I use an hp Pavilion Pent. 4. Current HD with Win. XP. I would say I’m an "intermediate user". Thanks in advance.

I would suggest to try out knoppix live cd and run it.
that would give you half idea of the drivers that are missing or how your linux would work like… when done..
Knoppix would not install anything on your system, but run directly from cd…

some good news…http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9584_22-826283.html
No knoppix don’t detect my hp printer while mandrake do
also mandrake is different than knoppix
Mandrake is good for beginner but in gerneral I find it slow and not stable
(my own opinion)
I recommend you to format your linux partition with reiserfs instead of ext3
