"It doesn't work" doesn't make it easy to provide advice unless we happen to have the exact model of laptop you have (and, btw, you didn't tell us that either...). Let us know more about what happens, and what doesn't. Especially include error messages and perhaps even the relevant sections of the boot text (dmesg output). We might be able to help you more then.
