Hi,
I'm having trouble installing Windows 10 from a USB stick because it doesn't appear in BIOS. The system recognized the bootable USB from Microsoft, but I can't see the device in BIOS settings. My drive is a Z270X gaming 7, a USB 3 stick, and I've tried other USB drives without success. I've checked various BIOS settings but haven't found a solution. I have version F8 firmware. Any suggestions?

Do you connect the USBs prior to starting, and have you experimented with different ports?

Adjust the BIOS configuration by modifying the Boot Mode to "CSM" or "Legacy" rather than "UEFI"

I tested every USB port until I located one that functioned, which is great since I have Windows 10 installed and everything is fine.
