How do you reset the firmware ?
Factory defaults tried that
Power through usb and the same on battery
Same I have already given up on it as well
I have completed the windows setup with the usual 3 partition and I used Ubuntu as well but booting is not the problem, the bios just doesn't seem to pick up the pendrive
Tried that as well no luck
The only other option is diagnostics that also doesnt work
It's gpt due to the disk management, I went with it.
I just got it this monday
The usb port is working fine for normal transfers . The bios just doesn't wanna pick it . I tried with a friends hp laptop it works fine on his.

Popularity wise mint is one of the best stable distros with Ubuntu as its base with community support as well so if you have doubts you can most probably find the answer just by searching
