  • What are your system specifications? The latest Ubuntu LTS should work out-of-the-box on most Intel chips. – Archisman Panigrahi Jan 21 '23 at 16:05
  • What is your intel chips? Intel's IA64 was abandoned long ago now, by both Intel and even by GNU/Linux, so you'll need to be specific. Most intel manufactured chips today are amd64 (also called x86_64) as the AMD 64-bit system won in the marketplace. (Your system likely wasn't intel's IA64 as it mostly sold for server use, though desktops were told briefly - but you've provided no actual specifics.. My current 2008 dell using intel chips runs all releases of Ubuntu fine by the way) – guiverc Jan 21 '23 at 22:09

Some specific recommendations for you to improve your question: are you looking to fix a Windows PC and remove malware (more appropriate in another forum).

All linux distros work on Intel chips.

This forum prefers and understands Ubuntu.

Download the Iso, copy it unto a stick (for that you'll need a working computer).

Else buy a stick.

When installing disable secureboot in you UEFI and make sure that the usb drive is in the boot order.
