Also potentially stupid fix: could it be the USB stick I'm using? I'm using a PNY 64 GB USB 3.2 Type C, do you think a regular Type A would be better?

I'm not sure if you'll see this at this point but I'm running into a problem installing Mint and I was hoping you could offer some ideas.

When I get to the "Installation type" screen, I don't have any options for how to partition. Anything I click on this screen crashes the installer. I've disabled secure boot but I can't find any advice online for this specific problem for my laptop. Do you have any ideas?

Thanks for your input! Fedora, Mint, and Ubuntu seem to be the most commonly recommended

I was hoping someone could give a recommendation for a noob friendly distro that works well on my laptop, an HP Envy x360 Convertible 15m-es0xxx, i7 16 GB RAM. Thanks for your help and I apologize if these questions aren't allowed here
