As before, the Menu layout had changed somewhat and again when I click the "help" button, I get the Screensaver screen and when I click the "about Xfce" button, I am taken back to the Login screen.I didn't make any other adjustments, not sure what to do now.
When I get to the "Use As" box, I am only offered "Ext4 journaling file system" not "Ext4 file system"Is this the same thing, please?
Update...I successfully managed a clean re-install and re-booted.Theonly thing I then changed was the language to English UK in the Language Support screen, made the Regional format English UK, applied both changes systemwide and then re-booted.As before, the Menu layout had changed somewhat and again when I click the "help" button, I get the Screensaver screen and when I click the "about Xfce" button, I am taken back to the Login screen.I didn't make any other adjustments, not sure what to do now.
I just had this nagging feeling that choosing "English UK" as my preferred setting was the cause of the problems - is there any reason that this might be the culprit, or am I being paranoid?
Hi ValtamThank you for your advice, sorry for being thick - you mean boot from USB, then choose "install alongside windows" as though I didn't have Linux already installed?
