This is the correct answer for my question and I got it by researching in another Forum:    

Go to Boot in BIOS and enable the option Laucnh CSM and sub option Launch PXE OpROM. I was stuck with the same issue then after some research I could make it work and I was like    and also, under Security option in BIOS, Go to 'Secure Boot Control' (You need to scroll down) and DISABLE it to boot from any media.

 

When you Restart, hit ESC to see the Boot Menu Option.

What you will have to do to change the boot order is to restart your computer and keep pressing ESC. There you will be able to change your boot order to USB flash drive or CD.
