I decided to go with Linux mint for my laptop. After installing it alongside windows 10, it won’t boot into either. If I reboot from my USB stick, it says that maybe it’s too far away from the start of the drive to be detected. But I believe there is some intel /hp stuff that includes some kind of boot that might also be interfering. Does anyone have a good way forward from here?

Good luck with a HP laptop. They don’t like much dual boring.
I had no issue with HP, even with secure boot. Just had to pick boot order in BIOS
