Very definitely.  You must boot in EFI mode.  If you don't see a grub 
screen, then it can't boot EFI from a USB stick.  I do mine from an 
external DVD ....  Can't you do that?  Windows will be messed up (I 
think) by grub ....  It messes the EFI partition up by installing grub 
into the boot sector.  Not quite sure what it will do then.  Make sure 
you can re-install Windows - you may have to.
