How to Disable Driver Singnature Verfication on 64-bit Windows 8, 8.1, 10 OR [Solved] Error A digitally signed driver is required | Abhishek Singh



Hey guys many of you faced problem during installation of any software or drivers that are not digitally signed. One of them in Adb Driver Installer.

Today I am gonna show you how to disable this Verification on Windows 8 and above.

To disable driver signature verification, we’re going to need to get into the Troubleshooting options from the boot manager. The easiest way to bring this screen up is using a secret trick.
Simply select Restart from the power options menu (on Windows 8 that’s under Charms or on the login screen, and in Windows 10 it’s on the Start Menu).
Hold down the SHIFT key while you click Restart.



(Again, you can use this trick on any of the power menus in Windows 8 or 10, whether on the login screen, Charms bar, Start Menu, or Start Screen)
Once your computer has rebooted you will be able to choose the Troubleshoot option.

Then head into Advanced options.

Then Startup Settings.

Since we are modifying boot time configuration settings, you will need to restart your Computer one last time.

image



Finally, you will be given a list of startup settings that you can change. The one we are looking for is “Disable driver signature enforcement”. To choose the setting, you will need to press the F7 key.

That’s all there is to it. Your PC will then reboot and you will be able to install unsigned drivers without any error message. :]

Thanks for reading guys.
Happy Coding, Happy Developing.

hey guys !!!
       many of you have face a problem that if you formate any drive with windows after installation of linux in any drive then grub doesn't start on startup..

This is because windows boot loader has replace the grub and also it doesn't like to show the list of any Linux OS installed on your machine.

sudo mount  /dev/sdXY /mnt

where X is usually a and Y is any integer..



for checking this just open menu and search for 'Disk' now find the Ext4 partition and see the address and value of X and Y. see the image below

see the 2nd line below the volumes figure.
so mine in "sda6" 
now type in the terminal

sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev &&
sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts &&
sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc &&
sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys

then type 

sudo chroot /mnt

now,

grub-install /dev/sdX [X=a in my case]
grub-install --recheck /dev/sdX
update-grub

now done.. and we just have to unmount all those partition. so,
type

exit &&
sudo unmount /mnt/sys &&
sudo unmount /mnt/proc &&
sudo unmount /mnt/dev/pts &&
sudo unmount /mnt/dev &&
sudo unmount /mnt

now hit <enter>

Booting in Grub rescue mode [solved] [Easy way] [without any external booting device] [Part 2] | Abhishek Singh

Hello guys...
         In my just previous post, I left my work half done. {See my just previous post}
as you have to do that typing all the time when you boot your machine.

now it is fixed....

so if you stuck in grub rescue mode then go to my previous post and then come here.. 

 there i told you how can you get out of the grub rescue mode and come to normal OS list of grub.. now open the linux OS installed on your machine. {in my case it's linux mint 17.2}


open the terminal

type the command "sudo fdisk -l" {without quotes}
now type your password and hit <enter>
see the image below



now see the first line of the result in my case it is "Disk /dev/sda"
maybe in your case it is "Disk /dev/sdb" but whatever it is you have to use it.

now type the command "sudo update-grub"



 probably in your case you don't find the line "Found background image : ----- "
this is the custom background of grub.. ;)

I'll tell you how to do this in next post ;)

so after this command type "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"

here i make the word 'sda' strong cause if your disk is sda then you type here sda if sdb then sdb and if sdc then sdc. [please be careful]
I told you earlier in this post how to check it [i.e. by sudo fdisk -l command]

check the image.



This is it. You are all Up. ;]
Thanks for reading guys. Happy problem solving. :) 
Feel free to comment here if you get any problem, i will help you.

Booting in Grub rescue mode Multiboot with linux [solved] [Part 1] | Abhishek Singh

Hey buddies...
                    Today i'm gonna solve your problem. if your machine in booting into grub rescue mode due to deleted partition..

:: this tutorial works only if you have misplaced grub or corrupted grub and having more than one Linux OS installed in your machine (i recommend this for safety from these type of problems)..

so here is the case : the active grub on this machine was of fedora and i also have install Linux mint (multiboot). by mistake i deleted the partition of fedora from linux mint and now my machine boots is grub rescue mode cause of it cann't find the grub folder.

This post is for how to change the default location of grub and start system normally.

So, you boot your system and it show something like cann't find the file error.

type "ls"  without quotes (plz type all the commands without quotes)

it will list all your partition..

now test your partition for which is correct by typing "ls (hdX,msdosY) [X,y are numbers]
for the linux partition it will say ext2 type for other like windows unknown
in my case (hd0,msdos6) is the linux partition you can test all for partition and try.

see the image for reference



now i have my target partition
type "set root=(hdX,msdosY)"  [In my case X=0, Y=6]
again type "set prefix=(hdX,msdosY)/boot/grub [in my case X=0, Y=6]
type "insmod normal"
again type "normal" and hit <enter>.
you can see the image for reference.

now you are up ;]

but there is one problem which is unsolved by me now, you have to do this all the time whenever you boots your machine. well I'm on it.

thanks for reading my article. 
and if you have any problem doing this please feel free to comment here I'll surely help you. Thanks see you all later :)

Solution of Black Blank Display after booting and Brightness control Problem in Linux mint (Ubuntu) | Abhishek Singh

hey guys !!! 
                    Today i'm with a new problem you all have faced/facing in Linux (Mint or Ubuntu).

the problem is you are not able to control your brightness either with you keyboard's shortcut buttons or by brightness bar in power setting.
[specially in Dell laptops with AMD display card.]


[For Black Blank display after booting read the last section of this Post.]


you may also face this problem in laptops with other graphics card...


But i'm here with AMD card and Linux mint OS, you can try it on other as well...

firstly install proprietary driver (fglrx or fglrx-updates for AMD/ATI card)

If you are able to on you Linux mint.. 
         
Go to System setting > driver manager you are prompted for password, go on. (Linux mint)



  Otherwise start it in compatibility mode by selecting option from grub boot loader (if you don't have grub as if you install only Linux mint or Ubuntu on your PC then go to last section of this article) and then continue.

now you have to select driver fglrx and click apply change.. (Internet connection required)



(Just copy and paste the codes below to avoid errors.)

Open you terminal and type without quotes >>>
              
   "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub"                    (if asked for password type it and say ok)

now in open "gedit" window find the line looks like >>>

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""





...... and change it to this >>>

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor"




...... then save and exit.

Now open terminal and type without quotes >>>

"sudo update-grub"

you are asked for password in terminal type it and press enter (The password typing is fully invisible not even dots are shown in terminal)


when finished close the terminal and reboot your machine..

Here you go : your problem is solved :)


if you don't have grub... (Installing fglrx display driver without starting Linux mint in compatibility mode)


         Just open you machine and wait to boot up the OS now it goes blank or shows X server error or something like that then press ctrl+alt+F2 

it should come to command line interface. Here enter your username and password and then type >>>

              "sudo apt-get install fglrx" (without quotes and internet connection required)

              after this you are asked for confirmation press 'y' and then enter..

Now wait for the process to complete and then reboot your machine by typing >>>


               "sudo reboot"  type you password and then enter 

here you go, now you can configure your PC for brightness control mentioned above


Thanks for reading..
