MODERATORS
Yes, I have done a few things already, including memtest. I'll copy from the forum:
The things I have tried:
Might sound like a dumb Q but have you tried testing any of the live environments or are you jumping straight to the install, and if you have played in the env. for a bit, have you tried installing any other distro? (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian etc)
If by live environment you mean the one running from the USB (before I start the actual install) then yes, the install itself starts from a live Mint, running from the USB already. Sorry, I'm not sure if that's what you meant.
Yup thats exactly what I meant. If you play with it on the USB for a while, do you notice any problems at all or is it only after install?
I have played around before trying to install a few times, but I'm not sure if that exhausts the question: I brought up two terminal windows to ssh into my Raspberry Pi and to manage logs on the other, while I had a browser up to look up netcat usage examples. It didn't freeze or crash during regular activity, if we're looking for that.
I mean it sounds like if you were going to encounter an issue in the live usb environment you would've then. I'm honestly a little stumped myself then. If you can run it off the USB, have verified your SSD and RAM are both physically functional with memtest and SMART tests, I can't think of any other basic troubleshooting other than trying another distro like Fedora. Theres a possibility you might have some sort of hardware that either isnt supported or is failing in such a way that it doesnt affect windows? I have never seen such a thing but maybe its possible. If you want to DM 1:1 on like, Matrix or something to discuss more I'm open to that. If not I hope you find something that works out though.
