Can't create bootable usb

Hello everyone.

I had a legacy generic x64 install (phenom 2 if you need to know)

and i ran into difficulties trying to boot, i have a samba/mysql setup and library always came empty

tried deleting .kodi to start fresh and didnt work, so i went for a reinstall, its an sd to usb adapter so i figured power outages destroyed my install

So now i use the LibreELEC.USB-SD.Creator.Win32.exe for creating a bootable sd, i tried the one i had before an other usb sticks i had around

Looks like my motherboard can't work with the bootable sd i made, tested on a laptop, and worked fine, just doesnt even finish post on my phenom 2

I tried following another thread that sounded like had some of the same problems

LibreELEC Legacy boot

Hello does not speak English, I write through the compiler. Nowhere I can not find information on how to install LibreELEC normal PC without UEFI. If I create a bootable USB flash according to the instructions, created the GPT partition.
My laptop LCD without handles playback and H265 in fullHD, I have no reason to change it.
PS: So far Kodibuntu function does not work anymore and mainly contains needlessly whole person who starts a long time.
PPS: I can not at all with Linux. I can handle just…

they suggested i do a syslinux bootable and copy the files into this for install but didnt work either, i get a 'error in mount_storage: could not mount UUID=(the short one)

so im stuck and out of ideas

can you guys help me keep this old pc out of the land fill?

thank you

OK, i didnt find a way to boot this usb from my old pc

But i ran the installer in 'legacy' mode in my laptop's bios, and this created an sd that boots in my old phenom 2

so in case anyone needs it:

1) Create the usb installer as indicated with LibreELEC.USB-SD.Creator.Win32.exe

2) Boot this installer from a legacy bios option (or csm idk)

3) install to another usb/sd (i had to wait for the install/live/run option to plug my second usb or my laptop freaked out)

4) take this usb into your old pc
