Im a beginner at computer building, and have run into trouble. Recently I finished building my pc, so I have no operating system, but I have a USB with windows 8 on it. I've looked all over the internet and can't find a way to install it without an existing operating system. Is there anyone who had this problem or knows how to do this? It would be greatly appreciated .

The flash drive needs to be bootable, and the board's bios has to be able to boot to the flash drive. Also the win installation on the flash drive can't be an ISO file. If it is an ISO file, it needs to first be "burned" to DVD or a flash drive.
