Just install Linux in its default mode and choose the suggested generic
components and see how that works.  If Linux boots to a basic login
screen., then you are part of the way there.  If the generic settings
don't work, then, and assuming you havn't destroyed your windows OS, then
boot back into windows and see what "generic drives, i any, it used to
run your system.  Better still, do that before trying linux.

Best of luck..Louis
