Boot Menu

I have a Dell Dimension XPS b933 that I recently took out from my basement. I wanted to boot from a Flashdrive, but there is no way that I can get into the boot menu. I tried F12, F2, but nothing. I tried it on my laptop, and it booted perfectly from the Flashdrive(I pressed F12). Any way to get into the Boot Menu on dell Dimension XPS b933? It doesn' say what button will take me to the boot menu when it is starting up. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The Boot Menu can be found in the System Setup.

Turn on (or restart) your system.

When the blue Dell logo appears, press .

If you wait too long and the operating system begins to load into memory, let the system complete the load operation. Then shut down the system and try again.

I tried that and it worked. I have another problem though. How do I boot from a flash drive, like I would from a CD? Don't worry, I already made the Flash Drive boootable, and it works. I tried it on another Computer.:emotion-5: So is there any way to boot from a Flash Drive?

I don't think the obsolete XPS B Series has the option to boot from a USB Flash Drive.
