Bootloaders not working!

Hello everyone again.
I've recently bought a new laptop (Asus K56CB) which obviously has UEFI and I've been trying to get arch on it the whole day but I've failed everytime!

I simply cannot get any bootloader to work, I've followed the Beginners' Guide closely and my laptop just boots to the UEFI menu every time. I've tried using gummiboot, grub and refind. I've also tried to manually create an entry using efibootmgr but none worked! I even tried the fix creating a Windows directory in boot EFI with the live media´s file and renaming it.

I've been at it for hours, tried multiple things and I just can't see what I'm doing wrong, keep in mind this is my first time installing on a UEFI computer.

Here is the output of gdisk -l & lsblk -f.

Please don't post screenshots of text, post the actual text: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … in_clients

Also, "none worked" is not an error message https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

Re: Bootloaders not working!

Sorry.
I've followed the steps on the guide, none of the bootloaders return any errors and seem to setup just fine. Upon reboot I am always sent to the UEFI menu.

Here are the outputs in text
lsblk -f

There are no errors upon boot, because It never once booted to arch, I've always had to chroot to the install.
