It's common for virtual machines to experience audio delays. Have you noticed similar problems with your Linux Mint "Sarah" in VirtualBox and the Windows 10 preview? Your main audio source is your ODAC, which has been a challenge to get stable.

No, I haven't installed the Virtualbox guest additions yet.

Decided to experiment with dual-booting Linux. Nearly finished formatting the entire disk but failed. Updated: Realizing the problems I mentioned, I proceeded with the dual-boot setup. Interesting and unsettling experience. I assumed there was a way to add a Linux partition during installation, didn’t expect to need volume reduction in Windows first. I stopped the Linux install quickly. Once completed, the system automatically switched to trial mode. I was about to reinstall Windows 7 when I noticed my System Reserved partition still present. I stopped the installation, hoping it hadn’t been altered. The Windows 7 screen looked surprisingly pleasant. Almost panicked, I made a backup using the built-in tool. I usually perform regular manual backups of important files, then detach the drive. Installing a fresh OS proved time-consuming. From this, I plan to include periodic on-demand backups in my routine. I generally don’t like image backups because there’s always a risk the backed-up OS might contain undetected malware. I’m pretty sure this install was secure, but safety isn’t absolute.
