How much RAM do you have?
Which Integrated GPU / Dedicated GPU?
Which CPU do you have?
If you're working with a very small amount of RAM <500MB and you have a GPU that is supported by Linux, I would recommend Puppy Linux as it runs on hardware with very small amounts of RAM and still looks decent and is easy to install:

in addition to what @y2zs said...you can look at slax linux. Great option for keeping on a thumb drive. It's now based on debian, and minimum specs are an i686 and 128MB of RAM. https://slax.org/introduction.php
