   When getting into the boot menu, no option is given for booting from a USB stick. How do I boot from USB?

This is an Asrock Crossfire B460m pro 4s ac motherboard.

	Manhattanman I'm a newbie too but happen to run across this info last night. I hope this helps you! Please extract the zip file after downloading the BIOS rom file from ASRock website. Save the BIOS files on a FAT32 formatted USB disk. Press [F2] during POST to get into BIOS setup menu. Select the Instant Flash utility under [Tool] menu to execute it.

	Thanks. The bios is currently set at P1 30, but I noticed a page that recommends upgrading the bios to P1 50 for this particular MB. Do you know anything about this update? Is it safe?

	Coming from Asrock I'm sure it would be safe! But to be honest I know nothing about Intel boards, Sorry! Best of luck!
