[SOLVED] How to get motherboard to recognise boot USB?

[Insane Potatoz]

Hello everyone, I'm setting up a budget build with the Asus P8H61-M LX3 motherboard, and I can't find a setting in the Bios that lets me boot from USB... but USB boot is the only option I have for windows. I've heard of old motherboards not supporting USB booting, so would this be the problem? If I can't boot from USB, what should I do? Thanks.

So, you're saying that here, Page 57,

you don't have the option to select properly prepared USB drive?

That Bios looks a little different than mine, but I was able to press F8 during the first boot and I'm gonna see if it works

It didn't work, I was able to select my USB device but after that it just says: "Reboot and select proper boot device"
Buuuuuuuuuut after slapping an "unactivated" windows USB in there i got to the windows setup... Thanks!
