Check in BIOS, change boot order. Or read the screen at boot. There will be a key to press to bring up a boot device selection.

I've changed boot order but windows 8 keeps loading. I've tested the disk and usb drive in another computer and they work as start-up disks. There might be a key to force the boot but I don't know of one and Toshiba was no help.
