Unfortunately that tells us nothing useful, because we are not Lenevo. Please tell us the type number or the model number. The type number is usually on a sticker next to the serial number, as seen in the link I gave you previously. And most of the ThinkCentre models have large text somewhere on them like "ThinkCentre XYZ" where XYZ is the model number. Previously you wrote: > Can anyone tell me how to get Linux on this machine. That statement sounded like you don't care about what is on the computer, and that your goal is simply to do a new installation of Linux and overwrite everything that was on the computer previously. But now when you write: > and I have no idea what is inside of it since even windows won't load > without a code, the problem is he cannot get to his email.

Can you explain why do you want to do that? It is very hard for us to help you if we do not understand what your goal is, so we need you to clearly tell us what your goal is.
