Put the laptop hard drive in your desktop instead of the desktop hard drive. Do a regular Debian install, following the instructions. Put the hard drive back into the laptop. Boot it up and see if it works, chances are that it will. If there are any problems, make sure you search the web first. Don't post problems to mailing lists unless you can be very, very specific about it and the hardware you are using. And don't post the same message over and over again.
