Any usb port should work, you may have to set your usb ports to legacy mode in BIOS. You'll have to check your manufacturers website for BIOS updates. You could always try Frostys mod cd.

Also worth formatting it in FAT if it doesn't boot from a FAT32 formatted stick and use a smallish capacity stick (anything upto 2 gb is recommended)

Man we're good but not that good, there's really no way for us to know the full settings of every bios out there. :D :D
