windoes 10 Computer not booting from ISO usb

[Louis1995]

Hi all I have a problem I'm trying to install windows 10 32 & 64 bit on a friend's desktop pc and I made a iso usb. When I plug the usb into the pc I boot it up and enter the bios and set it to start from the usb then I get a black screen with that ( _ ) line blinking and that is where it stop. The pc hardware is. My CPU: Intel core 2 duo E5700 3GHz Motherboard: MSI G41TM-P31 RAM: 2GB DDR2 800MHz. So please help me out

Did you make the USB bootable or just copy the ISO file directly to the USB?

Yeah this. If you didn't, use a program to make bootable USBs (I use Rufus, https://rufus.akeo.ie/) and then it should work.

 

Unless you did do that, in which case idk why it isn't working.

I did use Rufus and nothing.

Did you format the drive as FAT-32?

By drive you mean the usb?

Why not just use the Windows Install Creation Tool and create a bootable USB from that instead of using an ISO?

Yes.

Rufus does that by itself.

Well I used it to download the iso file to burn it later on by using Rufus

Have you set legacy boot on from mobo? If that is option. Also with just 2gb of RAM you should either install 32bit version or add another 2gb.

I formated the usb as Fat32 and then used PowerIso to burn the new Iso to the drive and installed in the pc when it was done flashing and booted it up and it worked installing windows now. Thanks allot guys for all the help love the LTT community always so helpful.
