(after reading the other comments)

I recently had a similar issue with a HP 840G3 laptop

after editing the BIOS to disable secure boot and setting the boot order 
no joy.

I discovered that holding down F9 and then pressing the power button it 
goes directly into BIOS boot menu.
THEN selecting the USB drive from the list it works.


maybe your laptop has some such direct boot path option
best of luck
