windows 10 ran just fine. 

Just because Windows works doesn't mean anything.
Linux is more sensitive to hardware problems, for example it may refuse to work on a technically efficient but overclocked computer.
Let me tell you a story.
A long time ago I worked in a computer repair shop. One client regularly brought his computer. Windows kept crashing and the disk was full of garbage. After wiping the disk and reinstalling the system, everything worked fine. I've done hundreds of tests and found nothing. The computer was returned to the client and after some time it was in the same condition as before. Until one day I noticed that the processor temperature was a little higher than it should be. Just a few degrees higher, but I decided to replace the processor. From that moment on, I never saw that computer again. The explanation is simple, a hot processor sometimes performed incorrect operations and wrote incorrect results to the disk. The errors kept increasing and after some time an avalanche started...
Why am I talking about this?
Because not everything can be checked and not everything can be repaired.
If your installation media is not damaged, there is no point in investigating the cause of your computer not working.
CNC is not a toy, it is a machine that can cause damages and injure the operator.
Everything must be checked like on airplanes, and if something is suspicious, it must be removed.

Download a different installation image, use a different pendrive. If the problem persists, leave this computer alone.

systemctl get-default

it reply's with graphical.target

Ok, graphical.target is correct. This tells me it is configured to start to graphical, but apparently something is breaking it.

Lets try:
(run this before startx, then let me know what it answered:)
sudo lspci -nnk | grep -A 3 -i vga

maybe also run it again in a terminal after you ran startx and see if anything changed.

the reply is :

00:02:0 VGA compatible controller (0300): Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (8086:0a16) (rev 09)
Subsystem: Dell Device (1028:05ec)
Kernel driver in use 1915
Kernel modules: 1915

I think got it all typed right.

Again THANK YOU for all the help.

The 2nd reply from the program in terminal is the same.
