Thunderbird is the usual recommendation for an email client. So try that

Its fwupd which does the firmware updates , gnome software access it for updates . The cli version is fwupdmgr.

Mint has a more noob friendly approach with almost everything having a ui and it is Ubuntu under the hood so there wouldn't be extra to learn after switching. 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

Tried that as well but that as well uses usb boot so that is also net detecting

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.

i enabled it to the boot order but the laptop is not picking it up

This what occurs

No options for csm , no usb initialisation as well

I can see the windows boot manager, the nvme sdd and pxe boot thats it

Tried with a SanDisk and that also doesnt work
