HELP NEEDED FAST

[lukkalukaa]

Hello, I just bought a new laptop and it came with Linpus Linux operating system and I don't know how to remove it and install Windows on it. I don't know how to use Linux. I have tried entering the BIOS and changing the boot priority to my USB but it doesn't work, Help please!!!!!

Its really not too difficult, but we need a little more information

Have you followed a guide like this one?

Could you provide the exact make and model of the laptop?

Basically you don't have to uninstall linux, just make sure you back up any important files and then buy windows (Legally!) and use the dvd drive on your computer or using a usb stick. The guide listed above will serve you well

Well he doesn't have to spend money on windows right away. Windows 10 is currently still free for download, and unless activated the only limitation one might encounter is the Microsoft blue print in the bottom right corner and the occasional wallpaper reset. I am not suggesting illegal activity obviously, just mentioning that immediate purchase isn't necessary nor is it a priority, as an activation down the line is possible.

What did you try to do inside of the bios?

[Matty2hatty]

So wait, you can use windows 10 without activation and all it does is reset your wallpaper?

Link to what? Proof that this is the case? I mean i can probably dig up a website for you, but i speak from experience. As anything over the internet goes, i suppose you just have my word to go on i guess haha but let me look it up for you.

here it is:

It even shows some installation steps. But the only limitation to a non-activated version is the lack in personalisation.
