After that, I decided that Windows what not so great at all for hardware support.Īnother reason I left Windows is Windows 8. I decided to install the new chipset drivers and launch the Windows update and after that, Windows decided to boot without any USB support (WTF.). I finally made it through Windows after disabled AHCI mode on my motherboard, but then activation was invalidated (of course.) and online activation was not working. I turned out the contrary: my Gentoo installation worked just fine and my Windows totally crashed (BSOD at each startup). I was afraid that I had to reinstall my Linux configurations (because of Gentoo compiled with march=native), but I never thought that I would have to reinstall Windows.
This weekend I upgraded my hardware configuration (Motherboard, CPU and RAM). On the other hand, I work on Linux for years now and I would like to have to work on Windows again. For instance, Newsleecher, iTunes or TaggedFrog. I always had some applications that I didn't found good enough Linux equivalents for. Most of the time when you add new peripheral, there is nothing, it just works, which is great.
I always found that hardware support in Windows was great. As I hate OpenOffice/LibreOffice, I never wanted to remove it For schools we always had several teachers forcing us to use Microsoft document formats. Games :) Unfortunately, most of the games I play are not natively compatible with Linux.So first things first, why was I keeping the Windows system ? For several reasons: This week-end, I decided to completely remove it and migrate the applications I used on Windows to my Gentoo system. For years now, I always kept a dual-boot at home with a Linux system (currently Gentoo) and a Windows system.
