I think you can use your USB DVD drive or if you have an IDE to USB adapter, that you can try to hook it with your DVD drive. Then try to setup you BIOS in order to boot up your USB devices.

use a USB DVD drive or if you have an IDE to USB adapter you can hook it to your DVD drive and set the bios to boot USB devices.

You need to Put a bootable floppy disk in your drive and you will also required to Download mkbt20.zip and unpack to to new temp folder you have created.
Extract the bootsector from the bootable floppy disk to the temp folder.. eg Open a DOS Window and go to the directory where you extracted MKBT. Type:

mkbt -c a: bootsect.bin

You need to save the boot sectors from the bootable floppy disk to a file in the temp folder you created. Format the flash drive in FAT or FAT16. Copy the bootsector to the flash drive. Open a DOS Window and go to the folder where you extracted MKBT. Type:

mkbt -x bootsect.bin Z:

"Z" represents the flash drive drive Letter it would be the irrespective to the drive you would be having in your computer system. So if your flash drive has another drive letter, then change the flash drive name accordingly.
