Can you tell us what is the bootable device your using? (USB Stick, SD Card, DvD?

Graphic's card?
I used usb bootable .
I used blena to create it .

board : gigabyte ga-ma74-s2
hdd : 320g
garphic's card on board
Thanks for that.
I forgot to ask are you wishing to dual boot? "Install alongside"?
Can i ask you to create a bootable USB stick with "Rufus" please, lets see if that helps.
alongside , ok I will try Rufus now .
but I want to tell you it was booted to first screen to zorin good after choose any choice it will take me to this error in my post .
Please remember to run the checks posted above, this is important.
Also Disabling Windows "Fast Startup" within the windows OS. This is also noted in the above posts.
For now you can leave Secure boot & Fast boot Enabled.
keep us informed.
I did some tricks
I extracted the hard drive and put it in another PC, then I installed the Zorin lite from the same flash drive. It worked successfully.
Then I returned the hard drive to the first PC which has the first problem, it works ok .but I think there are some errors in the drivers, especially the Vega card, because the screen resolution is not correct.
I think that the first problem is caused by the fact that the board is not supported or there are no drivers for it, and this is what led to the first error during installation for the first time.
Now, can you help me adjust the graphics card driver?
Knowing that this is my first day in Linux, even though I have been a Windows expert for 26 years
So we can find out the details of your graphics card please open a terminal (Menu | Utilities | Terminal) and enter:
sudo lshw -C video
and post back the results please.

like driveridentifier?
AMD graphics is usually supported in the linux kernel.
You could maybe try downloading linux drivers as .deb file from here. https://www.amd.com/en/support/linux-drivers
Select Ubuntu x86 64-bit and choose the Ubuntu 22.04 version (for Zorin 17).
Do Read the Radeon™ Software for Linux® Driver installation instructions​​​​​
the driver didnt run
