HP 247 G8 Notebook PC (47Y96AV) has a Free Ms Dos operating system and I'm trying to install Windows 10 64 bit, I have made a bootable USB drive (gpt drive) but the problem is it is not showing up in the boot menu.
In ntoebook BIOS everything is on default, secure boot is off, UEFI is enabled,legacy support is disabled but still USB drive is not showing up in boot menu and hence I am not able to install windows.
Note : usb drive is not defected, Ihave tried it on other computers and it is showing up in other computer's bootmenu.

Hi:
The only suggestion I can offer would be to get another USB flash drive, download the W10 64 bit ISO file with the media creation tool from the link below instead of the tool automatically making the USB flash drive.
Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)
Then use the free Rufus utility to transfer the ISO file to the USB flash drive so that it is bootable.
Rufus - Create bootable USB drives the easy way
Set up the Rufus menu exactly the way you see it in the illustration on their website for Windows installations.
If that doesn't work either, I recommend that you contact HP customer service for further assistance since we do not work for or represent HP.
