Creating a bootable USB drive that works

I've tried many ways to create a bootable USB thumb drive, with no success. Is there a fool-proof way to create one? I have a 1GB Cruzer, and a 1 GB PNY drive, and neither seems to work.

If you are looking to make a bootable Windows installation disk, then check this out:

This is a handy app which will basicly create a separate partition on your USB that emulates a floppy drive. You can then make the emulated floppy drive into a normal win98 bootable floppy, or anything else.
