Hello everyone! If anyone knows how to remove the Ordissimo operating system to switch to Windows or Linux because I can't download anything! I can't do anything with this PC! I found the equivalent of the F12 key, but I don't see how to boot from the USB drive to install a new OS?
Knowing that the PC is well equipped, it should support another OS.

Hello,
knowing that the PC is well equipped, so it would support another OS.
Just not. Since the first discussions regarding this claim, it has never been shown that it is possible.
Some information indicates that it is a Debian (Linux) distribution,
But in order to even boot from the CD-ROM drive, one would need to access the BIOS, which is prohibited by the manufacturer, who presents this requirement, as well as the impossibility of installing programs, and in no way Windows programs, which are incompatible, as advantages of their closed and therefore unchangeable system according to them.
But above all, assuming a dedicated and motivated tinkerer manages to penetrate the intricacies of this system's configuration, they would need to have all the necessary drivers (motherboard, network card, graphics card, keyboard, mouse).
These drivers being the property of the company, they do not distribute them for their proprietary system, so one cannot expect them to develop them on demand for even one distribution among the several hundred Linux distributions.
Here are the topics that have addressed the issue in a relevant way:

Research on an Ordissimo ISO to download and thus on the associated methodology that would allow installing another system has not yielded results to date (except perhaps from Ordissimo resellers, but I doubt they go beyond selling CDs).

where this observation is made:
Impossible to access the BIOS.
and the suggestion to change the keyboard, but one would still need to have installed a normal OS and have sufficient knowledge to configure the keyboard in console mode
Finally, an article from the blog of a pioneer who ran aground on the shores of this unexplored continent:

Needless to say, ten years later, I don't think it's useful to reignite the debate on free systems compared to proprietary systems, which will not solve the problem, namely that there is currently no known solution.

Hello
There isn't going to be much to add to georges97's post... he has clearly defined the problem with this type of equipment.
I just want to add: To bypass the system, you don't have to look far, you need to replace the hard drive, then with the new one, check if the installation of Windows is possible.
The most "permissible" thing to attempt is W7 (no need to try W10).
But this will be contingent on two things:
- That the BIOS accepts booting from the new disk (and I'm not talking about the installation media) because as mentioned, access to the BIOS is heavily restricted.
- That W7 (if the installation succeeds) manages to find the main drivers, which is not guaranteed.
Patience and perseverance..........and accept that in the end, it may not work.

Thanks, Georges! In the end, if nothing works, I'll sell this PC!
But for my part, I bought it for less than 200 euros second-hand from an old man who only went on Le Bon Coin!
The PC has potential; I'm going to try to remove Ordissimo and install Linux instead!
I saw that someone managed to do it??
I'm an electromechanical technician, so I know the hardware well, but I'm quite lost with software and so on...
If anyone has other opinions, I'm all ears! Thanks, everyone.
