Just curious if I have a P5E setting wrong somewhere.

I have 2 USB flash thumb drives as well as 2 more USB hard drives. When I
enter the BIOS EZ Flash 2, it sees my A, C, and D drives (all SATA
partitions) but not a single one of my 4 USB drives.

Does the BOIS EZ Flash 2 work with a flash drive for anyone else?

I don't have any experience with USB harddrives.
When I enter the EZ Flash BIOS utility the only drives that show up are my
thumb drives.
For me A: is the thumb drive that I use to load the new BIOS
and C: is an internally installed thumb drive dedicated to Ready Boost
If I stick another thumb drive in it becomes B:
To navigate amongst fields in the utility use the tab and arrow keys.

I have a USB CF/SD/MMC card reader, and have used it with ezflash2, I
had to ensure the memeory card was in the PC at the time it was booted,
so that ezflash2 would see the file on the memory card, inserting the
car between boot and starting ezflash2 wasn't good enough.
