Whoa. I didn’t know this was a thing! Windows live CD! That’s awesome. Thank you for this! I managed to get MMtools working with wine. But definitely gonna try a few things with this since I’m getting some security verification failures with the modified bios 👀

I don't understand why linux doesn't get all the love patches like Windows.

Honestly. I suspect in this scenario, the popular use case for enabling Resizable Bar is for gaming. I was hoping to improve my video transcoding experience. 🥸

Linux, thanks to steam, is better at gaming than windows, esecially for older games. Proton ftw

Love Steam for that. That reminds me… gotta get me a Steam Deck!
