Note
If you have fast boot or ultra fast boot enabled in your UEFI firmware settings, then you will need to temporarily disable fast boot or ultra fast boot to be able to boot from a USB.
How to Enable Fast Boot or Ultra Fast Boot in UEFI Firmware Settings for Windows: Enable or Disable Fast Boot in UEFI Firmware Settings for Windows Performance Maintenance Tutorials
1. Try another USB stick
2. Try all USB ports (2.0 and 3.0)
3. Maybe when using UEFI Bios you have to temporarily switch to Legacy in BIOS settings
4. Turn off temporarily fast boot, secure boot, CSM if enabled
Hello again
After switching to legacy mode I managed to boot memtest from a disk. This is from my phone so excuse my brevity. Once it's finished I will snap up some shots.
Hello. After about 40 hours I have completed Memtest. No errors were found and the image is attached.

Hello.
I tested with Furmark, it reached about 83 degrees but didn't rise from there so I proceeded for an hour an image is included.
Prime95 was a bit different, the test was started and about 5 minutes later the test stopped and all the workers said Click Test to Stop or something, I have attached the log and image but I don't think it ran correctly or something failed. This test was about 79 degrees.
Intel test has an image attached.

There were approximately 7 crashes between 11/27 and 12/18/2017
There was 1 critical thermal event.
Try Prime95 again and post images/results into the thread.
I tried Prime95 again and I didn't end itself this time but I had to end it because my temps were around 88 degrees. Image of one of the workers after I ended the test also with the dm Log Collector.
There were multiple crashes on 12/20
What were you experiencing?
The last crash was today 12/22
What happened?
Please update your progress with each step in post #6
When available please post images.

I'm confused. I never had any crashes today, my computer never blue screened and never had any problems as it was doing Memtest for most of the time, I have done all the steps in post 6 without a problem and all images are in the previous pages.
