Here is what I do with usb creator
1. download a distro make sure its a "live" Distro """
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora """
2. format the flash drive as fat 32
3 run usb creator and point it to your downloaded distro iso file
4 reboot
5 set bios to boot from usb
6 boot from usb.

If your running windows you can do the same with Unetbootin.
http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
 If your using unetbootin you still have to format the drive as fat 32
then follow the same steps.
