You will be surprised at what W10 will actually run on. It (along with SSD) has turned some of my old kit into perfectly usable machines. I would forget about dual boot. Keep your Windows desktop for your online banking etc but upgrade it to W10. Get a Raspberry Pi as Ronnie has and stick piCorePlayer and LMS on it. Where are your music files held ?
