on the side of the machine is a little sticker that says
"designed for microsoft windows XP"
if you google for images of them words you will see the words and logo sticker

any imput is appreciated

Hi.

Mandriva should be fine on that machine. Looks like a very standard PC.

Dave

yup..it will work.. dual boot also..remember that linux works with a HUGE number of architectures, and your computer is standard x86...so no worries

thankyou for the conformation, there was a few doubts with the microsoft attachment

Not a problem, that is just a tricky strategy to keep you from liberating the PC.
