Geez, this sounds familiar. I got a 32GB Emtec and put the ISO for 
Lubuntu 14.04 on it. I booted from it and installed Lubuntu on two PCs. 
Then I put a different bootable ISO on the USB drive. Will not boot. 
Used 3 different programs on Linux and one or two on the Mac. No go. 
Files are there, leaves a flashing cursor on screen. So I figure I 
must've got a bad source file. Get an entirely different bootable ISO, 
used all the programs again. Flashing cursor.

I still haven't figured out what's up with that.
