When I try to boot from the myHack USB stick the booting process stops after loading the bios and I only see a blinking cursor.
I have prepared the MyHack USB stick according to the guide (I have tried with Lion, Snow Leopard and only chameleon + extras). I have tried it with 2 different USB sticks and the result is always the same. Since hole process is controlled by the myHack app and I don't get any error messages from the app I don't know what else to try.
Please help!
Thanks in advance.
The system specs:
Intel core 2 duo E6750, 2.66 GHz
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-G41MT-S2 (bios F6)
4 GB RAM
Gigabyte GeForce 210 - 512 MB

Cannot boot from MyHack USB stick

Thanks for all your suggestions but, unfortunately, they didn't solve my problem.
In the end the only solution that I found was to create the bootable flash drive using an old version of myHack (1.1.4) that I found on another site.
Apparently the problem is that the myHack 2 app must run in a mac with snow leo or lion to create a usable boot disk.
If this is a real requirement (I couldn't find a word about it anywhere) a warning about this should be placed somewhere to prevent other people to do the same mistakes that I did.
