[SOLVED] Installing Artix system freezes when it should boot up

Hello, when i try to run the Artix live from ISO, on USB, whole system freezes with black window covering blue menu. Process starts when i select The Artix iso, black window appears and nothing more changes.
Also when I try to restart the laptop, after power off, when i turn it on, system freezes on the menu in which you can select additional boot setting by pressing F12 or F2 for setup. Only reburning ISO to usb allowed me to again reach the menu where i can select the Artix iso, but it freezes again.

I attached the photo of the frozen screen with black window covering the blue menu.

Also after earlier installation of other linux distribution, issue with not shutting down completely appeared: laptop shuts down the system but the fans and leds indicating that the laptop is on, are stil on, just like it would freeze on the powering off process.

So i may have, maybe broken something by shutting down the laptop by "holding down for longer" the on/off button so it shuts off completely after freezing or when frozen in the process of shutting down?

hello akasaru

have you verified the health and function of all of your laptop's components?  Have you confirmed your BIOS is configured correctly for your boot mode?  Did you verify the signature and checksum of the ISO you are using?  Did you check your install media for errors as well?  Are there any logs in your system BIOS?  Have you performed a memory and hard drive test of your device?

I haven't verified health of the laptop, haven't confirmed that bios is configured correctly, i didn't verify the signature nor checksum, i have formatted the USB before giving it the ISO.
I don't know if there are any logs in BIOS but i will check it, I will try to do these things, thank you.

From the screenshot appears that at least you pressed a 'From (DVD or USB)' option from the menu. Next time, before doing that, press 'E' on the 'From ...' line, find the 'linux /boot/vmlinuz' entry and append the word nomodeset.

Thank you for the advice, and it is possible that the problem with system freeze was due to not properly working usb device, it was actually Micro SD card in USB adapter, when i tried installing linux from other usb device installation went well without problems.

Have you tried disabling "secure boot" in your bios (UEFI) ?
I couldn't find any "secure boot" option in the
Boot menu (if i'm not wrong, "BIOS"), and for now after installing Ubuntu Mate, the problem with computer not completely shutting down still exist.
