I have an old hp pavilion dv6 and I installed windows 7. Then i tried installing Ubuntu 24.04 and the USB wouldn’t boot, it just showed “GRUB” in the top left of the screen. I tried with another USB and the same issue emerged. Is this a BIOS issue?

Try flashing the image onto the USB using another tool. You also can try the
ddcommand in Linux (do be careful usingddthough)e.g.
dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sda bs=8M status=progressMake sure to replace
/dev/sdawith your USB drive’s path.well, I tried it w/ Balena etcher and it didn’t work, but it did on another laptop. I believe the fault is in the old computer.
Aight.
