Default Alternative Operating Systems to Windows

Dan and Gfre, have not connected my desktop to the internet in two years. It is not set up for wireless. If I had to, I think I could set it up again. But I think I would rather try some alternate routes.

If I bought a DVD-R drive, would my 2006 desktop computer be able to operate it? I am plenty handy at replacing drives. The MoBo is a Socket 478 MSI PM8M-V VIA P4M800 Serial Parallel port,

Thank you notbob and others for the guides.

Norman, I am considering Puppy Linux. Thank you.

I am fine tinkering. I am writing this latest adventure off as another home improvement project.
