Run a live USB and test it. Make it persistent if you think you need some third party drivers.

I dont have a usb drive, i was just gonna use a small partition from my desktop pc to use as a "boot drive" in order to install linux on the laptops hdd. But if thats the best way i guess i'll just buy a 4 gig drive

Can it run Windows XP? If yes, then you're good.
