Is it possible to boot from a USB device(DVD) with this M/B? How?

I appreciate your time.

No, it is not.. The drivers aren't loaded until the machine boots, and
the OS is loaded..

It's possible to boot USB on a A7N8X Deluxe or Non Deluxe Rev2.0 AFAIK.
It works on my deluxe anyway.

I've managed to boot a USB Flash drive, which I was pretty chuffed about.

It all depends on the emulation of the USB device.
