USB booting :: Changing system brings trouble

A few weeks ago when I first put DSL on a bootable keydrive, it worked great on the computer I had. The boot up screen was blue (Different from the normal live CD bootup screen like I would suspect) and everything worked fine. However, I have just recently gotten my mini ITX board, and thought it would work well right away. I enabled USB HDD bootup and thought it would be fine.

However, when I try to boot up, it almost always gives me a no system disk found error, and on the one out of twenty times it does start into linux, it gives me the live CD boot screen, and then gets stuck at 'looking for DSL image in /dev/sda' or whatever the path is. Now I can't even get it to go that far. So I tried the same key on this laptop, and it does the same crap at boot up. Any ideas or suggestions. I kind of need a working computer soon, but this has got me stumped.

Just a shot, but try disabling USB 2.0 on your motherboard so that it only uses USB 1.x (the setting(s) should be in your BIOS).
