Boots to black screen cant open terminal

You should be able to boot with the USB installer. There you can use the terminal and give commands.

Just checking in Axel----how is it going?

Not good
My pc won’t boot into any live iso

Which ISO are you using? How did you create the ISO?

Edit: Do you know the specs of your hardware? What graphics card? Etc.

Latest En Os iso burned onto a usb with balena Etcher

Ryzen 7 2700
Rog rx580 8gb oc
Rog b450 f motherboard
32 gigs of ram

Well i used etcher myself and haven’t had any issues with it although I’m not also using popsicle.

Should be absolutely no reason for it not to boot up on the live ISO.

Tried the manjaro iso too
Same result

Are you sure it’s even booting off of the usb? I think it is F8 key when you see the asus logo to change boot device and select usb.

I used boot override in the bios and it starts up then my monitor stops recieving hdmi signal

That’s strange! Do you have secure boot and fast boot disabled?

I have fast boot disabled let me check secure boot

So you installed it before and it booted to a black screen after it had originally worked? Is it still installed and you are trying to boot off the live ISO and it won’t work? I’m trying to understand where you are at?

That’s basically where I’m at

Well it doesn’t make sense to me. If you boot off the live ISO should work. What is this monitor stops receiving HDMI signal? What do you mean and exactly what is happening? Are you able to hook the monitor up with another input such as VGA or DVI or can you try another HDMI cable?

Have you tried using other USB ports of your machine?

I have one suggestion, check in bios an option to try to boot using either legacy or uefi modes and see if one or the other works. I had this once that I created my usb on windows in legacy mode and could not boot the usb on another system in efi. Worth the shot.

I tried everything
(thank you all for the suggestions)
But I think something is wrong with my pc’s hardware
(It won’t even let me install Windows)

For now, I’m running en os on my laptop
As it works perfectly on there.

Also worth checking, just in case:
