I built my PC about 4 months ago (build spec listed below). I have windows 8.1 on my SSD and a 20GB partition with Ubuntu. While playing DIII and watching netflix on my second monitor my computer suddenly shutdown. When I restart my computer on the windows 8 side as soon as the desktop loads it goes to a blue screen saying "your pc ran into a problem and needs to restart. We are just collecting some error info, and then we'll restart for you". I want to try and repair my OS but I need an ISO to get the installation media. Windows has the mediacreationtool.exe, but it doesn't work in linux so I can't download it. I have tried to run it with wine but I am not very experienced with wine so I don't really know what I am doing and I haven't found a step-by-step on how to do this in wine.


If you need the installation media, you need to use the stupid "tool" to download the iso, which is a .exe, I cannot get it to run in PoL properly. I really miss digital river site where all Windows .iso files were just listed with direct links.


Yeah, I struggled getting Windows 7 onto a usb drive using Ubuntu, so I just gave up and used my Windows 8 laptop to do it. Never tried it with Windows 8. It just disappoints me that I have to install Windows in the first place, but those AMD drivers just aren't to snuff yet.
