Hi Steve,

Have you tried using a tool like dd or something equivalent to directly
write the iso to the USB flash drive?

Taking a quick look at our wiki, it seems like Rufus can perform that
task if it is configured correctly. The instructions are here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_flash_installation_media#Using_Rufus

It seems that after clicking "START" on the screen in the screenshot you
provided the software should prompt for a mode. Select "DD Image mode."

Kind regards,
