    Can't boot off of usb

    my hardrive died yesterday, I bought a new hardrive and nvme today so i can use the nvme for boot and hardrive for storage. I used media creation tool to make a bootable usb, but i can’t get it to work. For a while it wasn’t doing anything at all, It would just stuck on my motherboard screen and do nothing. When I did finally see the windows setup I would see it for a second and get SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED, and it would just do that over and over. I have already tried reformatting my usb and making a new boot but nothing. Please help.

      Try another USB port.
      Can you try a another USB drive?
      Did you download the media creation tool & choose to create media? Were you using another Windows PC to do this or a third party program like Rufus?

        I’ve tried another port, yes the media creation tool, I used a surface pro laptop after updating. The only thing I haven’t done is trying a new USB and making a tool from a different computer. I will be doing both of those today if my friend wakes up anytime soon.

          Did you choose to create media for another PC or the PC in use?

              Then it may be the USB.

                I’m hoping so, also I’m curious when using the media creation tool is a new version of Windows installed ? Or does it simply create a file replica of what was on the other pc

                  From what I understand if you choose to create media for another PC then you will need to choose things like Home or Pro & language whereas if you choose just to create media it will pick whatever version the PC is running.
                  It will create the latest Windows 10 version - 21H1 currently.

                    Thread closed due to lack of feedback from the OP.
