UPDATE: issue fixed. My USB drive was probably an older format since after trying again unsuccessfully, I plugged it into another USB port which must be a backwards compatible port sonce after that it worked smoothly

It probably dropped down to usb 1 speeds. It would boot eventually but it would take an hour

I’ve had installations hang a long while before eventually succeeding. I would also ensure Windows has hibernate turned off and quick boot disabled.
