@leonaip Thanks for the concern. I'm actually trying to boot linux in my machine but due to boot mood uefi for some reason I'm unable to do so. Thats why I want to change it from usfi to legecy. Main reason is it's not showing my usb.
you're welcome mate @Aashudip
try the Nobara Linux distro - click here
maybe your usb is not bootable or not properly configured to boot in uefi
download here

@leonaip I used this one it's not booting
go to your BIOS and set the device priority to your USB stick or choose USB HDD...
enable the F12 boot menu in the BIOS so you can press F12 key once the computer restarts and choose your USB stick.
remember always to save settings in the BIOS and exit

@leonaip Here is the real problem it's only showing windows boting option in priority only
maybe your USB stick is not recognized or not properly inserted, try other usb ports.
post a picture here of your BIOS with your USB stick inserted.
