Fresh install Showing booting into a Black screen with error " failed to start system logging service"

Welcome to the Forum!

Let me ask some Questions first:

  • Is this a Dual-Boot System?
  • Are Secure Boot and Fast Boot in BIOS turned off?
  • If Windows is installed: Is Fast Start-Up in Windows turned off?
  • Did You checked the Checksum of the ISO?
  • What Tool did You use to create the bootable USB Stick?
  • Is Your BIOS in UEFI or Legacy Mode?

yes it is in dual boot
secure boot and fast boot are disabled
yes it is turned of even in windows
I downloaded the ISO from the official site
I used Rufus
UEFI

And did You checked the Checksum?

When You BIOS is in UEFI Mode, what did You choose in Rufus at the Option ''Partition Sheme''? Because Your BIOS is UEFI, You should choose GPT for it.

And when You installed Zorin, what Install Option did You choose? ''Install Zorin alongside Windows'' or the ''Something else'' Option?

What Graphics Card(s) are you using?

During installation, did you partition your drive manually or did you use the automatic installer?
