Install Windows 11 & Linux on same computer 

Installing Windows 11 and Linux on the same laptop requires a bit of technical expertise, but it can be done with the following steps: 

• Create a bootable USB drive for each operating system. You can download the latest version of Windows 11 and the Linux distribution of your choice from their respective official websites. To create a bootable USB drive, you can use software such as Rufus or UNetbootin. 

• Backup your important data from your laptop to an external drive to avoid data loss during the installation process. 

• Make sure your laptop meets the minimum system requirements for both operating systems. Check the system requirements for Windows 11 and the Linux distribution you have chosen. 

• Insert the USB drive containing the Windows 11 installer and boot from it. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Windows 11 on your laptop. 

• Once Windows 11 is installed, insert the USB drive containing the Linux installer and boot from it. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the Linux distribution of your choice. During the installation process, you will be prompted to choose a partition for the Linux installation. Choose a partition that is separate from the one on which Windows 11 is installed. 

• After the Linux installation is complete, reboot your laptop. You should see a boot menu that allows you to choose between Windows 11 and Linux. 

• If the boot menu does not appear, you may need to modify the boot order in the BIOS settings of your laptop. Consult your laptop's manual or manufacturer's website for instructions on how to access the BIOS settings. 

That's it! You should now be able to boot into either Windows 11 or Linux on your laptop
