How do I get a usb stick with linuxlite 3.4 to boot up on a windows 10 HP?

Hi. I've the exact same problem. As I stated in my intro post. I've mot been here lately & was just about to start a new thread on this same subject. but thought I'd check for any new posts - and found this thread.

I recently bought a backup notebook from fleabay – vendor said from an office clearance. It's got a replacement screen (a tad too small) & the model was stated as HP 15-R125NA (intel N3540 quad) but the model No has been (deliberately?) scratched off the lable. So who knows what it is for sure.

I have exactly the same problem as Dana. Whatever I try it will always start in Win 10. Holding shift down on shutdown has no effect neither does a 'hard reset' , both mentioned above. I have left the BIOS in the following config (having tried every combination i could think of):

  Boot Options
  Post hotkey delay (sec)         <0>
  CD-ROM Boot                 <enabled>
  Internal Network Adapter Boot <Disabled>
  Network Boot Protocol         <IPV4 (legacy)>
  Legacy Support         <enabled>
  Secure Boot         <Disabled>
  Platform Key                 Enrolled
  Pending Action         None
  Clear All Secure Boot Keys
  Load HP Factory Default Keys            [can't get the enables etc. to line up properly]

  UEFI Boot Order
  USB Diskette or Key/USB Hard Disk
>OS Boot Manager
  USB CD/DVD ROM Drive
  Internal  CD/DVD ROM Drive
! Network Adapter

  Legacy Boot Order
  USB Diskette or Key/USB Hard Disk
  USB CD/DVD ROM Drive
>Notebook Hard Drive
  Internal  CD/DVD ROM Drive
! Network Adapter

( The > infront of OS Boot Manager & Notebook Hard Drive, are solid wedges & not the > I have put. it doesn't matter where i put these options in the stack they always have this >)

There is a comments box next to all this that reads:
When legacy  support is enabled, UEFI Boot order & legacy boot order are both avaiable and UEFI boot order has higher priority than legacy boot order.

If I disable legacy support then Secure boot automaticaly becomes enabled & only UEFI Boot Order is highlighted & not both as here.

I have only tried to install  Linux distro's on 2-3 laptops & have never encountered a BIOS that looks like this. I think it's Microsoft deliberately trying to 'dissuade' people from getting rid of Windows x.

On the plus side, all this has been half solved by 'TheDeaD's post above. If I go f9 on bootup & select the boot option for USB from there (with the USB in place from the beginning) it will boot to Linuxlite from the live USB.

I say half solved. I was wanting to install as a dual boot & when the install of LL reaches the install options it says:

'This computer currently has no detected operating system, what would like to do?'

So I don't get the option to install alongside, only erase disc & install.

I would rather dual boot. Any Ideas?
