I'd advise not to touch the graphics card while it's running. 2 months ago i had a geforce GTX 660 and if you're grounded in any way, the static electricity from your hand can fry the card. Its what happened to me. As far as boot device, Not CDROM and HDD is Hard Disk Drive. So keep it at FDD.

One thing you should know though when using flash to update bios. The flash drive has to be formatted to a FAT32 File system.
