Solution
The only time I have seen this is when attempting to boot a Windows 8 or 8.1 install flash drive from a USB 3.0 port (regardless of what the USB drive supports). Some USB 3.0 controllers just don't like booting those disks for some reason. Try a different USB port in addition to the alternate USB drive you mentioned above.
