problem flashing ROM from SD

I am having a weird issue here.

I've got a TMOUSA HD2 with HSPL flashed on here, I flash custom ROMs all the time via RUU. I lost my USB cord and wanted to flash the new Energy ROM, so I downloaded, extracted it and moved LEOIMG.NBH to the root of my SD card, I put the SD card back in my HD2 and turned it on with VOL DOWN, it goes to bootloader and just says "serial" on the bottom and never does anything. How do I get it to recognize my ROM?

(sd is formatted FAT32)

What size card and class are you using? The card that comes in the phone is too large, usually only will flash with 8gb or smaller. It is also needs to be a higher class card. I use a 4gb (class 6 I believe) and it works every time. I haven't tried doing it that way since using android but I don't think that should affect it.

I have been able to only flash bootscreens with the 16gb, and once a radio. I use a 2gb class2 to flash with. But, my 8gb class2 worked in the past for flashing my tp2.

yeah it was the damn 16gb card that came with it, apparently it works on 8gb or less, since I got a new USB cable, I been flashing thru RUU just fine now. Thanks for the data.
