You need assistance with your operating system immediately.
I don't have access to your system details, so I can't tell you which Windows you're installing. Could you clarify or provide more information?
The operating system you're attempting to install is Windows 10. You can obtain an ISO file from Microsoft and it should be possible to have it saved to a USB drive using the provided tool.
Do you have an ISO file available on another machine? Follow the same steps you took previously: insert the USB with Win 7, disconnect all external hard drives, and attempt to boot from the USB. If it works, your BIOS was still trying to load from the hard drive.
Your BIOS is configured for legacy boot mode or a similar setting.
Did you preserve your BIOS configurations after configuring the flash drive as the initial boot option? You can also press the F8 key during startup, which displays a menu allowing you to manually choose a different drive for booting. Once you pick a drive from that list, the system will automatically boot from it. If the data on the flash drive is damaged, you’ll need to erase it and reinstall the Windows 7 ISO, then restart the installation. First attempt the F8 method. If the installer fails after selecting the flash drive in the menu, it indicates corruption, requiring a fresh format using the Windows 7 ISO.
Managed to get it running after using the USB, tried playing it again. It’s now reinstalling. Fingers crossed everything works smoothly. Appreciate your support and patience.
It's usually confusing to make the BIOS identify flash drives based on personal experience
