Cannot boot into USB for Windows installation

fUSERGOD

so i attached my new M.2 sata SSD into the mobo and created a windows 10 USB using the Windows Media creation tool 

i selected MBR and let it do its thing

 

when i go into bios and change the boot to USB i get a blinking cursor and then it restarts to the HDD hence cannot complete windows installation

 

i have a Ryzen 5 1400 with Gigabyte A320M HD2

Make sure you are booting from UEFI and not CSM (Legacy)

You'll need to recreate the USB drive again but select UEFI (or UEFI&MBR if its an option) then try again.

On the second screenshot, see where it says CSM Support? Turn that off and try again.

if i disable CSM support then i cannot control UEFI/Legacy

i tried no results its the same blinking cursor at start and then restart 

i also tried multiple ISO files and having the same issue i dont think its a pendrive issue but i will also check with another pendrive

This is desirable. With CSM disabled the system will only boot in UEFI mode and your system is 100% UEFI compatible so there's no need to boot in Legacy mode.

Not really an issue but if you wish to fix it change Secure Boot Customisation away from Custom.

I spent the whole day still no luck Tried different USB DRIVES same shit

 Well now i converted my disk which was MBR to GPT and disabled CSM and selected GPT and NTFS while creating the boot drive on Rufus

 

Once i boot into the UEFI : Transcend 8Gb i get the Easeus Partition Master not the Windows installer and when i close it PC restarts
