thank you for the reply, I am using a x86 system, last I checked ubuntu had high requirements, my pc specs are 2.0GHZ Celeron Processor, 2GB ram, 128MB Graphics. and the thing is I think that maybe VRAM(graphic i mean) is not enough (128MB) and because of that when I watch a video, it crosses the limit and causes flickering, let me know what u think

It doesn't hurt to try, just to make sure. But if you feel the OS may be too much, you can also try OpenSuse. Its less heavy on the resources.

Linux will be faster than Windows in almost every case. But yeah, you're right, I forgot about the low specifications of your laptop. You'd better use lubuntu instead of plain ubuntu, since your specifications are low-end. This will make your pc run again :)

I've updated my post to include instructions for Lubuntu instead.
