Read the sticky threads at the top of this forum.

I read the sticky notes. In some cases it sounds like I can do this if I had access to a Mac but I don't. And in other cases it's like everyone is saying I have to hack my bios or system . at the same time it sounds like you are telling me my hardware is not good enough. Am I getting the wrong impression or am I just completely confused and lost . it would be nice if there was a guide for my particular system like there is for the dell and leveno systems and hp

Your hardware is workable.

You should probably use search to see if there is a guide for your specific hardware. Although, most of the tasks you need to complete are the same for any laptop with similar hardware.

It is easier to get going if you have access to a Mac. If you don't, you need to purchase a SL DVD from Apple, and use the iBoot method just to gain access to the Mac App Store to download Yosemite and prepare your USB installer.
