You need to be more clear as to what exactly you are asking.

Are you trying to upgrade your chromebook to windows to watch HULU?  

That won't work.  Chromebooks usually can't run regular windows.

my bad i mean there is a lot of reason why i wanna upgrade to something else windows is not a option cause of the storage that comes with this  and i don't think it would run good lol i would wann ause like linux or cloud ready or some other software they have out there

Can you update chrome os?  The easiest way to fix this is to use what you have.

CHrome OS was made to run (mostly)  on ARM hardware and windows was made to run on X86.

There is a windows for ARM, but I haven't heard good things about it.

Is the issue that you are out of storage..?

running windows on this chrome book wouldn't work at all due to space i think its either 10 or 16 gbs of space lol and i think the ram amount would also be to low for it to run okay but some how a long time ago i was able to update passed the out of date point where it was telling me no longer supported and some how i got to this last up date but thats far as i can go and things are going out of date like some websites wont work with this and now its hulu 

but i forget the update i had when i first got this laptop i got it half a year ago from a friend i fixed it up got a charger and replaced the dead battery but some how i got to this last update that i could get same update for a while now lol
