How do you move bios setup for a motherboard from a disc to a USB and still allow it to boot?

You cannot move the BIOS into a USB device. I think you meant the boot order/setup. To do so, enter your BIOS settings page when you switch on your computer (you have to press ESC or F8 or some other key depending on your motherboard). Then search for some option labelled something like Boot setup or boot order. There change the preference from your current boot disc (where your OS is) to the desired USB device. Note that your USB device should have a boot loader to correctly boot the OS stored on it.

When I found this setting, the 'Boot Settings' dialog box had the following categories: "Boot Device Priority".
