@Reben1 

if this is a recent laptop, then my guess is it came with Win10 preloaded using UEFI mode -- and the Windows install media you created is probably NOT UEFI mode -- which will then, NOT boot in this PC.

 

You need to download the ISO file from MS again and this time, use the free RUFUS utility to create UEFI boot media -- and see if that works better.  You can get RUFUS from here:  Rufus - The Official Website (Download, New Releases)
