I got a Compaq Armada 7380DMT, it has a p1 266Ghz,12Gb or 4Gb hdd,64 ram, i dont know about the vga card lol. i tried Ubuntu but it crashed. So i dont know what you guys think....:o

There's one huge jump from 12GB to 4GB there...

I suggest something customizable, like Slackware or Debian, that doesn't automatically come with KDE or GNOME, and has a light text installer. Fluxbox or FVWM should run comfortably on that. You could try DSL, because I know for certain it will run on 32MB of RAM, but it is a bit skimpy.

True i tried live cds they mess up. I dont want to install them yet i mean if a Live Cd messes up what are the chances that the install will work right?

[Dark_Sniper*]

DSL is working lol.

[Dark_Sniper*]

But i still want to try and install something lol.

O.K A 12GB HDD? 64Meg ram.....Laptop, your going to struggle here buddy You Like Ubuntu?

If so I'd reccomend this, it comes as a live CD but it has an option to install it to your HDD

if your More KDE inclined try PCLinuxOS this also comes Live, with an option to install it to your HDD

Another Option is this Dark,

This gives you the Live CDs that can be installed to the HDD
