Windows 10: I can’t get windows 10 installer to boot on startup.

This is a new build that I set up yesterday:

All the components start up and register well in the bios (from what I can tell that is). The I hopped on my MacBook and download the windows 10 iso from the software download page, I already have a product key from my school so I wouldn’t need to purchase it. I tried using the Mac utility assistant to manually erase and format a usb as an exfat, manually extracted the iso and moved it to the new usb. I also tried using the boot camp assistant which does all of that for you. Both of these ways left, to my knowledge the usb still unbootable. I just get a blank screen with a little white blinking bar on the top left of the screen, which according to msi (the motherboard maker) technical support means that the usb is unbootable. I have done this with 3 USB’s. And only one of them had a different message which read “error loading operating system.” So I’m not sure where to turn to next. Any ideas?

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks
