Have you confirmed that the image you wrote to the USB drive is in the correct format and non-corrupted, can it boot on another system?

the usb drive boots ubuntu, mint 8 and fedora on a friend of mines laptop but not on mine. i also tried instlling from hard disk and failed. either i really dont understand as much about linux as i thought or im completely missing something. thanks

Are you using the select boot device option from your bios to try to boot it, or have you setup your bios to attend to boot from a USB device before the hard drive?
