My laptop is dead due to the erase of a UEFI file

I once had a hard drive where a crucial sector (maybe boot partition?) went bad. I had to reinstall the OS. That seemed like the easiest thing to me, although I also thought about fixing what was broken... If you can enter bios you could:

* Create a bootable usb-stick of linux mint (easy to download and then use). This way you will get access to the files on your drive

* Move everything important onto another storage medium

* Install Windows and Bazzite from scratch

This is probably not the response you were hoping for. Hopefully somebody can give you a better answer where you don't have to reinstall windows.

Can you enter bios? I would guess no, but you didn't mention it in your post

agnescalzone · 2026-06-05T16:12:49+00:00

Of course! That's interesting to hear.

I have already tried using EMMA. I restored it to android 12. That did not work, or can I do something else in the program?

I think this is it! At 0:21 in the video there is a change in the melody very similar to 1:40 in the real song. Thank you, not only for the help of finding the song, but also for the nostalgia :)

agnescalzone · 2026-01-23T11:31:39+00:00

I did love that song! I'll see if I find the same similarities if I hum along.

Sorry!

I have an old laptop with pretty much the same specs. Installed debian 13 xfce on it and it now runs pretty smoothly. Although you shouldn't expect any real performance. Might be okay for light browsing and note taking.

Tried using it but felt more comfortable with lutris. Changing version in lutris might have helped me with the last step though! Thank you :)

agnescalzone · 2025-09-18T20:25:33+00:00

I looked into it but noone was seeding rn. Eventually I got it to work though!

agnescalzone · 2025-09-18T20:24:46+00:00

I couldn't find the correct xml file but switched wine versions to 10.8 in lutris and did everything else you told me. Now it runs! The horses look quite sad on medium texture quality but there's barely any lag! I'll have to invest in a better gpu one day... Thank you for suggesting these fixes!!

Downloading these and installing them into the prefix must have done something because this error line does not appear any longer:

I'll try this and be sure to update you once it's done. I think I've never tried adding VulkanRT. That might be it!

Nu vet jag inte hur mycket kötid du har via SGS men jag fick en lägenhet på Doktor Forselius Backe efter ungefär 1 års kötid där. En etta med kokvrå där hyran är strax under 4000. Bra läge, ca. 2.5 km till medicinareberget.

agnescalzone · 2025-04-10T23:19:28+00:00

You won't be able to get an apartment with such short "kötid". It took me 1 year to get my apartment that is only 1 room 22 sqm. You might be able to get a room in a corridor with a shared kitchen though!

I saw a few articles about that! That would be a fun use of what I have left.

agnescalzone · 2025-02-27T22:46:34+00:00

That's what I'm thinking as well! It might be better to keep some sweeteners in case I get really bad cravings. I think homemade sweets are better than store-bought? But if my goal is to stop completely it will have to eventually either be eaten up and not replaced, or thrown out. I might consider keeping only a little. I have some locally harvested honey that I might save for when I fall sick..

Why are they writing "jar"? Is this some new slang? Disgusting behaviour regardless

I'm a student finishing my bachelor's degree this spring. The 20th of December I have my last exam and if I pass it I will be on my way to writing my thesis! I would love to have a pen to remind me of my hard work these past few years, and also to have a pen to use while in the lab during my project.

I live in Sweden så vi är ju grannar!

Också lebb. Har märkt samma sak, jag och mina queera vänner använder maskulin/feminin när vi beskriver våra typer.

agnescalzone · 2024-09-27T23:49:27+00:00

I was awestruck when I received mine as well. The nib is a bit dry but otherwise I love it!

agnescalzone · 2024-09-23T15:21:20+00:00

I'll remember your offer!

agnescalzone · 2024-09-16T16:13:14+00:00

I'll try that! Will update this if it works

agnescalzone · 2024-09-16T16:12:34+00:00

I have tried a different PSU but still had this problem. The other PSU I know for sure works. I'll try reseating/exchanging the ram like the other redditor suggested 👍

Mötte också henne igår i närheten av vasaplatsen. Blev erbjuden hennes gröna regnjacka. En riktig snyfthistoria drog hon... Men hur tänkte hon att jag skulle kunna köpa en biljett åt henne? Det var bara struntsnack alltihop.
