Boot from USB hang up on Verifying DMI Pool Data

Hello!

This is not exactly Fedora problem - booting stuck on Verifying DMI Pool Data when I try to boot from USB(to install operatinng system)
Other boot options works OK - boot from HD, Grub loading, boot Windows 7 or Linux, and boot from CD or DVD.

This problem appears after I created bootable USB for Suse 11.4 with Suse Studio Image Writer(done in Windows)
Boot from this USB was succesful, but when i try to replace suse with Fedora 17 Desktop - USB created with Fedora Live USB Creator in Windows, booting stop at Verifyng...etc...

After this, no boot from USB is possible, try to instal from USB Suse 11.4 again, then Fedora 16 Desktop, Windows 8 - computer allways stuck on state described above and stay unresponsible.
No restart with Ctrl+Alt+Del, only forced restart with reset button, nothing else.

What may be the problem?
I asked Google and find some answers which provided some actions with CMOS(BIOS) but none of them is precisely to my problem.

I am running dual boot(allways) Windows 7 and Linux(one of distros), now is Fedora 16(only distro on CD which I have)

Thanks for answers

You could try to reset your BIOS settings to factory defaults like Mister Google suggested ;-)

Don't forget to write down your old BIOS settings before you try this.

Re: Boot from USB hang up on Verifying DMI Pool Data

Try to reset CMOS, load Optimized Value for BIOS - manufacturer(Gygabyte) - tutorial - no effect.
Then i formated USB stick on another computer and make Fedora 17 Installation USB(from DVD iso - make it with Fedora Live USB Creator in Fedora.
Reinstall Windows, then make fresh install for Fedora.
Everything OK - boot from usb, installation.
It seems to be problem in Windows.

Just one question - described problem appears after making bootable USB for openSUSE with Suse Image Writer.
Is this only a coincidence or may be the cause of problem?
I tryed before many distros and make bootable USB with many tools - never be any problem.

However, after this i am go away from suse forever, stay on Fedora.
