PC build
I have just built my new PC (first time). I am having trouble booting it and getting passed the BIOS screen. I have just recently downloaded Windows 10 onto a USB, but it appears that my new build will not boot it. The "BOOT" LED light on my motherboard is lit up and I cannot find the solution. Everything appears to be in place and where it is supposed to be, I was thinking maybe my USB is not a bootable USB?

Hey @kornchip
When you say that you downloaded Windows 10 to a USB, did you use Microsoft's Windows Media Creation tool to do so? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
Here's a tutorial on this! https://community.microcenter.com/kb/articles/77-how-to-create-a-windows-10-installation-flash-drive-from-a-windows-10-pc
If you're still having difficulty beyond this, let us know! It could be that you haven't chosen the correct boot priority in your BIOS.
