I was reading through this thread:

and I noticed some similarities, but also some differences between our two 
situations.

My system:
Asus Sabertooth x79 with Intel i7 3930k
32GB of quad-channel DDR3 RAM

I have tried two different installation methods:
by DVD: Loads fine and then gets to this point:
See two attached jpgs, IMG_0882b1000.jpg and IMG_0883b1000.jpg
by USB-boot (non-UEFI): Loads to the Q screen with a white progress-bar on the 
bottom and then freezes forever. This is before any installation or options or 
disk-choosing.
by USB-boot (UEFI): Just crashes and restarts as soon as it starts loading off 
of the USB-drive.

I have tried every major fix in the BIOS and still the problems persist.
My settings:
Intel VT-X: enabled
Intel VT-D: enabled
Sata config: Raid mode
Compatibility Support Module: enabled
Boot Device Control: UEFI and Legacy
Secure Boot: disabled, "Other OS", Platform Key State: Unloaded

Boot order: every combination.

I'm so frustrated with this. Have been trying to get it installed for a few 
weeks now, on and off. But I imagine that this community knows everything about 
the installation process, so I hope you can help me. If there's something that 
I missed, or any other information you'd like, please ask away!
I think that privacy and security are really important and I'd like very much 
to use Qubes, but I simply cannot find a way to get it installed.

Thanks for reading,

So, if it were me, I would go back and make sure I created a USB installation media correctly, like maybe if of method ......

stick with legacy mode, enable any VT that you have ; secure boot off ; compatibility enabled , Sata I have no idea, if you have any onboard graphics choice, make sure discrete graphics is off ....

I did see one of your type on the HCL for version 3.1, maybe you'd be happy with 3.2 or you don't say what version your installing ...

sadly your attachments probably may get ignored, I for one, can't get them to open in Thunderbirds 'open in DVM' and I don't really want to download them myself

I think your system is too old for UEFI install, though there is the EFI troubleshooting guide, which part of the qubes docs have you read or following ?


IF you must have qubes now, try 3.2 its supported for another 9 months, and then you'll have the qubes way more fluent I suppose .... depending on your threat profile or whatever .....
