Hi to all,

I have an Motherboard Asus K8N E Deluxe, and I don't see the USB option in
Bios Settings, the result is I can't boot with an external HD plug in USB.
Does anyone knows if the Bios update allows to add this function ? (I tried
to consult Asus Website but it is not very clear on the subject)

Thanks for your help,

Jerome

With the USB drive plugged in, can you go to the Boot Menu and
see the USB drive listed under the hard drive section ?

A second option, is try pressing F8 when the BIOS first POSTs
and see if there is a popup boot menu that lists the drive
there.
