Laptops :: Booting problem on Toshiba Satellite 1800 514

Well, I tried with DSL-N (the bigger), I spent several days... nothing to do, same messages and behaviour, it seems hw incompatibility or unsupported.
According from info I found searching internet it may be impossible to install DSL (both distros) on my laptop.
I mean: no one has installed DSL on hd, while others (and really bigger) distros have been succesfull.
I give up.
If someone has been successful, please let me know.
Thank all
