There are a number of products to do it, you could easily find what suites you. The main issue is: you need to make your flash drive bootable, and the computer firmware should support it.

Please see; this is just one:

And don't forget to enable 'boot from USB' or something like that in BIOS settings.

Thank you, I won't, hope OP will remember, too. :-)

By the way, not all systems have BIOS:

So, I would vote 4 for your note... :-)
