    Hi all.

    Before i do anything, i am going to install the free Ububtu OS from their web replacing windows.

    So:

    1. Will my games work on Ubuntu?

    they are:
    Ship Sim 2008
    GTA IV
    UK Truck Simulator
    Spore

    2. If so, How to I boot from my USB that I downloaded the files to?

    Thanks


    [EDIT] Actually, i have found that you can install it alongside windows so i can run either of them. So would that be ok with my dv6000 specs?
