Hello,
Did you try to disable secure boot and fast boot from the BIOS ?

yes secure boot is disabled otherwize I was not able to boot from USB. In my personal opinion it is that kernel goes in to panic mode, I will try to disable all fancy BIOS settings and see how it goes. Funnies part is that Live version works 100% only after installation Zorin logo freez.
On the other hand previous model HP ProBook 445 G9 and G10 works as a charm with Zorin, both with AMD engine under the bonnet.
Is Windows still installed on the Machine? If yes: Check that Fast start-Up is disabled.
What Tool did You use to create the Bootstick?
Is Your BIOS in UEFI or Legacy Mode?
Hello,
No Windows at all. I test workstations to work under Linux only.
Installed on many machines, this one is relatively new with stupid Copilot buttons.
Let me spend some time tomorrow on it.
Reason I am interested to solve issue for this model is that these machines with AMD are best value for money and HP ProBook 455 is no longer manufactured.
I am seriously thinking of implementing Linux Zorin to my organisation and be delighted if we can have meeting about it.
As you know Windows is a problem and there is no better easy Linux distribution than Zorin. I tried Mint and Ubuntu not as easy to use for average computer user.
You can call me Linux fan boy but I am too old for this nickname I am just looking on reality of what is going on and in my opinion Zorin is the choice.
Good morning,
I have disabled all security features in BIOS, like all of them, system booted no problem after changes.

After auto BIOS update enforced by Zorin 18.1 I run another installation with default BIOS settings and all worked well.
