Well a short while back I bought a MSI b450 tomahawk max, dropped in 64gb of ram a Ryzen 5 2600 "6core 12 thread" and a couple of WD Gold enterprise drives with a super fast sata drive for the OS's. I also put in a NVIDIA 1650. Well the internet has been shit the entire time slow with dropped connections, NVIDIA card slow as fuck, and just average if that performance for what should be a fast setup. Well if anyone that has the fucked up RED colored bios that jumps from window to window like a stupid phone GUI instead of a modern tabbed bios, and it is the worst designed amibios going for look over useful easy to navigate, I can imagine not done on purpose though with this adventure I doubt MS didn't maybe give the bios maker some incentive after the shit I went through. Well I thought at the beginning that after reading about the tight power savings it might be that so off I went reading anything and everything including Gentoo forums that were more informative than almost anywhere including the arch wiki as in keeping it readable with read examples not just x this shit and x that shit or is it /dev or is the path like in Manjaro terminal /run/media/*, who the fuck that I can tell with the vagueness and vague not real world example that is a 100x clearer, and not the stuff they posted that is like a mystery and no ones giving the ending away or the middle. Well I then got into my bios and really took the time to check the settings and this one setting under windows setup along with secure boot both hidden where a lot of Linux users that don't use windows might just pass by, well I click on this button and an option box opened with UEFI and CSM "never heard of it. I just installed without much but choosing the boot for the USB stick I just made before taking my old system offline for good. I guess since it was a Dell that had a hybrid bios for legacy and modern hardware using UEFI it wrote the USB distro with that boot in mind. I kept looking around and disabled everything that wasn't ACPI and then I couldn't boot at all since the USB sticks wouldn't be recognized in full UEFI only mode. I changed back to legacy to boot and then download and burned another USB with etcher "sucks since Balina bullshit" and it also wouldn't boot when I enabled EFI only. I also notice when again booting into live session that gparted cannot label or do a lot stuff on the right click on any drive I had besides erase and start again but it would not allow full EFI partition "fucking motherboard", I had a thought and went to install grub2 and I saw it was installed and grub installed 2 times, not me the systems. Pacman would not allow me to remove the grub entries without removing Manjaro also so I thought of what would an old school Linux user do. I then downloaded Manjaro and used DD to install it on a USB stick. I then since the installer is in ram used gparted and prepared device for GPT partition, then made the / and /home and left the first 256mb of the drive EMPTY SPACE and rebooted. I went into bios and found a erase sata drive utility and ran that and then set all the setting when back in bios to UEFI ACPI and double checked every area of the bios. I also notice that the USB stick I just used DD on was red not just grey black so it was recognized as UEFI compliant. Went and set the USB to boot and it installed full 64bit no legacy hidden surprises and I'm on it now writing this with a clue I forgot about the efibootmgr working like a champ for the first time in a couple of months and this is why I will now search online for "does this bios suck" since that would have save a lot of bullshit though others including gigabyte use this shit bios but another one is out that is tabbed "best setup most user friendly". For the first time it just runs right and it feels good the lad gone and nothing tossing me an error when I run a program and I'm sure those programs I cursed for not installing all run good now since the entire ordeal was my fault but compared to my usual learning rate I think in 2 days I learned from various source what I usually learn in 4 to 6 mounts time. The setting I was referring to for the newbs that might not have this yet and for any vets that just didn't get exposed to shit bios's yet like mine with a windows trap hidden for the unsuspecting user. https://superuser.com/questions/1284392/what-exactly-is-uefi-with-csm-boot-mode
