For future reference a note should be added to the help manual as follows: When a USB or DVD won't boot from the device boot menu on a Windows 8.1 or 10 machine even though CSM legacy is enabled and secure boot is disabled it is because Windows is not completely shut down. To shut down Windows completely hold the shift key continously down when clicking shut down on the Windows machine until the machine goes off. This occurs because the option to enable fast boot is in the UI layer of Windows software and not the BIOS. Fast boot must be disabled by a Windows administrator account from the UI in such cases as there is no other option to do so. If fast boot is not disabled Windows genertally hibernates on shutdown instead of shutting completely down, and will not allow boot from media channels. Also on some Windows 10 UEFI machines enabling leagcy will cause Windows not to boot at all without a Windows net disk to install the Windows OS legacy boot loader which is a relic from XP days.
