If your usb have problems and your installed system have problems, then maybe it's hardware issue - ram problem for example.

 

But if you only can't boot your usb, then check bios for boot order.

 

Do you made Windows installation before? If not - read posts on this forum (you can find lot of them).

So the usb kinda tries to boot, it shows 1 sec the windows 10 logo and then just stops with black screen that seems endless. And ive never had succesfull windows iso boot from usb. I dont think my pc has hardware problems and my boot order was already modified to launch only the usb at startup.

Try to install Windows on another computer, then plug drive with installed system to your computer.

 

It's really not so easy to understand your problem and my hint about checking hardware was ignored, so try this method so we'll see what is wrong.

So, i deleted the drive with windows 7 that was unrepairable, and it may have deleted all the drivers required for it to run, only issue is idk how to find any of them. The usb works, but because of the missing drivers i cant move on.

As ive found out, my hard disk drive name apperantly is Samsung SpinPoint P Series HD160JJ 160BG 7.2K SATA Hard Drives with the link of it here https://www.disctech.com/Samsung-SpinPoint-P-Series-HD160JJ-160BG-7-2K-SATA-Hard-Drives . But if its needed, then i cant find the drivers for it anywhere. if there is something that could be done, then post about it here cause without any help, i cant get windows 10 installation to continue.

It's really hard to helping you. No screenshots, no anything. Do you prepared that usb in legacy mode? You cannot install Windows in uefi mode if your drive was initialize as mbr before. You need compatible usb installation with drive format. You may use bootable partition manager to change drive format or prepare usb with legacy installation.

 

Or you may try method I wrote before and you ignored it.

formatting errors

What formatting errors? When?

Man, do you really need help? Then describe problem better - it's not that I see the same as you and know what do you think. Formatting hard drive error? Formatting pendrive error? While preparing usb? While installing Windows?
