So all of these boot attempts were from USB? How did you write the iso to USB? You have to use a special tool to make bootable USB.

Also would be good to test your USB booting on another PC first.

I saved the ISO into the USB.

Using the instructions here (https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-USB-Bootable) for Windows (method 1), I made the USBs with both ISOs bootable. When I tried booting from either, I got the message: 'An operating system wasn't found. Try disconnecting any devices that don't contain an operating system.' Even though only the USB was connected, and it did have the ISO of an operating system. Please help. (I'll be on vacation for a week, so don't expect any replies in the next week.)

I would try a different guide... And test your USB on a known good PC. I think you have hardware issues like bad RAM.
