Artix hangs when booting from a live USB

Hi all,
Just writing in hopes I may be able to fix my issue as I've been wanting to swap back from Windows for a while now. No matter what iso I choose to download and attempt to install, it hangs at different times of the boot. After some troubleshooting I discovered that disabling my LAN controller through BIOS managed to allow me to boot the iso and install, but re-enabling it and attempting to boot into the system doesn't work - it just hangs on "Waiting for udev events to be processed". https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/916504889927032842/1047082861267779594/20221129_223311.jpg

Entering "loglevel=7" in the boot parameters off of a USB shows me this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1040574448908124270/1047796360365219870/20221201_214816.jpg

On the 17th of Nov I tried booting plasma-runit, which showed me this output. From what I can recall snd_hda_intel is for audio, so I tried disabling my onboard audio through BIOS but it just hangs on "Waiting for udev events to be processed" https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1040574448908124270/1042341033285001227/20221116_203016.jpg

I thought maybe it might've been a BIOS issue, so I reset it but unfortunately no luck. I'm genuinely confused because I've had no issue installing Artix before, and I haven't changed or added any new hardware to my system so I'm not too sure why it's broken.
Thanks

You better change that usb stick. It might be the usb controller issue (failing usb stick) or a kernel module that doesn't load correctly for that particular usb stick. Other than that could be the image not being good (either from inconsistencies or other write error when you created that iso live image)

After looking closely to her or his screen capture it seems he/she tried to boot from a usb hub which probably had a bajillion other devices plugged, some of them not recognized or straight up linux incompatible.
