Hi Andy,

I'm sure there are several people able to make better suggestions.  
However, my two pennies worth.  I've tried Fedora and Suse. 

I would suggest trying a live disc such as Knoppix on your machine 
first.  You can have a look around Linux and see how all your hardware 
works with it.  When you take the disc out you are back to the way you 
were before.

If all your hardware worked and you still want to have a go.  You have 
to decide which distribution you want to use, if you want to do a clean 
install on your present machine, if you want to share Linux on a machine 
or install it on another machine.  (Lots of advice on the web).

Really important make sure your modem works with Linux, so you can still 
access the web for advice.

I started off with Redhat 9, then Fedora Core 2.  I am now using Suse 
10.0.  I quite like Suse, but I don't know if that is because I learned 
alot along the way.  I find the way it installs programs really good as 
I never got it sussed before.

With further information the list can probably offer more relevant advice.

Regards

Janet
