With DD for Windows, you do:

dd --list

To find the available devices.  One of them should correspond to your 
USB device.  Be careful!  Additionally, drives are usually also 
available as:

\\.\PhysicalDrive0
\\.\PhysicalDrive1
etc.

_Typically_, 0 will be your boot HDD.  So if you only have your boot HDD 
and the USB stick attached to the computer, \\.\PhysicalDrive1 will be 
your USB stick.  Be careful!

Note that this is in regards to gpxe.usb.  You might be interested in 
shifting discussion over to the gPXE general discussion mailing list, 
instead of the Etherboot one.  I've carbon-copied this list.  Details 
can be found at http://etherboot.org/mailman/listinfo/gpxe
