Asked By TechieTurtle92 On

I've been trying to experiment with various Linux distros, but I'm facing a problem. After I select the distro to boot, I just get a blinking cursor. I have an Nvidia RTX 5070ti graphics card, which I know can be tricky. So far, I've attempted to try out Fedora, Nibaru, and Pop!_OS. I'm hoping to work this out while I wait to get an extra storage drive for my system.

Have you checked if secure boot is disabled in your BIOS? The proprietary Nvidia drivers might not load properly unless secure boot is turned off or the keys are enrolled. It could help resolve the issue you're facing!

It sounds like your Nvidia GPU is likely the culprit here. I've had similar experiences in the past. If you can, consider switching to an AMD card; it usually makes things a lot smoother for Linux users!
