Choose your package
Multiple CHD Upgrade packages are available, including packages with HARDWARE upgrades as well as the basic OS installation and customization. There are also options that include setting up Virtual Machines to run Windows inside your Linux install, in case there is Windows-only software that you cannot live without!
Ship your machine
Once you have chosen your preferred package, simply ship your machine to CHD. Shipping instructions will be provided on the E-Mail that is sent to you AFTER your order has been completed.
Let us do the rest
CHD will keep you updated every step of the way, with the status of your machine, whether everything will be possible exactly as expected or if certain modifications to the package chosen are required, etc. We will then notify you when your machine is completed and being shipped back to you!
* –
not all BIOS on all machines will allow disabling ALL tracking
(CHD will do everything possible to
disable all tracking and unnecessary BIOS additions, but some machines
will not allow disabling things like
Intel Management Engine, etc. A full report
will be given to you upon completion regarding which changes were
possible and which were not
) Also, in certain cases disabling things like
‘Computrace’ tracking will not be possible at the BIOS level
, however, with Linux as the Operating System,
Computrace CANNOT FUNCTION. So even if disabling at the BIOS level isn’t possible
, the mere installation of an
unsupported OS for Computrace, makes the software unable to do its job tracking your machine
.
* – During the ‘beta’ phase
of this service, only LAPTOPS
will be allowed. Desktop machines are notoriously
difficult to ship without potentially damaging them, and therefore are much more difficult to include in the CHD Upgrade service.

and makes sense or not.
