Exactly, this is what I was thinking as I read this. I've got an Intel board with 67 chipset, which has comparable tech in it. The way to do a full initialise, i.e. turn off all the optimisations, is to press and hold the power button for about 4 seconds (it gives off four beeps). Then you are in a full BIOS/UEFI environment, and you can change the optimisations to allow booting from USB.
