Does the stick need to be formated to FAT32? or something like that for it to read?

ok,
My initial thought was that it had the wrong partition type on it, but since it´s a 16GB stick then it should have the proper one already.
See if my tests in this thread does anything for you.

Nope, no joy, I think some thing must be wrong as the USB option is greyed out. Ill need to have a look in the morning.
