During the creation of bootable USB using Rufus, even the selection is for BIOS or UEFI, the bootable usb is creating only for UEFI. I also tried using Etcher, but the problem is not solved!! Please suggest the solution.

You can use the USB startup disk creator instead of Rufus. It will wipe out everything already on the USB stick though.

Can you help with this problem?
