No, I'm afraid that isn't the case, at all. As the Dialog box clearly
states, it creates an "*MS-DOS* start-up disk." This most definitely
isn't the same operating system as Vista. MS-DOS has no support for USB
devices.

You'll need to obtain and use a PS/2 keyboard to access the BIOS and
enable "Legacy USB Support," which will allow the motherboard to accept
a USB keyboard before Windows is loaded.
