hey bro, i searched too much about that.. finally i got the answer

this message (tge title of the post) appears on all kind of laptops or PCs, but that ia not the reason why doesn't linux installation complete..

the reason is that HP doesn't support any kind of drivers for linux.. thats is so disappointing.. 

i saw another post here in HP forum where they told that, unfortunately.

don't buy any new HP pavilion, x360 or even envy laptops with intel or amd processor.. with neither nvidia nor amd graphics.. beacuse they finally will not operate any distro of linux.. even if there is a distro operates, it will have massive issues.. go to Dell or Lenovo.. they are so much better than HP in this field.

Finally, sorry about bad english 🙂

Thank
