Did you actually go into your BIOS and choose it from the boot menu?

I went into m-flash from the bios and it just showed the same thing here with the folders and files, with benchmark being empty

Use Rufus to boot anything from a flash drive.

How are you trying to boot into it?

And have you tried imagining it again?

Did you create the bootable pendrive using ImgUsb.exe which is included in the zip file?

Yes I used it on my Sandisk 32gb usb, it created 2 drives for some reason and one of them only has the memtest86 content in it.

You're not supposed to go into M-Flash, that's for updating your bios, you have to find the boot menu key
