it doesnt have legacy boot and when i try and boot it from usb it gives me a boot.efi error 

Usually on Acer laptops, you have to set up a BIOS password and disable secure boot. After that, the CSM / Legacy boot option should show up.

But you might have a hard time finding drivers for a Geminy Lake cpu.

There are also tools to boot windows 7 in pure UEFI mode. Check uefiseven

it has a intel celeron n4000 cpu 4gb ram 64gb emmc storage and intel uhd 600 graphics

is there at least wifi/sound drivers available

Sound is Realtek, by the looks of things, which generally have insanely good 'old OS' support...

That's basically ruled your PC out then, as far as I've searched there's no GPU drivers for your laptop that work properly. Searched around a bit for you and there's nothing I could find that was relevant. Sorry.

 

It's a shame because it'd have performed fine under 7, better than it would under 10 for sure.

 

Nice username by the way

UHD 600 drivers exist, EMMC drivers don't.

Sorry. eMMC storage is not supported at all. If you need windows 7, you will need to run it virtualized.

ok i installed it onto a usb hard drive where can i find the intel uhd drivers
