   Good idea, before you do anything get and write down   
   hardware details, I think Windows has nice utilities to do   
   that.  Especially get all details about your Video Chips,   
   Wireless Chip(s).  You will need that information.   
      
   You should then go here: https://distrowatch.com/search.php   
   and put in your requirements.  Here we probably have   
   different feelings about distros than you.   
      
   Pretty much all Linux distros are secure enough for home use.   
   Just leave no services open.  Also Linux is much different   
   than Windows, so you will need to learn things.  There are   
   plenty of tutorials on-line for Linux.   
      
   For example, Slackware meets all your needs for me.  I find   
   it far easier than every other distro, and I believe it is   
   just as secure as any other Linux.
