In my bios:
Hard Disk Boot Priority: 1 500gb sata drive, 2 250gb maxtor drive, 3
bootable addin cards.

First boot device : Sata- cdrom
Second boot device - Hard disk
Third boot device - usb-fdd

I tried changing the second and third device around but it made no difference.

Right now Im stuck at not being able to get my cd or thumb drive to
start during boot.

It sounds like you need to re-set your BIOS so it boots first on a CD
or DVD, second a USB bootable device third Hard Disk.

Your Bios is confused because the First boot device is listed as a Sata
cd-rom which is not correct.

When booting from a usb stick, does it matter what slot (front or back) the
thumb drive is in?

    Assuming that both USB devices work, either one will work.
