Hi DesertAbba, If you do not have a USB DVD-ROM drive you will need to follow mbirger's link to make a USB bootable Windows installer. I am not sure if CompuLab has updated their Linux Mint image since I purchased my MintBox (September 2013) but if they haven't, you will need to repartition the hard...

Hi slavazh, The UEFI upgrade image provided by CompuLab is designed to be "burned" onto a USB key. If BIOS does not list any options to boot off devices other than the Windows boot manager I would recommend removing your SSD and plugging in the USB key with the firmware upgrade on it. The Intense PC...

fdisk -l /dev/sdX Where X is a letter identifying the disk. The identifying letter will depend on how many devices you have installed in the computer. On my MintBox, since I only have the hard drive it shipped with installed, the device is /dev/sda. If you have a hard drive and an SSD installed you...

Hi Sivan, Could you please dump the partition table of the SSD? I also installed a different distribution on my MintBox (though not LMDE) and my partition table looks like this: Disk /dev/sda: 465.8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical...

Disclaimer: I'm not running Windows on my Intense PC but I've seen this issue with other Windows computers that have digital and analog audio outputs. From this screen: http://www.fit-pc.com/forum/download/file.php?id=312 You should be able to view the properties of the Headphones sound device and s...

Intense PC machines are very robust in terms of RAM memories! But please be sure you purchase the memories from a reliable sources - best from manufacturer itself or authorized distributors. There are many online dealers that sell refurbished (no one throws them away), RMA'd memories or simply prod...

As mbirger states CompuLab is unaware of any incompatibilities with the IPC and memory. However community testing has shown that this is not the case, the IPC is incredibly picky about memory. I went through the same experience until I purchased a kit that was certified to work by CompuLab. My exper...

Hi mintman, Are you using MBR or UEFI booting? Since UEFI it is no longer sufficient to just set the device as the primary boot device in the boot order. To boot a UEFI disk you need an EFI system partition with a bootloader and you also need to insert a boot loader reference into nvram using the ef...

Hi txpc1, I installed Arch linux on my MintBox 2 and have not experienced any of the issues you mention here. WiFi, Bluetooth and sound work out of the box with the default Arch install. Here's my output from lspci: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family High Def...

Hi slackcc, The MintBox 2 ships with legacy boot mode enabled, which means it will only boot off of USB keys which have a boot loader installed to the MBR. I'm unfamiliar with the latest Untangle builds, so I can't speak to whether they are EFI-boot capable or not. In the Intense PC configuration ut...
