[lug-l] Request help for install

[Katherine May <kemay@xxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to install Linux Mint on my new Asus laptop with Windows 8.1, and the computer utterly refuses to boot off the flash drive I prepared.

I've tried the "through Windows" method detailed here: http://www.howtogeek.com/175641/how-to-boot-and-install-linux-on-a-uefi-pc-with-secure-boot/

And a friend has tried to do it through BIOS by changing the boot priorities. Both methods give me a "No Operating System" error message.

I'd really appreciate any help available.
