Hi I got a lenovo ideapad 5 15acl05 laptop ryzen5 5500U and im trying to install a android os alongside it but whenever i boot through usb It never boots. It just looks like booting and automatically restarts the pc and the loop continues. Like when it enters into boot mode of USB there is black screen and then it restarts. So can anyone help me?
I tried Phoenix OS, Prime os and bliss os. None of them are working. I also tried to install it through external HDD.

I tried using same exe and iso files for another laptop which worked.

My laptop specs:

processor: ryzen 5 5500U

ram: 8gb 3200 mhz

ssd: samsung m.2 nvme 256gb

Whereas, i can boot other linux distro like Ubuntu, debian and so on.

    Any solution yet? When I try to boot from the USB, it takes me to the Android OS install screen, but when I select "install" the screen goes black except for a small rectangle in the upper-left middle of the screen.

    Tried PrimeOS and BlissOS so far with the same result, except the tiny rectangle is a different color. It's like there's a black screen on top of what should be the drive/partition selection screen.

    Did you confirm Windows Subsystem for Android is fully enabled for WIndows 11, including in BIOS if necessary?

    You can then run Android apps directly in Windows 11:

    It should also be necessary to install Android OS.

    Since it's working on your other PC, the problem may be with Lenovo so I'd ask their Support for help with this:

    If they won't help then ask in Lenovo Forums:

    One of those should get you going. Keep me posted on your progress as I will be here to help until the case is resolved.
