@Jer- 

First of all, let's get our terms right -- it's not "memory", it's "disk space".

Second, your PC only has 32GB of total space and it takes a lot of work to do updates with that little space:  https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebooks-Knowledge-Base/Updating-Windows-10-OS-on-an-HP-Stream-with-3...

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

Yes you are right about memory/disk space and the article in the link does offer some hope.

However, the immediate problem is that I cannot access the operating system as it will not boot.

I do have access to the BIOS.

I have tried to load a linux OS via a USB as described, and I cannot get this to work either.

Therefore I am trying to recover something from this machine rather than throw it in the bin, never to buy HP again!
