Evening all, I just built my first desktop PC. Gigabyte B550 Gaming x V2 (F2 BIOS), Ryzen 5 5600x 16gb Corsair vengence LPX RAM and a cheap and cheerful GPU for the time being to tide me over.

Ther issue I'm having is that I can't seem to get Windows 10 Installed. I have a bootable USB, but whenever I try to boot from it I get stuck at the Windows logo and nothing happens, I've left it for half an hour or more but still nothing.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance
 
No I haven't used rufus, I used the Microsoft tool. Do you suggest rufus over that? I have checked all settings in the BIOS, though I'm not really sure what I'm looking at I have made sure things are enabled in line with what I have read on google searches.

This morning I went down the route of trying rufus. On my thumb drive there is a UEFI partition 1 and then just the normal scandisk cruzer pop. When I try to boot off the UEFI partition it just sits at 'GIGABYTE Insist on Ultra Durable' screen. And if i try to boot off the scandisk cruzer pop I get a rufus error screen. I've attached some pictures of my BIOS setting and then the rufus error
 
I used rufus, the partition scheme is GPT. I am still just getting stuck on the 'GIGABYTE Insist on Ultra Durable' screen with no signs of windows installing. Apologies if I am missing something obvious. Attached imgur pic of Boot menu in Bios. E5ud2fZ.jpg
