Recently I've been trying to install Ubuntu alongside my Windows 10 installation. I've already shrinked my C: partition by 200GB, so there's plety of space. However, after mounting the Ubuntu iso on my USB drive (Using GPT mode for UEFI), it never shows up under the devices to boot from.



If I mount the USB again using the correct mode for the legacy BIOS and change the BIOS to legacy mode, I can boot from the USB without issues, but I won't be able to dual boot, since Windows itself is installed in UEFI mode.



What can I do?

          You dont have to change the firmware settings to leagcy..



          Just connect the bootable pen drive then enter into bios..there u will get boot menu -> enter into boot menu.



          It will show all the bootable medias. In that two options for pen drive will appear one for legacy ,one for uefi ..



          select uefi pendrive name option from that and then boot from it.



          In this way your system will boot in uefi mode.



          Hope it could help you
