Pre-Installation

1. Replace original wifi chipset with a DW1560 (Recommended) or use a USB wifi adapter (Not recommended)
2. You will have to wipe the entire disk
3. Make sure to upgrade or downgrade to BIOS 311 (BIOS 312 doesn't work)
4. Change your BIOS settings:

• Disable VT-d
• Enable Legacy USB Support
• Disable Secure Boot
• Enable Launch CSM
• Set DVMT to 64M
• Change boot priority to USB

5. For Installation go to the wiki.
