Have you recently upgraded your computer to Windows 10? Then, you might have run into the problem when graphical user interface and some drivers simply do not work.

When you say "dual boot," there are two OS or operating systems installed on your hard drive. A dual boot computer system allows you to either use one of the two OS you have on your device. So, when you turn on your computer, a boot program shows a menu, giving you an option of which OS you desire to use.

You may ask, "What is an operating system"? An OS is essential software that runs your computer. It controls your device's processes and memory, as well as both its hardware and software.
