Moderators Jake Lo Posted March 12, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 12, 2014 1366x768 Click on E6220 of my signature file for the boot pack, has same specs as your system. Use myHack method to build and install your system. Make sure to set your bios to the default first, apply and then go back and set SATA Opertion to AHCI for best result. Alternatively, you could follow npjohnson's guide here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
