I have an old computer that isn't very reliable for me anymore. Specs below.



Ubuntu is NOT an option. I have indeed used it before. I have gotten a type of hall-of-mirrors effect which did not allow me to properly use it.



It would also be nice if I can use my Netgear wireless internet adapter as well. "NETGEAR RangeMax(TM) Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WPN111" is the driver I'm using for the moment.



If I switch OSs, it's going to be all or nothing. I'm not planning on dual-booting. I'm just tired of Windows XP. It's really unreliable now.



And no, getting a new computer is not an option for the moment. My financial situation is getting pretty bad.
