    Is stealth mode on the m17x R2 machines just a Windows thing or does it persist in the hardware?

    For instance, if I enable it in Windows and then boot to a Linux partition or from a USB os, is it still on?

    It's software only. But you could get stuck in it within Linux if you cdon't have a way to enable the OSD.
