Have you set the first boot device to the USB stick? You will have to insert the USB stick into a USB port before you power-on the system or the BIOS won't see it (it cannot find something that is not there).

Does the 865 support boot from USB?

This is a very old motherboard. You may have to boot from a floppy that gave you an option to boot the usb pen drive.
