Thanks Sean,

I've bought this Cisco Console cable to USB :

http://www.amazon.com/Serial-Console-Rollover-Cable-Routers/dp/B00M2SAKMG

To use the console cable:

1) find on which COM port the console cable is installed.
2) in Putty select the serial mode, enter the COMx port and use baudrate 115200
3) hit load and start Shield. You should now be able to see what is happening during boot.
