Congrats dude 
Sounds like a bit of a pain in the arse to get sorted, but it's probably going to be worth it.

cos it came with linux and i dont like it, too used to windows and i chose xp as i am having trouble with wide screen drivers for my screen and touchsreen interface in 98
i just need it working for 2moro night, then im working on speeding boot up (probs 98 again lol)
