I wanted to upgrade from Ubuntu 16.04 to 17.04.

I created a bootable usb stick in Ubuntu 16.04 using Startup Disk Creator selecting the downloaded 17.04 iso.

I'm using a Kingston 8GB usb stick.

I can select the stick in the BIOS and boot menu, but the system keeps starting up as usual via the main start up disk. Ignoring the usb stick.

I'm reading similar posts about the matter, but I don't find a suitable answer.

I'm not sure, but I think the USB may not actually be formatted or created correctly. You may have to write it to the USB again, using a different burning utility like gnome-disks, because you may see the USB in the BIOS, but that does not necessarily mean it is bootable. I recommend reformatting and burning the USB with the stated tool.
