I am trying to Install the Power BI Gateway on a 2 GB Windows 10 Laptop. But the Installation Fails. Here is the error from the error log

Hi Conarl_On_BI,
I tried Installing the recommended mode. Please see the screenshot by going to this URL. The OS is 64 bits. I have enough memory on the hard drive (At least 250 GB) to support the Installation but only have a 2 GB RAM.
From your screen shot the installation is prompting you to select which gateway you want to install. i.e enterprise or personal gateway. If you're not familiar with the installation of the gateway please follow the screen shot in below link https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-getting-started, also do some reading on types of gateways that meets your requirements.
Thank you,
