    Issue installing Linux

    Thanks for the replies, the laptop now keeps going to BSD more regularly, getting different stopcodes, gonna have to sort that first so will find a HP Envy Forum as I don't want to clog the forum up with non Linux issues, I will keep an eye on this forum also in case there are any replies, thanks.
