Windows 10 Install USB Fails to Boot

I created a Windows 10 install USB using media creation tool and rufus and both times they failed to load the installer, instead only showing the Windows logo for a bit and then rebooting into the bootloader. This seems to be the only way for me to install Windows 10 at the moment as both windows update and the media creation tool upgrade now feature appear to be broken for my pc. If someone could please help me to install Windows 10 it would be greatly appreciated.

BIOS settings?

Could you please elaborate on what you mean by this? I don't usually touch the UEFI... so a list of settings you want to know would be useful.

Boot priority. He's probably asking about boot priority

there is usually a section named "boot"

go in there and set your flash drive as first priority

Specs please!

Are you overclocked?

If so put back to normal settings.

well you could try changing that into flash drive

and if that doesnt work just use the upgrade function in the media creation tool
