What a $%&%$ Motherboard. Tried 5 different Sticks and 1 ssd....nothing. They dont show up as bootable devices.
I use the USB Sticks (with simplemining) in other rigs, so i am sure they work. But not with this B250.
I am sure ME (Mining Expert) stands for Maximum Error...

I have an (very) old Stick with Windows 10.

This seems to work. Installing Win 10 now. Bah.

I feel like a noob. Now it works.
I got into the Bios. Replaced the same G4400.... no idea what caused the problem.

Now it doesnt detect the USB stick...(((( unbelievable.

Making a SSD with Linux now....

I have got this mainboard and dont get any screen.
Changed CPU from G4400 to 6100T - same
Changed RAM - same
With 1 GPU in 16x Slot - same
With 1 Riser - same
Without any GPU and HDMI connected to the board - same

With G4400 the Keyboard light is on but no screen.

Power supply for sure is connected and Molex Power too.

Any hints?

did it beep when loading?  if yes - something with vga
if there is no beep - try to reset your bios
otherwise might be bad mainboard, or bad cpu installation

Have you try it with on board GPU? Using HDMI monitor or using converter like this
