I would suggest you to enable the ‘USB Emulation’ in the BIOS and connect the Bootable USB to the system and start the computer. Immediately at the Dell logo screen, starting tapping the key once a second until the One Time Boot menu appears .At the One Time Boot menu you should find the USB option.
Also, I would like you to check if the USB drive you are trying to use is a bootable USB by checking on a different system.

Press f12 as soon as you reboot to access the boot menu. Select the drive with win 8 install.
Edit- If the drive doesn't appear in the boot menu, the pen drive is not bootable. Research how to burn a bootable disk or drive.
