I made a bootable USB DOK using the MS download tool taken from here: http://wudt.codeplex.com/ and that seems OK.

In the BIOS I defined "removable device" as the first in order to boot from but whenever I restart my computer, Windows starts from my HD. While booting, I pressed TAB, DEL, space, F8, F9, ESC and I either get to the BIOS or to the boot manager from which I can start windows.... nothing about booting from the DOK.

This is my motherboard:

What am I missing?
Thanks!

I have a x64 system and I created a x64 bootable (I think?)
The thing is I don't have USB-HDD, I only have the HDD, CD, removable... and disabled.
The DOK is plugged in to the USB all this time. I read that F8 while booting should do the trick but for me I get only one option and that is start windows, no USB option.

BTW, I can run setup.exe from the USB and it seems to start the installation of Windows but it doesn't do it as a clean installation, this is why I want to start it as boot, hoping it will be from scratch there
