Unable to boot from USB

[lukedt95]

So recently I've had trouble with DLL files and launching games on my PC. I've decided to do a fresh install of Windows 10 via a bootable USB. However my PC will just not boot from it, I've tried setting the Boot priority in both the BIOS and boot menu, I've even tried disabling all boot devices bar USB, yet for whatever reason it still boots into Windows. It's probably just me overlooking something obvious but any help is appreciated.

My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 (Socket M2).

I have the bootable USB plugged into my front USB 3.0 port, dunno if that makes a difference.

How did you create that USB install?

I used Windows media creation tool. All files seem to be present on the USB

Try a USB 2.0 port. Some systems cannot boot from a USB 3.0 port.

the usb3 ports are not located on the chipset, the boot sequences probably wont recognize them. Your probably stuck with using the USB2 ports for boot/install
