Trouble with Dual Booting: Windows Keeps Loading

Asked By TechWhiz2023 On

I'm having issues with my dual boot setup. I've followed all the steps: I downloaded the ISO, flashed it using Ventoy, and went into Linux Mint to set it up by managing the MOK and enrolling the key from the disk. After I reach the step where it says to remove the USB and hit enter, my system just boots back into Windows instead of loading Linux. I've disabled fast boot as suggested, but now it's like my hard drive isn't even recognized when I try to boot again. Any suggestions on what to check or do next?

Seems like there's a conflict with how Ventoy is set up. It's possible your installation is in MBR format while Windows might be using GPT. You might want to check that and try reinstalling again.

Make sure to check the boot order in your BIOS settings. You want to set your Linux partition as the primary boot option, so it doesn't default back to Windows.

I tried swapping the boot order, but it still boots straight into Windows. I even went through the installation process again.

I've heard some users have success installing with an ethernet cable connected, so if you haven't tried that yet, it could be worth a shot! Also, remember to remove the boot media after the installation.
