 ventoy not booting
#1
hi! i have a lenovo thinkpad x250 that the specs will be listed down, for some reason whenever i boot an iso on a 32gb (and a 16gb sandisk drive) both show a black screen and never boot, ive tested all the isos and they seem to always work, note that it stays stuck on a black screen and never boots into the iso, i have secure boot disabled and im on UEFI, i can also post a picture but its on my phone and im too lazy to get it, thanks for the help!

Do you mean that it boots to the Ventoy menu OK?
Do you mean a 64GB USB drive does work?
DO all ISOs show the same probelm ? Ubuntu 64? Windows 10 64?
Did you try Text mode (F7)?
Did you read FAQ?
What do you mean 'I tested all the isos and they seem to always work' but also 'I boot an iso and it never boots' ??? That makes no sense!

When you boot the ISO file, it will popup a secondary boot menu.

Try other boot modes if you can not boot in normal mode.

Not normal mode and text mode.
Firstly, you should update Ventoy to the latest release.
Then when you boot an ISO file, it will popup a secondary boot menu. For example, when you boot an official Windows ISO file.
It will popup a menu with three selections:
Boot in normal mode.
Boot in wimboot mode.
File checksum

Try both Boot in normal mode and Boot in wimboot mode.
