OK, a quick search and I do think this is keeping you from booting from a LIVE USB (I"ll explain why I'm so sure):

Caveat - it's always possible there is a secondary issue, but if this isn't set right, you don't have a chance.

Why am I so sure this is keeping you from booting from a LIVE USB? See here:Got it to work, and it was so simple, as always.
Switch the Boot Mode in BIOS from UEFI to CSM. Booted right up. I'll remember that before I waste half a day trying to fix something.
Could you please tell me how to switch from UEFI to CSM? My UEFI is not active (gray color instead blue)...
Turn off security check at boot , then go back to uefi screen you can then change it to csm
If I've followed you, when it fails to boot from USB, it does boot back to Windows. According to this, that shouldn't happen if the BIOS is set to allow USB booting.It works, thanks so much. Are there any negatives for doing this?
-------------------------------------
BTW, the 'negatives' are that you can't boot into Windows if you don't switch back the BIOS settings. This is normal.
