Hi Mike Keep in mind I am not a Dog handler, most of my distros are Debian based [as that seems to be the most popular base these days] Although the non-free BCM drivers are available to all Debian based distro's I have found there is a split between distros who do and those who do not include...

you may not know the title, but I would be surprised if you have not heard extracts of it before...full orchestra

OK then go back to my list of common reasons and work your way down reasons 1 to 4 and check your method [use my how do i install guide]

OK so a quick check shows me it's an M2 SSD first, it' is a Linux compatible drive [used by Lenovo ] There are 2 different M2 slots M2B and M2M and 3 different pin configurations for SSD's M2B, M2M, and M2BM Yours is an MB,[hybrid to fit either B or M slots] it is the slowest of the options...

State make and full model number, I will check my list [buts its not complete]

Why Linux fails to load, common reasons 1] Corrupt download [check SHA sum] 2] bad burn to installation medium [try again] [if you used Rufus then try Balina-etcher 3] Wind 8.2 and higher quick start/fast boot or secure boot not disabled [doesn't normally apply to older versions] 4] defective...

You have an entry level machine, from 2018 [or thereabouts] it is capable of running any distribution you choose, However it will not be the fastest for its age, I recommend you consider either a lightweight or medium weight build, some which may suite include Light weight,. Antix Linux lite...

Some distributions say they are Secure boot compatible, but It's not always so, so I always say disable to avoid possible problems this is a new development, I have not used Windows for many years, this is a new development of which I know little, except its an additional bit of control...

If you wish to upgrade the CPU my list [below] of compatible ones show the increase in speed over the i5-6500, the best option is the i7-6700 as the 6700K runs faster BUT it also runs much hotter [98 W] and will cause heat dispersal problems in such a small case Core i7-6700 4 8 3.4 GHz 4...

No if you have not done a SFF one before. But they are all similar whatever brand, and I do have the advantage of having worked on most case types over the years of repairing/upgrading for friends and family, you just have to be a bit more careful as everything is crammed in. oh check the ram...

They are simple like my HP, make sure there are no security screws along the top back flange of the top cover if so remove.you release the top cover by moving the plastic locking tab at the back, then remove the front cover, this gives access to the HD tray, there should be something like a...
