i don't see any reason why it would not install or run properly on this particular laptop.
it would be helpful to know: what kind of error messages or performance issues did your brother mention regarding the previous installs (or attempted installs)? this brings me to my next question: does the OS install at all? or does it fail DURING the install?
thanks
