Can't see hard drive in second USB boot

I fixed the problem with the drive. It was a BIOS setting restricting boot to UEFI devices.

Can you be more specific with the BIOS setting for this fix please? I have the same problem. After the initial boot from USB, I can install OSX on my SSD. The drive is recognized in disk utility and installation is successful on a brand new, journaled, and partitioned GUID SSD. After I restart and boot from USB again, I have no driver options in Chimera, just the original "USB" option. This brings me the installation page again, and around around I go.
 
SOLVED

I had to select "UEFI only" setting in the storage device boot option. With this option, I can see my SSD in Chimera. I do not know if this is messing up other aspects of my build though, as I read that UEFI options are not supported in hack****sh. My VisionTek Data Fusion PCIE SSD is fully bootable without USB.
