Windows 7 x86 USB installer not detected by Lenovo Ideapad 100S
Hey, I'm having a lot of trouble with installing Windows 7 on a Lenovo Ideapad 100S. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate x86 on a USB using the USB DVD Tool, but it isn't detected on the system's boot menu no matter what I do. GPartEd works fine, which is confusing me even more. I haven't tested anything else yet but I'm downloading Linux Mint to be sure. I have absolutely no idea what the problem could be, and searching for a solution has turned up nothing. Any help is greatly needed, and feel free to ask for more information.
EDIT: I'll also mention that I already turned Secure Boot off.
EDIT2: Linux Mint x86 isn't detected either...
EDIT3: Alright, tried installing an x64 Win7 (apparently the Intel Atom Z3735F CPU is 64-bit) using Rufus. I tried all of the partition scheme options and none of them worked. This is insane...
