@TeflonTrout My guess is that you don't have an EFI boot block and the BIOS won't boot anything else. Sometimes there is a "legacy boot" enabled in 'security' somewhere. Not that you would have bootable windows media but that would confirm or deny that hypothesis. If a bootable windows media device worked, it's likely looking for EFI. Also, it may not boot any 'non-windows' foreign partition (using the partition type ID)

@ChuckMcManis I do have a legacy boot option, I have tried it both ways- legacy on and off. I do not have a bootable windows drive but can make one if I ever feel like it, I am on day 15 in a row of 12 hour shifts trying to amuse myself at work.
