just incase anyone else has this issue, edit the startup.txt file under the main directory and make sure it isn't blank. if it is, insert this:
Code:
set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 2292
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78 7x00.a11=500 msmvkeyb_toggle=off pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=2,1,3 pm.sleep_mode=2 rel_path=andboot hw3d.force=0 htc_battery_smem.fake=0 acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=716800 physkeyboard=tilt2 htc_hw.force_cdma=0 "
Boot
and you should be fine.
