I have an Asus vivotab note 8 M80TA that I'm trying to dual boot windows 10 and android 5.1.1. I downloaded the iso from android-x86.org and put it on my usb drive using rufus. I went into my tablet bios and disable secure boot and everything. But no matter which methods I use, I cannot get my tablet to boot from the usb! The bios boot options only show two options: Windows boot manager or disabled. Both options boot straight into windows. I also tried booting using the windows recovery, however there was no option to use a removable drive or usb in the windows recovery. some help please?

I've seen some people online who've managed to install it. I've managed to get my usb to appear in the recovery, and it appears as UEFI:<usb device blah blah> but using it makes it boot to windows again. BIOS still doesn't recognize usb
