As said, this is an English-only forum; post your question in English. And just based on the title, you should read the "Question Guidelines" and "How to ask a smart question" links...this is *NOT URGENT* for anyone here; we are volunteers so asking for/expecting 'urgent' help is fairly rude.

You'll need a 32bit distribution. Check this out: https://itsfoss.com/32-bit-linux-distributions/

Hola y Bienvenido a LQ!

Te recomendaria MX linux x32. Ya cuando obtengas mas experiencia puedes tratar Debian x32.

Yo uso Debian con Mate desktop en mi maquina virtual.

Buena suerte!

Hello and Welcome to LQ!

I would recommend MX linux 32x. Once you get some experience working with MX, you can try to install Debian x32.

I use Debian with Mate Desktop on my virtual machine.

Good luck!

I'd suggest Bodhi Linux (legacy version) or Debian with LXDE.

As you are likely aware, a 32-bit machine with 1.5GB ram is quite old, and although possible to run a modern linux distro, it won't be very fast if you try to open multiple tabs or apps at once.... and some proprietary software (outside official repositories) won't be even be available for 32-bit.

(And as advised, please change the topic of this thread to something relevant for more people to read it).
