I believe the way that the recovery partitions work is that you choose to boot off of them, and then they behave like a DVD. To choose which partition to boot off of, there used to be a 1-2 second period of time where you could press F8, right before Windows began to boot, and you could select to load Windows into Safe Mode, or to load something else. My guess would be that your option to boot from the recovery partition would be in there.
