I just fucking can’t with windows anymore. I’d preach about it but I imagine you’ve heard it all. I have minimal computer expertise.
I use my PC mainly for streaming, downloading torrent files who’s copyright you don’t need to worry about, and light gaming. Usually just messing with New Vegas mods.
If someone knows of a good YouTube channel or guide or something written for andelder millennial caveman I would be grateful.
Edit: after having been recommended mint OS and giving it a quick Google, I got this! I haven’t fucked with anything linux scince the early aughts. And holy shit has that come a ways. Guess I remembered back and got a little intimidated. Mint is downloading now. As a small f.u. I booted up edge to do it. Ty you beautiful people!
if you use obs for streaming i’ve had better stability out of it on linux than on mac or windows. probably says more about obs than those oses though.
new vegas is gold support listed on protondb, so it probably works fine
do a dual boot install so you can go back when you need to. that means before you install inux, chkdisk, defrag and turn off bitlocker.
make a backup.
