How do I get my usb device to show in the BIOS so I can boot from it? I'm thinking this may be a bug and if so I really doubt they will ever get around to fixing it.
it will show as an HDD.
I'm not seeing anything that resembles a hard drive. Other than the real hard drives.
what device is it?
It's configured as a bootable disk?
It's a PNY 8gb Attache flash drive.
I know it works, because it boots from my laptop. It's a linux distro called backtrack that is on it.
The only thing that I'm thinking is that there is some oddball option in the BIOS that needs switching on, but I checked and double checked and didn't see anything.
You need to change the boot order in the BIOS so that the USB device is set before your hard drive(s).

I know that. Look:Originally Posted by shaithis
I don't see it anywhere in the BIOS. I can assure you that my flash drive is connected. Unless there's some odd ball switch that I'm not seeing, I'm guessing it's a bug.
Am I the only one with this problem?
scroll down, you aren't at the end of the boot device menu.
I did. There's three pics there. It's not there.
on your 3rd screen scroll further.
If I scroll further on the third screen I will see the second screen
It should appear in the first screen as that is where my SD card shows up and where it shows up in my laptop.
no, you still have some entries not yet in the windowIf I scroll further on the third screen I will see the second screen
I'm sorry dude, but I don't. I just don't. The USB stick is not showing in the BIOS. Even if there were additional entries it doesn't matter because it would show in the BIOS option menu, "Hard Disk Boot Priority."
It sounds like you are having the same problem as I had. Check out this thread (with the solution):
IP35-E USB boot: Boot error
I had the same problem and this works for me:
Go to advanced cmos feature>hard disk boot priority.
Set the usb device priority here
Set hard disc as first bot device
and that's it
