Try another expansion slot? There have been reports on some USB sticks not booting from every slot. [[RESPONDED] Issue with booting USB from port 6](http://community.frame.work/t/responded-issue-with-booting-usb-from-port-6/51061)  
Try both BIOS pages (press F2 or F12 repeatedly during boot). Disable secure boot?
