Thanks for hanging in so long. When I looked in your forum profile and noticed you were a 'tad' older than me  Grin I was most impressed with what you managed this round. I learnt a lot more and will keep working on this irritating problem.  I am sure you will be following Forum now and then.

I would like to find a test that will indicate that there is possible troubles if one has a suspect unit.  Now that I have an idea of what I am after I am inviting anyone who has a proven USB stick giving trouble booting let me know.  I would like to collect some hex dumps and look closer.   Cheesy

There have been reports such as this for years now, and I have not found a definitive answer.

From reading the few different 'solutions' some people found, it appears to be related to 'some' BIOS's having difficulty .....  most 'solutions' have been to use a different USB stick  Cheesy

Maurice, I think you long ago in this thread passed the pain/gain threshold.
No one here will consider your decision other than in that light, so no worries.  Wink

Some of us have more interest in the cause of the problem, than finding a solution (yes I mean me Cheesy ) and this can colour our responses too, which may not be 'in the best interest' of the thread starter.

I do hope you have derived some benefit from the thread ......  even if it is more familiarity with the Live USB Creator utility, and the knowledge you CAN create a working USB stick, even if it might not work on that particular PC.

Take care .......  and back to having some fun!!!  Grin  Grin
