After a few attempts, my Acer SW3-016 still refuses to find a bootable device, why is this the case?

>>>I used your suggestions, and made a bootable USB out of it, installation went fine but didn't end too well as the no bootable device error still cropped up >>>The USB stick cannot be in MBR mode in the Rufus screenshot!!!!!! It won't install properly. Please show screenshot of Rufus before you try to install again.

I used GPT for the installation, I forgot to post the updated screenshot here0

Also I used my own ISO as the one you suggested only supported MBR0

I don't see any Rufus screenshot.

I used this and it didn't detect the drive still.0

That's because it's a 64-bit iso. You need a 32-bit iso. Please try again with a 32-bit iso and post the Rufus screenshot before proceeding.

Here... By the way there will be some inactivity as I am going away for a few days, I will update you later (btw I tried with this and the laptop didnt detect the USB)0 -
You must tap F12 on startup to see the bootable USB stick.
