So my laptop is an HP envy x360 from 2014 with an intel Haswell processor. I flashed ubuntu on an usb drive and when I get into the grub installation screen and hit “try ubuntu without installing” I am presented with a black screen.

I tried adding nomodeset to the boot options, disabled secure boot, tried legacy mode in the bios settings , all without success, if anyone owning an hp laptop knows how to fix my issue please hit me up. I’m getting desperate.

It appears that HP has messed up their BIOS configuration.

Please see this for a more detailed answer (by Boldos).

Why won't my HP Envy x360 laptop with Ryzen 7 3700U boot Ubuntu live CD?
