<p>Not sure if you mean the same thing, but some bios's have a
number of legacy modes for various settings. Check USB and
storage settings.</p>

been looking out for a (used) replacement laptop and found that
while Lenovo is mostly fine for linux, the Yoga ones are often
badly nobbled, so I don't even consider them even though there
may be exceptions. <br>
<br>
Obviously that doesn't help but I _think_ that I remember being
surprised at someone (here?) mentioning installing without major
trouble on a Yoga. Hopefully someone here can come to your
rescue. <br>

<br>
I was wondering if PLUG has an upcoming 'installfest' event? <br>
<br>
I have installed and used various Linux flavours on various
Windows 7/Chromebook machines (Joli, Puppy, Lubuntu, Bodhi,
Ubuntu, Gallium), but installing Linux on my recently-acquired
Windows 10 laptop (Lenovo Yoga 310

has got me stumped. <br>
<br>
I have followed instructions from various forums off the 'net,
but none of the procedures seem to work (when I boot off a
Linux boot USB, the laptop just freezes to a prompt and
nothing happens). <br>
<br>
I think it would be best if someone more experienced was
watching over me while I did it, to see what I'm doing wrong.
<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance and best regards, <br>
