- VT_Drew 9y ago>I do not reinstall "the OS". >it works superbly with some Arch Linux on it. These 2 statements contradict each other. Either you reinstall the OS (OK maybe you didn't technically REinstall, but most people would call installing a different OS "reinstalling the OS") or you still running the default OS.
