I decided to see if my old computer could handle a Ubuntu upgade, and 1st I tried to run it off the Live CD, which it did but wouldn't let me login, so I thought I might as well install and see how it goes and it does go.
I did the online upgrade from version 7.10 which went smoothlly, not like my XP install, and I still need to upgrade my graphics card, but I needed to do that anyway, will also put a bit more Ram in and when I upgrade the hard drive on my XP machine, I shall move the old hard drive over to this machine.
I picked up a WinTv PCI card yesterday, which I got free from freecycle (again).
But I don't know how long it will take me to get working on Linux, though I know it works as it is in my XP machine at moment and if we had a decent TV reception in this area it would probably work alright.
