did you run a checksum on your iso file to verify it's integrity? it could have got corrupted during the flashing process

#

also did you disable secure boot and fast boot

#

I recommend getting the ISO from the torrent and using ventoy for the usb to put the iso on

#

well you'll be hard pressed to install linux on a windows system then

haughty compass
stray iris
#

if you have physical access, you can remove the cmos battery

#

and it will reset the bios permissions

haughty compass
#

ok

stray iris
#

it's just a little watch battery somewhere on the motherboard, might be under the GPU

#

is this a personal computer or what?

haughty compass
#

personal

stray iris
#

yeah remove the cmos battery, it's like an inch wide flat watch battery

#

leave it out for a few minutes

haughty compass
#

the same for a laptop?

stray iris
#

yeah probably, the cmos battery keeps the bios and time settings powered so they are renewed on reboot

#

idk what laptop you have, but be careful while taking it apart

#

some of them use rivets and aren't easy to open and put back together

#

just google your laptop

#

and like cmos battery stuff for your laptop

#

what laptop do you have btw? maybe I can help find directions

haughty compass
#

asus tuf gaming a15

stray iris
#

mk so on your laptop, the cmos battery is part of the main battery pack

#

dumb design imo

#

idk how you can do this, because it will take forever to drain it

#

even if you pull the battery, it's likely the cmos will save the settings for a long time

haughty compass
#

time to remove the huge ass bat

stray iris
#

another options could maybe be to flash bios

stray iris
haughty compass
#

will flashing bios make system unstable

stray iris
#

idk give me time to do more research

#

no it wouldn'

spice dagger
#

I have a asus g15 advanced and unplugging the battery don’t do anything for bios

stray iris
#

but idk if it will let you flash it without admin pw

haughty compass
#

thats a green flag

stray iris
#

anyway sorry brb, fiance wan'ts me to smoke w/ her

spice dagger
#

Also I think that there may be a cmos battery in the other side of the board

spice dagger
#

haughty compass
spice dagger

haughty compass
#
