Even if you do manage to start a build, performance won't be great. Yocto, by design, builds the entire stack from source, so a lot of CPU cores is essential. Don't spend your time waiting, get an appropriately specced Linux workstation, or an account on a Linux server that your organization might have for the purpose.
