System Requirements for Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit Build 16237.1001?

I have a desktop with an Asus P5K-E and a Core 2 quad cpu that I am using to run 64bit Home build 16241 on so I am pretty familiar with your specs.  This is a classic example of why it is so helpful to post the kind of hardware info we were asking for.  By coincidence you got a reply from a user pretty familiar with your configuration.  Me.

Your issue is not about system specs.  It obviously has been running 64bit previews on the partition you are trying to upgrade.  Your question is about the specific build you are trying to install.  Make sure you disconnect all usb peripherals that are not needed to operate the computer.  Also remove any SD cards you might have left in the slot.  In other words run with as bare bones a system as you can.  Apparently 16241 breaks something that was working for you before.  Be sure to report this issue in the Feedback Hub and include a link for this thread in your commentary.

Does the same error happen if you clean install build 16232 using an iso created from the Insider ISO site?  16232 was just posted on the site a few days ago.  If that installs OK then you can set to Fast Ring and try to update to 16241 via WU again.

Hi @ https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/profile/87869dbd-08f4-45ba-9704-bf5a5a97bab5Cbarnhorst ,

Thank you!

And this was just posted today: http://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-blocks-windows-10-creators-update-on-some-pcs/?loc=newsletter_large_thumb_featured&ftag=TRE-03-10aaa6b&bhid=21446130472895413483597773614522

And thank you again for removing non-needed USB Devices like Printers for Example.

The link fails with error 503.  Try using TinyURL to greatly shorten the link and reposting.

The article is about Atom Clover Trail cpus, not Core 2 cpus so, while interesting, it does not apply to your issue.  

This hardware aging issue is nothing new, of course.  The panic described in the article is about a family of cpus that are not actually very old.  My thought is that the wave of cheap, small Windows 8 tablets of just a few years ago were never going to be long-lived except in their original W8 configurations.  I have a couple that I have tried to maintain as Windows 10 Home devices and there always seems to be something going wrong.  The one with 1GB of ram could not upgrade to Creators Update via WU with stock W10 so the trick turned out to be to set it up in Slow Ring.  Then it upgraded, although it does it in stages and takes all afternoon to do it.  It continues to upgrade and is now running 16232.  But it upgrades slooooowly.

I got an error trying to install the Insider Preview via the Mount function and when it failed it gave a better idea.

Pursue the error code, of course.  A very similar code at

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3208485/0xc1900101-error-when-windows-10-upgrade-fails-after-the-second-system

suggests the line of thought to follow, although the code in the link involves installed software which doesn't apply to a clean installation, of course.  Anyway, Bing the exact code and see if you can find it.
