booting up

OK if you are in live mode:

1. in the search bar of the menu, enter 'GParted' - it should show up almost instantly. - Launch it.
2. Go to Menu | Accessories | Screenshot and take a picture of the GParted window, save it as a .jpg and post it here - to do that see my tutorial video here (which needs updating I know):

OK, I see you have emmc notebook - please be aware that these machines can have an extremely short lifespan (have just read where one person's died after only 9 months!). The best solution I can offer you is this:

When you have saved up some money, get a notebook with a hard drive, even a decent second hand one.

Hi, I am now getting stuck as I don't know much about emmc but from the City Forum where I live, someone bought one in error and did not know why they could not install a game for their child. They are extremely limited kit and all I can think of is that the BIOS or the emmc chip is harwired to only accept Windows 10. I'm afraid I can't think of anything else apart from a different post which said something about disabling CSM in the BIOS and turning off UEFI?

If you can boot to BIOS there should be either EFI or Legacy boot mode available, but I suspect because it is emmc motherboard it will be locked - I could be wrong - also check to see if there is mixed mode (Efi/Legacy)
