Aspire ES1-512 will not boot Windows, cannot access UEFI or BIOS

After some issues with a new Build of Windows 10, I rolled back to the previous version and now it will not boot, nor will the BIOS or UEFI screens appear.  This dialog comes up:IMG_20170517_174711808.jpg

 

After choosing OK, I get the following screen:

The hard drive appears on the list but when I select it I get the same message.  I tried two different Windows bootable USB drives (Windows PE recovery drive created with Macrium Reflect, Windows installation disk) but they do not appear on the list.  I then tried an Ubuntu boot repair drive, it showed up on the list and I was able to boot.  The hard drive showed up and all of the data is intact.  Running linux boot-repair did not resolve the issue.

 

So the bottom line is that I cannot access BIOS or UEFI and it appears that Windows boot devices are not recognized, but it will recognize linux boot devices.  Any ideas?
