Unable to start Acronis from Rescue media.
I can boot to the rescue media and I am presented with the selection screen to boot acronis or start Windows. The keyboard and mouse won't function and it eventually tries to start Windows.
I have tried creating the rescue media with force_modules=usbhid but that did the same thing.
Pressing F11 does nothing, it's as if the keyboard is not active. I have the latest BIOS/UEFI version. I have tried using 2015, 2014, and 2012 and they all do the same thing. Any suggestions? I'm stuck with out a restore option.

I have created the media myself and have downloaded the latest ISO for 2014. Both did the same. In my BIOS settings I noticed the USB wasn't enabled as a boot, it seemed to toggle itself off when I tried to enable it. After fooling around with it I was able to save and exit and boot to USB 2015 media. I might have an issue with the USB bus. Seems to be working now, thank you for a great product.

James, thanks for the feedback, glad to hear that the media seems to be working now. I find with some of my own systems that the USB device selection / priority options in the BIOS are only valid when I have a device actually plugged in, so I set the option when a device is connected and it remembers that for when I want to boot from a USB device at a later time.
