You DON't just copy an ISO to deal with it! It must be,processed by K3b or "start disk creator" to put it on a USB.

F-2 or Del gets me in.
this laptop is a bit old so may not do everything I need, I downloaded an
ISO to the harddrive and tried to do a direct copy to the USB. didn't
have the large USB when I did the download so may try again doing the
download directly to the USB, problem is the download speed so takes about
4hrs to download
thanks
