Please Help!

I recently bought an Acer Aspire One note book because it was relatively cheap and I planned to use it for very basic things, ie playing poker and downloading songs. The problem is it runs on linux and none of the poker software, torrent clients, or 3g modem which I purchased, are compatible. I know very little about computers and was looking for some advice. Is there any way I could wipe the system and replace it with windows? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

XP Drivers for acer one models 150 and 110.

After that you need an external usb CD/DVD drive to put your copy of windows into.

You run the XP install and then you install the drivers. Easy if you have done this before.
