Hm. You ot a script of dumbed-down so I can print it off and hand it to my dad when he comes by to ask what the hell I'm cursing at in here?
I know I have to do the 1950s office analogy a lot when talking about the simplest Windows installs. Directories are the drawers of a filing cabinet, the drives are the cabinets themselves, etc.
I already know I need to get a new Wireless adapter for my rig, since I was looking around for drivers for my dongle in Linux and found mention that only the XP drivers can be made to work in Linux... and I have 64-bit architecture. Seems Broadcomm manufactured the chips in my particular version, and they don't like FOSS Drivers. Not. One. Bit.
