Windows cannot be installed via UEFI while the Ubuntu bootable remains functional.
installation failed with reviOS A320M. Disk settings were disabled, CSM turned off, secure boot and fast boot enabled. Used Rufus with NTFS and GPT partition scheme (my disks are GPT). In BIOS I clicked the USB but it booted back to the previous boot manager. Tried FAT32 with Rufus but no improvement; last screenshot shows this issue and it restarts into GRUB. Attached BIOS images for reference. Also attempted optimized defaults but no success.
This action might trigger a setup process on your USB drive, but it shouldn't cause major issues unless you're unsure about the software being installed.
Determine the setup you're using to launch the USB installation.
explored all options but couldn't access the USB with Windows ISO. Only found a potential fix by updating the BIOS (haven’t done since buying the motherboard in 2018). Also tried various USB drives and cleared out extra HDDs, yet nothing worked.
Consider using the Windows Media Creation Tool instead of Rufus. Instead of downloading the Windows ISO, insert it onto a USB drive from that tool.
