There shouldn't be any issues with that particular chipset. You should check with the manufacturer of your computer to see if they have any BIOS updates -- I really don't think you'll need one, though, and you can use the boot floppy if your current BIOS doesn't support booting from USB. Have you tried the instructions from the wiki?
