The installation is failing because the ISO file is for a Home Premium 64-bit version and you're attempting to use it on a larger 256 GB drive. You need to find a compatible version or adjust the settings accordingly.

Needs internal connection and setup. Still causes issues when restarting on various systems.

it’s clear that you can’t put Windows on a device without an IDE or SATA connection.

It looks like you're asking about a system setup. You might want a lightweight Linux distribution for basic mobile use.

It's quicker than its present hard drive, that's all I can say.
