USB Emulation: Enabled (this is required for USB devices to work outside Windows)
Save the settings and go back into Windows (I use XP Pro SP2).
Make sure in Windows you format your Flash Drive with the "HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool". This can be downloaded for free from HP's site.
I am currently using v2.0.6 and it works just fine.
To make the flash drive boot into DOS, for example, you need to have DOS somewhere on your computer. I believe HP also has a downloadable pack with DOS (Windows98 version).
Hope this helps out some of you with this particular issue...
BTW, this also works on the M70, except the BIOS options are under different menus.

Go into the BIOS setup and look for that option under booting device sequence.
