There is probably a way on your machine to disable legacy boot and also select to boot from USB when legacy boot is disabled.
When I installed Arch alongside Windows 8, I had the same problem that it didn't offer me a UEFI boot option. I think I had to disable CSM (Compatibility Support Module) in my BIOS settings. After that, it worked perfectly. It will probably not be the same for you, since I have an Asus BIOS. But the option was about some "non-UEFI driver add-on devices". Hope that helps.
