    Do you want to format a USB drive or use a USB drive loaded with some boot disc to wipe the internal HDD in your computer?

    First off... you have the latest BIOS. You should be able to boot from a correctly formatted USB. BIOS settings... make sure it is set to allow booting from USB and that it is the first in boot order.

    The question is... what Operating System are you trying to re-install?
