When you have to spend more time fixing Windows than actually using it, it's probably time to consider ~~buying a Chevy~~ installing Linux instead.
But what if in installing Linux you have to spend even more time fixing it and getting everything to work right?
It depends on your use case, do you have non-common needs like specialized software that may not work out of the box?
Specialized software like my audio drivers?
When was last time you used Linux, pops?
I think it was about a year ago. I have given up since then, but I have yet to find anyone capable of getting my audio to work properly, despite many hours of trying and help from multiple people from the Linux support subreddit. It might have been fixed since then, but I don't have the disk space nor the time to attempt the switch again, and if I can't even get audio to work, then I can't use the OS.
Edit: I believe this is the mobo if you want to look into things yourself. The best I every got was audio that was delayed by about a second. https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/AB350M-HDV/index.asp
Do you have some specific audio setup?
My understanding that pulse and another one just work on everything since late 2010s
Either way, not having time or energy is a fair point. I didn't switch because I wanted to. Satya the creep forced my hand.
Sounds like one day, microshit will get yountoo
Literally just a 3.5mm headset plugged directly into the mobo. As simple as can be.
I hope I can switch some day, but I doubt a lot of my actually specialized software will work any time soon, even if the audio issues have been fixed (or my computer replaced) so I don't expect to any time soon, unfortunately.
That mobo should be plug and play tbh so I am not sure on what the issue is tbh.
Exactly what everyone else said, regardless of how much troubleshooting they did. Lol
Yes, since many of them work out-of-the-box today. My PreSonus sound card worked fine when I made my setup four years ago.
