I got it installed with all the files saved in windows.old. It was definitely the fact that I didn’t know what the boot menu was/how to get there. Thank you so much for your help, my pc is finally back to normal. I just have to install all my programs again. Thank you again.

It still has always been in legacy mode, the whole csm/UEFI thing was a separate option that I changed so I could get access/see the secure boot option. I also don't see an option to pick the non-UEFI installer version. Sorry, I've never had to mess around this much in the bios, so this is a...

So I had to turn the windows 10 whql support from csm to UEFI then the secure boot option showed up and it was disabled. Should I try it install again with UEFI or switch it back to csm? Also thank you so much for helping me out

I finally decided to upgrade my pc. I upgraded my mobo to msi h370 gaming pro and cpu to i7-9700k. Once i was able to update the mobo bios with a different cpu i put the new one in and tried run it. The keyboard and mouse work in bios but not when i get to the start screen. I looked up a lot of...
