I'm trying to flash a samsung drive and I'm following the 2008 textbook pdf.
I've got the iprep program set up and formatted my 4gb sandisk usb drive.
However when I boot to the bios I can't select the usb drive. I don't think the bios on my comp supports it. I contacted the comp manufacturer and there's no bios updates for my mobo.

I'm kind of assuming that I can use a usb floppy drive and disk instead but I'd like to be sure before I go and buy one.
Am I thinking in the right direction or is there something I am missing?
Thanks
