write to the first 512 bytes of the device, with the last byte having the value of "55 AA". OR the simplier way is to use this:

What OS are you trying to put on there? Lots of Linux Distros have an install to usb pen drive option which will do all of this for you. HP also has a nice tool to format a USB stick and make it bootable which I have used in the past.

The link I posted has a link to the HP tool you've probably used.

Yup thats it, I didn't see the link and I thought it was just part of your signature the first time around.
