RAM is the main one. Just check your boot device sequence that it checks for USB first, then restart with the Win10 usb in and it should boot from that. Once Windows is installed you can go back to BIOS and change the setting to start with HDD.
And once Windows is installed, you don’t have to install chipset drivers because Windows will download and install them automatically. Windows will also download and install the drivers for your GPU, but it usually isn’t the latest driver so it’s best to download that yourself. GeForce Experience is handy for newbies in that regard.

HP 280 G1.. next gen compared to the Lenovo, although slower CPU.. however, the HP will have room for a decent GPU and the CPU can be upgraded, though probably wouldn't be needed really..

You would need to add more RAM and a SSD to start with..

Get the one with the i5-3550 and add 4GB of RAM and an SSD and you'll be sorted, Won't game without a GPU though, the onboard GPU is kak slow.
