    Gerne. Bin gespannt, was du sagen wirst.

    Mein Grundproblem ist immer noch mein YT Archiv...funktioniert seit Jahrzehnten. Für Wechselspielchen durch Instanzen-Lebenszyklen habe ich keine Zeit. (Für eine eigene schon gar nicht.)

    ...-no changes possible.I then Powered Off the system and it hung in several error lines. - Too risky for me and the 1024x768 is unusable nowadays.

    So, final verdict: OMEN is incompatible with UBUNTU, at least.

    Also, I tried to use the Boot Stick on my old ASUS. I did add the USBdrive as 1st boot priority. However, the Laptop does not recognize any bootable OS at all.I therefore giv

    Sooo...,

    I have succeeded in using your "SGX to "enable" pretty quickly.Still, same errors and the yellow UBUNTU.

    I then saw that there is another boot option with "safe graphics", which I used. And (partial) "bingo": I finally got a boot, but still the same disturbing BIOS errors.The System then booted in a "safe mode" with 1024x768 resolution.I found where I could (theoretically) change this, but as it is "safe mode"--...

    Thanks will look at this tomorrow.

    No, the PC had (!) already not been working anymore b/c some smart-ass HP support technician thought it necessary to update the BIOS as a 1st step in finding about why the replaced battery did not work longer than only 45 min. Now, the PC doesn't find a bookable OS on the 2 upgrade SSD's anymore, that had been working nicely for several years. What he should...

    Not sure if I understood everything. I created the USB bootstick with the latest 5yr "warranty" versión.Then, I reebooted and selected the 1st option: start or install.I then selected boot from USB.Then I got the BIOS Error screen for some second.After that, the yellow screen from the UEL below, but with white instead of green.

    Note: I've never seen a working #Linux desktop.

    Yes, exactly, but with no green but white instead (even worse contrast).

    I read the link now:

    "I managed to solve the problem, I had to set the monitor calibration in Settings/Color and set sRGB as default for both monitors."Will not work for me as I cannot see a think w/ white on yellow. The power-down button was puré luck.Also, this us a laptop monitor, no #display buttons, etc.

    I get that point, which is what I had hoped for to switch.However, I would still be working on a "Windows PC," though a virtual one, as I work with MS O365 must of the time, apart from the browser and some other app's for editing pictures, pdf's, etc., but that is just "cosmetics."

    I am not a security pro, but my VM would still be hooked up to the WWW, so what is the (security/privacy) difference - apart from that I can more easily reset the PC to an earlier state?

    Also, you still..

    Thanks for your reply.

    The VM idea is feasible. I am presently doing it on a Windows PC, while the Omen is supposed to be being repaired. However, this reduces performance, as memory is shared, etc.

    If I have the VM(ware) on Linux instead of Win10 or 11, what would I have as benefits?

    The system did start and looks sort of like a windows 1.0 desktop, but in white on bright yellow, almost unreadable.

    Thoughts?

    Ok. The installation on the stick is completed.I put the stick in the target system (HP) and did not mess with any further settings, but pressed Try Ubuntu (first option).

    Then, I selected the colorful (:)) option "Try Ubuntu" (without installation)
