and move (RPD, catalog) metadata on Linux.
But even once when I try to install OBIA on windows then it ask OBIEE software places (like field House, etc. for instance)
Is it interesting by Oracle? How to solve it?
Documentation not to say anything on this subject.
Concerning
Naeem AkhtarYes, Naeem, you need to make a simple OBIEE 11 g on windows installation and then install OBIA and then move the files (.rep, .rpd, export, webcat etc.) to the locations required under LINUX...
Select this option if it helps.

Cannot install Linux alongside Windows-8 (UEFI)
I have HP pavilion 23-b026 all in one PC, which came with pre-installed Windows-8. Now, I want to install Linux alongside W - 8. (There is unallocated space on the disk about 250 GB)
But when I try to boot from Linux-DVD, BIOS allows system to be booted from the DVD in EFI mode. He always assumes legacy mode (non - EFI) for DVD to boot. Therefore, I'm unable to install & start Linux.
The error raised is:
ERROR: No boot disk was detected or the drive failed.
BIOS has no option to start EFI for CD/DVD mode.
Is there a way out?
Thank you.
I had a similar problem.
You have the ISO? If so, burn on the USB.
I could not start CD/DVD, but was able to boot from USB and install a Setup to dual-boot with UEFI BIOS on a pavilion of 1380t H8.

How to install fonts in Windows 7?
Original title: hidden file
Let me start by saying that
(1) I Folderoptions/view/files n hidden folders CHECKED
(2) Hide protected files from the op system not CHECKED
(3) I have administrator privileges.
(4) operating system is windows7
Now, there is a font file in C:\windows\fonts--je know it is there because it shows in the "dos" console. But it does not show in windows Explorer. It is important b/c I don't know how to install the police otherwise. Thnaks
You could try to copy on your desktop using the command line. If it appears (as it should display with the settings you have selected in your original), you can then use the folder of fonts installation command. If it was useful, you can vote by clicking on the green triangle. If it solves the problem, click on propose as answer. Thank you!
