Thanks for posting your success I just recently got Origin working again as well I will be posting a guide on Mass Effect 3 soon Love your desktop wallpaper!

Use the Wine Manager to download Wine 1.7.55 or 1.7.55-staging Pulseaudio is now compatible with Wine in that version

I think I know what the problem is... Just as you said!!! Windows 8 Fast Boot is enabled so Mint 17.2 probably thinks the drive is mounted since Windows 8 is technically in "sleep mode"

Would it help to use GParted to format the drive, Install Win 8, then Install Mint, but create a /Boot partition?

Actually I tried Mint 17.3 beta and the installer has the same problem

Oh by the way, gparted will see the different partitions, but if I try to format I get an error

Good point, so use Ubuntu on live USB and partition the free space I made with Win 8? Then pop in the Mint live USB and install?

No problem, I'm still researching how to make Mint see the GPT partitions Apparently Ubuntu 14 has no problem Not sure why Mint can't?

I keep reading post about "shrinking Windows 8 to create a partition for Mint" What is the difference if I shrink Windows 8 or just create separate partitions with the installer?

Thanks for all the info Daerandin! I already installed Windows 8 twice and Windows 7 three times and still having problems. This morning I tried DISKPART and converted the drive to MBR But as you know, found that I installed Windows 7 fine and Mint on the extra partition, but now Grub doesn't...

Sadly yes, for games only. Since I have 6 computers for gaming and LAN parties, a lot of games we like run better in Windows. Everything else can be done solely in Mint. I gave up with Win8 64-bit because of GPT partition type. Linux 17.2 and 17.3 beta refused to see the partitions. I'm...

I'm finally upgrading my Dungeon Case Motherboard: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 CPU: 3.5Ghz AMD 6-core RAM: 8 Gig DDR3 1600 HD: 1 Terabyte Segate VC: GeForce 550 Ti 1GB RAM Just installed Windows 8 64-bit flawlessly Now I'm ready for Linux Mint 17.2 64-bit and the problems begin. Remember...

Sadly I'm experiencing everything you were experiencing with installing Linux UFEI is a total pain in the butt! Having Windows 8 pre-installed makes it even harder

Sounds like Ghost Recon meets Counter Strike I've always loved the realistic tactics and simulation of Ghost Recon One hit will almost always do-you-in So you can just run-n-gun You have to peek around corners and always have someone watching your back. I do a lot of LAN Parties at my home with...

Good luck with Resident Evil 4 We have an ongoing thread about it: RE4 GamersOnLinux It seems to run as long as you don't use HD textures

Nope, I haven't heard from Josh or Steve in a long time about Everquest Did you install the "Microsoft Registered Fonts" package in PlayOnLinux? There is also a "Core Fonts" package as well If those don't work, then I'm pretty clueless. have you found any other website like WineHQ that...

I wish I knew... The sooner the better Wine developers really do not post progress

From your laptop to desktop? You must have a pretty fast laptop

I was curious because the generation difference is pretty big. Newer obviously is faster

Uh, oh If mrdeathjr28 can't get it running, then there is a chance its not going to work. Since you are using Ubuntu, try this command in the Terminal: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386; sudo apt-get update if that doesn't work, then you will have to use this command to manually install all the...
