    Hi!
    I have a terribly frustrating problem. After an unsuccessful attempt to install Linux MINT on my Window notebook (Samsung touchscreen laptop), Windows does not load any more. Moreover, most drivers seem to have been lost, too, including builtin monitor and SD card-reader. I can only inter BIOS and see what's there via an external TV screen (HDMI). Boot options (priority) are empty.
    Is there any chance to restore my Windows partition at all, or should I just take the laptop to Samsung?
    I'd really appreciate any help.

    Hi

    You could try to use the startup repair from a Windows boot disk or USB drive
