Re: Linux OS on Compaq CQ50 laptops
Describe your problem and what you've tried. What distribution were you trying to install? What are the exact error messages you've received? Were you completely replacing what is on the laptop now?
It sounds like you want to install Windows XP as well. We need a better idea of what operating systems you want on your computer.
