Hi jeepxtreme,
There is not much big change for usb recovery tools(most changes is to support new models), so the old version tools doesn't help for your case either.
if you have a bootable rufus with syslinux as bootloder( rufus can make bootable drive by syslinux), you can just copy all files from usbrecovery.v2.0.R15-T3/x86 to the usb, I think that should work.
BTW, you can ignore the "gpio_it87: Unknown Chip found, Chip 8721 Revision 4", that's just a warning. when usb recovery done, box will be powered up automatically.
