Memory stick must be set up with the correct software. Also, there must be nothing else on the memory stick, and it can be a maximum size of 8GB (or 16GB, I cannot remember exactly now). You must also set your BIOS to boot from the memory stick and not the CD/DVD drive or HDD.

Well if your BIOS won't detect anything, I'd say it's time to get a new motherboard. Or a new computer. Electronics will only last for so long, you know. I'm guessing that your system quit working, and you're trying to fix it. Well, your system probably quit working because your motherboard's BIOS quit working, and when your BIOS kicks the bucket (dies) it's high time to get a new computer, or at least a new motherboard.
