I thought it would be pretty fun to start a project like this when I'm always stuck at home, though I haven't been through this many headaches in a while. - __ - So, the first problem (not the first I've encountered, but the first I'm needing help with) is that whenever I try to boot up the USB containing the Qubes downloader, it starts to boot up like it would usually do, with text scrolling down with (VDT) or whatever it had on the left. Then after a couple seconds, it craps out on me and leaves me with a black screen. Yes, this is flashed with Rufus, set it to MBR, FAT32, and DD. I've tested it out another laptop built about 20 years ago that originally ran Windows XP and it managed to boot up the USB without any problems, except that it doesn't support virtualization. But, either way, I was planning to just flash it onto a live USB anyways. But, my 64gb USB, which has been formatted to FAT32 and has no filed on it, is said to have only about 900 kilobytes of free storage left. When I check in Window's file manager, it says it has full capacity of free storage and I'm able to move files in and out, but the DISKPART manager says it has 0 bytes of free storage! My main computer that's having problems starting the USB is an ACER Nitro, so fairly new. The USB containing the downloader is a 32gb SanDisk 2.0, and the USB I would like to download Qubes to is a 64gb SanDisk 3.0. I'm fairly new to Linux 'n all, but please, I've spent 5 days jumping hurdle after hurdle and researching more and more just to get to this point. ANY help would be greatly appreciated, as I just cannot stand looking over the same web pages and being told to download 3rd party software promising to fix my problems. And please, don't think I'm mad at the devs or anything, I'm sure this is an amazing program, but I'm just pretty tired of this and I've already spent 20 bucks on USBs, so you bet I'm not giving up. Again, any help is greatly appreciated.
