Hi Arthur

The first question is "Does your PC have a UEFI BIOS?" If it doesn't,
then installation is only a matter of burning the ISO image to CD,
booting your PC from the CD (wait a while for the desktop to appear) and
double-clicking on the "Install Mint" icon.

If your PC does have a UEFI BIOS, then the following web page should be
helpful: http://www.rodsbooks.com/linux-uefi/.

If you need more step by step guidance, contact me off list and we could
arrange a phone call to talk you through it. Given my location
(Newbury), I suspect a face to face meeting could be tricky...

Best regards

Ian
