Ghost USB ports deactivate

Hello,

While using the Ghost Boot Wizard to create a bootable USB device I run into the issue where after the client comes up the ports are all of a sudden deactivated. I was initially under the impression that the USB device used to boot up to the WinPE was just being unmounted but found out later while inserting another usb device and running diskpart that the ports are actually being deactivated. I did search the forum but did not see an incident similar to this one. Below is what I'm using. Thoughts?

Windows Server 2008

GCS ver 11.5.1.2266

Laptop: DELL Latitude E6420

USB Device/s: SanDisk Cruzer Orbit 32GB; Sabrent USB 2.0 Cable to SATA Adpater
