See if this works...
I found out that Intel removed USB 2.0 chipset support from the Skylake chipset.
This means that normal USB installs for windows will not work.
The Microsoft Windows ISO DVD doesn't have the native USB 3.0 drivers either.
So you have to add the USB 3.0 drivers into the Windows ISO file.
Intel came through on this one. They have a utility that does all the work for you.

Run this and point to your USB Installation media and hopefully, W7 will install.
