I've upgraded from zorin 17 core to 18. When it made the restart I got a blank screen. I have a NVIDIA graphic card. Could this be the issue? What would you advice me to do?
Which card do you have?
When you boot, do you see a grub menu before it tries to load the desktop resulting in a black screen?
Welcome to the Forum!
Did You had during the Upgrade Process any Issues or Errors? Are Secure Boot and Fast Boot in BIOS disabled?
This is the dualboot screen I always had. After I choose to boot with Zorin, the screen just gets black and nothing happens.
have the NVIDIA Geforce GT 1030
Choose Advanced Options for Zorin OS and then select to boot on an *Earlier( kernel and see if it boots to the visible desktop.
What Driver did You use? Did You updated maybe to the 590 Driver? That would be a Problem because Nvidia cutted Support for 10XX Cards with this Driver.
In Grub menu in your picture, choose advanced options, then select an older kernel version, like 6.14 for example.
If an earlier kernel helps the OP boot into Zorin OS, then the OP will need to downgrade their GPU driver, to 570 or earlier, as support for 10-series GPU's dropped on 580 or newer.
This is what the menu looks like. In your case, select the 570 driver or earlier in (proprietary)
No, it was dropped with 590. 580 theoretically has Support for 10XX Cards.
