Solve : installing an operating system?

Answer»

I bought a used Compaq armada m700 laptop Pentium 2 with no operating SYSTEM, when I try to load Ubuntu program it starts to load but then goes to a black screen and the computer doesn't respond. the computer originally had the windows 98 install. any IDEAS?It's most likely a hardware mismatch... I would verify with http://www.xubuntu.org/ as I know they have very limited hardware support. Or you might try a different FLAVOR of *NIX such as RED Hat, SOLARIS, or FreeBSD
