Why is it not accepting any form of windows installer?

What I've tried:

1. Tried replacing the dead CMOS battery.

2. Checked/tweaked bios settings (Boot sequence, security settings, etc)

This computer was from a school, But everything was wiped before I got it (including bios settings).

I can't figure it out.

ALTHOUGH, I was able to get ubuntu 19.4 installed and working perfectly well

(For reference: I was using terminal to make the installers. )

Hi @beanman56,

Did you check that you have BIOS → Boot List Option → Legacy setting, enabled?

Did you try updating the BIOS firmware?

@jayeff - Legacy is on, I will try seeing if ubuntu would let me open the exe containing the bios update.

If you're using ubuntu terminal to image your bootable media I would try suggesting using RUFUS instead, unfortunately it is a windows only tool (you might be able to get it up and running using something like Wine on linux), but it is the only tool with which I've had success creating bootable media for windows. Check it out here

Make sure you use MBR as the partition scheme and BIOS or UEFI as the target system.
