Other devices may not mean USB, what options does your BIOS have for boot order? And how do you know your usb drive boots? Does it work in other computers? Did you check your computer system to make sure it can boot from USB?

As mentioned, your motherboard needs to support booting from USB. Also, the USB drive has to be made bootable. You need both for it to work. Check your motherboard manual to see if it supports booting from USB first.

If you don't know if your USB stick even boots how will you use it to boot? Test it in another system and read the manual for your computer to see if it supports booting from USB.
