Hello and welcome to the forum, I would post the specs for your machine to help trouble shoot your issues and give the information needed

Secondly, I wouldn't get rid of Windows just yet, make sure you understand how Linux works use it for awhile and see if it's something you like

You might have to access the BIOS first and set the USB to boot

Some information about your machine would help identifying the issue.

If yours is a fairly recent machine, you may want to turn off the Secure Boot setting in your BIOS.
