Ok, so I used Rufus to make a Linux mint install USB stick and it actually worked on the laptop... Then I tried again to make a Windows 10 USB stick. It still wouldn't work on the laptop or on my other pc either. so there must be something weird with the windows 10 ISO on the Microsoft site. The recovery stick from HP gets the farthest, but still fails at the end.

So I dug up a windows 7 disk I had from a pc I built a while ago and I was able to successfully install that (windows 7 ultimate 64 bit)... what's going on here?? Obviously the hardware is all operational. And yet, the HP windows 10 recovery media continues to fail and the Microsoft Windows 10 media creation tool doesn't work at all. Any suggestions? All I want is a working windows 10 install!
