BIOS USB BOOTING

[Vulcan4499]

Soooo I just made my first computer.  Yay! 

Side note; I used a hdd from an old computer with Windows Vista on it

So anyway I made the computer and attempted to boot off of a flash drive for Windows 10, but even after I changed the boot order on the Bios it continues to boot off of the old hdd that is wiped and acts as if I still have Windows Vista on it.

Says registry file is missing, or corrupt

Just want to boot windows 10 off the usb

 

Parts List:

Motherboard:

GIGABYTE H110M-A

Memory:

Crucial Ballistix Sport 8gb 2400 something or other

CPU:

i3-6100

HDD:

WD Caviar Blue 1tb

and

seagate barracuda 1.5tb

Both from Windows Vista pc's

Make sure legacy USB is enabled in the bios, and possibly the option to boot from USB. last option, unplug all SATA data cables to the harddrives, plug in the USB, and if it works, try plugging the harddrives back in.

Go to BIOS and go to the boot menu. Disable all HDDs on boot priority and enable your USB drive. Save and restart.

I did both of those and it still doesn't work @KeemoSabe @RektSkrubs

If I unplug all the hard drives then restart the computer it brings me straight to the bios

If I try to exit the bios, it just opens back up again or will say "put in a boot drive then hit a key" something like that

I exited out of the bios a 3rd time and my screen went black

Have you tried your bootable USB on another computer? It is possible that you are not able to burn the OS properly to your USB drive.
