Black Screen with a single non-flash underscore after Fresh Install

I’ve decided to install Endeavor OS today for the first time but after carefully installing right as it restart and tries to boot to the OS it just stuck on this (picture I attached). Need help as I’m still new to this

Laptop Specs :

Ryzen 7 5800H
GTX 1650
32 GB RAM
512 GB NVMe SSD (with Windows)
1 TB NVMe SSD (allocated 256 GB for EOS)

I recently had the same issue. Take a look at this thread. New install - Black screen.

TLDR - Use live usb to chroot and run nvidia-inst.

alrighty, I’ll will try this.

I’ve done the chroot and the install nvidia-inst but now its stuck at this

alright finally got it working, might have typed something wrong or something. Thanks!

Sorry for jumping in, extreme noob here, but Im having the same exact issue with a similar PC.

This is my first time trying a Linux distro other than ubuntu or LM and I’ve never came across or used chroot. How do i run nvidia-inst with a live usb? I assume the same one I used to install endeavourOS but beyond that I’m a little lost.

Sorry

I figured it would be better deleting a trivial question I later figured out but now it looks worse.

Thanks for this. Got my old laptop with hybrid amd+nvidia gpu working.
