Few question,
1. What is version of your Bitcoin Core?
2. Did you configure Bitcoin Core to use proxy/tor?
3. Can you share output of debug.log so we could find out the problem? You can post it here or at https://pastebin.com and share the link to us.

1) I am using version 0.21.1
2) no
3) where would the log be? what folder would the program write the log to?

My advice would be to start over, but not before upgrading your hardware. To compare performance: on my old Linux laptop with slow CPU but 16 GB RAM and Bitcoin Core's chainstate directory on SSD (with the blocks directory on HDD), I can sync the full blockchain from scratch in just over 24 hours. If you insist on running Bitcoin Core, and if your computer can handle it, I suggest to add at least 8 GB of RAM, and a solid state drive.
With your current hardware you're probably better off running a less demanding wallet (such as Electrum). Unless you have a specific reason to use Bitcoin Core.

I have been using Bitcoin Core because unfortunately I have some Bitcoin in my Armory wallet and would love to get Armory up and running so I can get my bitcoin out of there and not have to use Armory anymore. Being a new person, I did not realize that you needed to go through all of this in order for your Bitcoin balance to be displayed prior to sending coins to my armory wallet
