    So I was installing Kali Linux on the other half of my 1TB SSD in the new asus pro duo laptop i got in order to have a dual boot between windows which i had recently upgraded to windows 11 like 3 days prior to this happening. The first time went fine, no errors on the install, I had it set up and was using it just fine for several months switching when needed from kali back to windows and vice versa, and one day kali had an issue with the display manager and would only boot into a black screen i could see my mouse pointer on, couldnt find a fix for it but was able to find out it was within t

  2. Help on Dual Boot

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you would like to dual boot the computer.

    I would like to inform you that, it is possible to install Windows 10, only if Windows XP is preinstalled on the computer. If
    you are trying to install Windows XP just to run a particular software, I suggest you to run the program in compatibility mode and check if it helps.

    I suggest you to run the program in Compatibility mode, please follow the below steps:

    1) Right click on the Program

    2) Click on Properties

    3) Click on Compatibility tab

    4) Select Run this program in compatibility mode and select the operating system accordingly from the drop down list.

    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Help with dual booting Win 10 and Ubuntu

    This is your whole problem. What you should have done is to put GRUB in sdb1 and Windows Manager in sda1 so that Windows Boot Manager is in control.
    So what suggested above will not make any difference. GRUB is still in control of booting process.
    To fix your problem. You will need to:
    1. Move GRUB from sdb to sdb1
      |grub2 - how to move grub boot from one partition to another in linux - Ask Ubuntu
    2. Rebuild The Windows Boot Manager ie. create a brand new BCD to boot Windows 10.
    3. Once done with steps 1 and 2 above. Windows will not know UBUNTU exists and vice versa.
      Depend on the priority set in the BIOS, it will boot directly into that OS.
      However, you can boot either one from Boot Menu (Using whatever key that your Laptop assigned to: F2, F10....)
      Since I hate Dual Boot and seldom boot into Linux, I will stop here.
      Now, go to step 4 to create dual boot.
    4. Use Easy BCD to create an entry for dual boot with UBUNTU. Once done, you should get a nice GUI dual Boot Menu
      and it will boot directly into either Windows or UBUNTU.

    Here's the detailed explanation: How can I move windows 10 boot files to another drive to allow linux
