try knoppix! It is good because you can't write to ntfs (can be enabled), so no worries about windows dying on you as you can't delete anything by mistake. Also, it has all the packages you will ever need already installed on the cd. Knoppix is a live linux which means you don't need to install, you just pop in the dvd or the cd into the drive and boot up knoppix.org

I believe Ubuntu offers similar functionality although I do recall having to download some extra software for it that wasn't include don the CD, mostly drivers or media support files.

Have you searched for compatible Linux drivers? You might also be able to use Windows drivers with something like NDISWrapper.
