I can get into bios and see all connected devices. The board won't boot
to a hard, USB or DVD drive. It can see all three. It is capable of
booting a USB drive. Without booting to a device, I can't load an OS.
I had read that sometimes the boards are set up for raid. If you don't
have raid devices, you have to turn it off.
