But did you try putting Arch on your uncles PC? Seems like you'd have run into more of the same.
I've been an Arch user on my main machines for years, which is exactly why I'm hesitant to buy that it's "simpler" and less prone to issues than a distro like Mint.
Im sure that arch would probably cause more issues than mint in the long run, i was just saying Mint or any other beginner distros are not exactly 100% issue free as some would claim them to be

That's just Linux in general at that point though -- and really wasn't what I was responding to.
