I am trying to boot windows from a usb. The usb has the windows media creation tool installed using the rufus software. The usb is formated as nfts. The bios is the old blue gigabyte bios. Im <Mod Edit> tired of this pls use simple instructions.
 
Seems I found that board. Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 (rev. 1.x). And indeed have Gigabyte/Award old blue text mode BIOS (manual is here). I read about that thing. It is does not support UEFI mode. Have only half baked EFI boot for GPT partition and larger than 2.2 TB drive support. I believe your current disk drives are smaller than 2.2 TB each. Which mean that you can disable EFI for sure. Eq. set "EFI CD/DVD Boot Option" to "Auto". Then USB drive (at USB 2.0 port) should appear in boot drive list.
