You need to make the USB drive bootable for starters and most likely needs to be NTFS if you're installing vista/win7 etc.
Have a look on Google (just search for 'install windows from usb') as there are plenty of guides about, like - http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7vista-from-usb-drive-detailed-100-working-guide/

There's also software that'll do it for you WinToFlash - http://wintoflash.com/download/en/
