Booting with a USB connected hard drive

Posted: 06-19-2006, 02:53 AM
I have installed the 64-bit version of Vista beta 2 on a 60 gig ide hard
drive connected to my computer through a USB adapter. I have a 64-bit
processor (AMD Athlon64 3500+). It won't boot all the way. After the
Windows black screen with the gas gauge at the bottom the screen blinks blue
for a split second and then reboots. I read in another post about problems
with Vista trying to find a product connected via the USB port. Anyone know
this for sure? Am I SOL trying to run it from a USB hard drive? Thanks for
your time.
