@Maki3 

UEFI mode in and of itself does not prevent booting from  USB as I am able to do that on an  HP desktop.

 

The problem is one or both of two BIOS/UEFI settings:

1) Secure boot

2) Disable booting from portable devices

 

Both of these will prevent the USB stick from showing up in the Boot Devices menu, and that will prevent you from booting from it.
