Think about a linux installation on a removable usb drive or a CD or DVD. You won’t install Linux directly in your hard drive or whatever but in a removable device. With it you can boot your laptop in it and use it almost as if it was actually installed on your laptop. It will let you check for hardware compatibility and that sort of thing. Also it won’t be as smooth as if it was actually installed on your laptop but for the looks of it even that way you would notice a huge difference with whatever you have installed on your laptop right now. There are many linux flavors to test, and maybe people around here can give you better examples, but at the tip of my tongue right now there’s ubuntu or fedora, which have great hardware support by default.
