How do you make some picky bios boot off from USB drive GA-880GMA-UD2H I am looking at you?

The trick is to have USB FAT16/FAT32 formatted with size fitting cylinder boundaries. Simply formatting from Windows(tried XP) will not work. Best option is go with parted/gparted units cyl is your best friend! Good LUCK!

BIOS is only to detect the drivers. You will see each driver in the BIOS setting. If you have 2 hard drives, you will see 2 drives in BIOS,but if BIOS Only recognize 1,that means 1 drive have a problem. Happen to me many times. Then when finally you are in windows(desktop)then you click on my computer and click on every hard drive then you will see the size of every drive. But not the 1 that was not recognized,because it will not be present.
The operating system prompt identifies the default drive?
No, the BIOS does.
