Xyphoid processGot these two <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Toughbooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Toughbooks</a>. One has <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WindowsXP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsXP</a> (but there's a password on it). The other has <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Windows2000" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows2000</a>, but hangs at the splash screen. Want to install <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> Lite (only OS that's still 32 bit I could find), but laptop doesn't recognize the USB stick and I can't change the boot order in the BIOS.
