On the same PC, I can use USN device for booting Vista, WinXP as well as WHS. So I don't think that the problem is on the BIOS setup. It doesn't seem to be that the problem is at the USB device at all because I can't boot WHS receovery Cd from aby USB connected device including HDD, external CD-ROM as well as USB drives (at least three).

Drashna,

I tried this method with WHS recovery CD without success. I tried several types USB drives including 1GB, 2GB and 4GB. I also tried using external USB drive (HDD). All failed in booting WHS recobery CD. The error message is something like ‘In order to protect Windows, the system will be shutdown …’ during the boot of the recovery CD.

Have you tried this with WHS recovery CD? If yes, what kind of USB drive you used?
