ZorinOS 16.2 will not install on Dell XPS 13 9370

Zorin OS 16.2 will not install on my laptop Dell XPS 13 9370. Rufus or Etcher made no difference for me, regardless of which, with three different downloads of the ZorinOS 16.2 ISO (checksummed all three ISOs and they checked out ok) and tried on three different USB:s, it just simply will not install on my laptop (running with the latest firmwares and BIOS) making it the first distro where an installer behaves this way. It just halts (with a black screen) shortly after I have made my installation choice, regardless of what choice I make. Weird.

Zorin 16.1 and Mint 21 installs just fine (with the same setup) so from my point of view there is something different going on with the installer for ZorinOS 16.2. After installing 16.1 (again) it upgraded to 16.2 so it is not a big issue for me but I thought you all should know.
