Back to the main problem… F12 not working or USB image incorrect.

things done:
=install the memstick image to USB using physdiskwrite successful
=install the same on SD
=install SD and USB stick one at a time but failed
=at one point on the startup press F12 and select the proper drive but still failing to boot

Pls help as we know we have an issue on the supplied mSATA ssd

F12 is not functioning, it is not booting from the USB stick

Booting from 0000:7c00

I tried:

physdiskwrite
HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool" for formating and Win32DiskImage to write the image to USB

Resolved.
Hyperterminal in Windows did not work.
Downloaded Putty and F12 was working.
