I would make that my mission.  Are you booting from USB?  Have you tried a live DVD?  Install directly on the HD?  Any error messages?

If it were me I'd want to know why your current laptop will not

The laptop I got is no good with Linux.  I put it on and
sometimes it
boots but usually not. The USB port I can boot from sometimes is
one
port and other times another. I got $300-350 to play with. Which
laptop can I put linux and kodi on? WOuld making this Lenovo
Thinkpad
100% linux be the best bet?
