Thinkstation S20 USB Boot Problem

Go to solution Solved by GodOfKnockers,

Update: never mind guys. I Updated the BIOS and learned that this model does NOT have UFEI. I also learned that you have to insert the flash drive a few moments into starting up the PC. It will NOT work if you insert it before turning the PC on.

I have a Lonovo Thinkstation S20 PC and I'm having trouble getting Bootable USB drives to startup. 

I have made the USBs Bootable in the correct way, but my PC won't recognize either one of them. They work on my other PC's and Windows 10 loads them without any problems

but if I restart and try to start them after powering on the PC, I have nothing. I'm trying to access the UFEI (Lenovo says it DOES have a UFEI menu) but I see no way to do that, and the boot order I changed so that it tries to access the USB boot drive first doesn't do anything either. Can anyone help me with this?
