trouble booting Ubuntu from USB on Sony Vaio

I'm resurrecting a PIII era Sony Vaio that has no cd drive. I created a bootable USB stick via Ubuntu, in the hopes of loading the distro this way. However, booting via USB isn't shown as an option in the BIOS. There's got to be a way to do this. Any help is greatly appreciated!
