Hey experts, I could really use some help here. I picked up an official retail version of Windows 10 on a USB drive, but my old desktop is giving me nothing but grief. It’s running a Gigabyte 6-quad-s series motherboard, just 2 GB of RAM, a 3 GHz processor, and a 300 GB hard drive. Every single USB option I try in the boot menu fails—it just won't kick off the installation. I had a raw install of Windows 7 on there previously, so I wiped the C drive and reformatted it entirely, but I'm still hitting the same wall. I keep getting this "invalid partition table" error
What can I do to actually get this thing running? Or am I better off just installing a basic version of Windows XP first and then upgrading my hardware later to handle Windows 10? Thanks for any advice!

thanks for the reply

I’m looking for some advice from anyone who uses an induction cooktop. Honestly, because my mom can be a bit forgetful—and for safety reasons, I really don't want her leaving a gas stove running unattended anymore—I'm thinking about making the switch. Is it actually true that an induction burner won't even turn on if there isn't a compatible pot sitting on it? Also, if she does happen to forget something on the heat, is there a risk of food boiling over or even catching fire like it might on a traditional stove? Thanks!
