So I recently put together this PC:

I'm having trouble installing the OS. I got Windows 7 Pro from Dreamspark (iso) and used Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool to make a bootable usb. The USB I'm using is an ativia 4gb usb flash drive (2.0). I can get into my BIOS and from the BIOS Features tab and set the usb as option 1 from the Hard Drive BBS properties, but when I save the options and reboot I get the black screen with ".... insert bootable drive ...." text.
I should note that I am using the hard drive from my old computer in this new build. I'm not sure if that has something to do with the issue. It is a SATA PM: Hitachi HDS720175CLA. I set the hard drive to boot uption 2.
Anyone able to help me through this? Thanks in advance.
