You probably need to change the bios setup to enable legacy support for usb.
You should be able to enter the bios setup by restarting the computer and when the first screen appears
look for the word "setup" to enter you will have to press the key that is listed, usually F1, F2, F10, or something similar.
You usually only have a couple of seconds to enter the key before the screen changes so you have to be quick. If you don't get it on the first try just restart and try again.
Once in the bios you will need to find the settings for USB legacy support, it is different with different bios types, so I can't tell you where it is.
Be careful not to change any settings if you don't know what you are doing as settings in the bios control your hardware and can cause problems if set wrong.
When enabled, USB legacy support
allows the following:
Startup from bootable USB devices, including a hard drive, diskette drive,
or optical drive connected by a USB port to the computer.
