Sounds like a perfectly reasonable request to me. Other OSs can do that.

Yes, reasonable for us 'other OS' users - but Microsoft will tear your

tells how to create a bootable USB key from Vista as part of its topic on
updating a bios from x64.

USB boot must be a BIOS option and power must be applied to the USB device
at boot.

First, I suggest an immediate upgrade to Home Premium. But I don't know if
