Desktop Hardinfo Report

I have made a live cd for neon and it boots fine on my laptop. But when i tried to run it on my desktop machine it boots to a black screen with a cursor which moves fine the keyboard is still active (numlock works etc) but it doesn't bring up the option to start a live session or install neon.  Any ideas?? i attach my system spec from hardinfo on my current ubuntu build.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This is probably an issue with Nvidia (search for nvidia nomodeset if you continue having an issue). I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Dear Bug Submitter,

This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Hello. I'm having the same issue on my laptop. I select to boot from USB where the live image is and all I get is a black screen with a white underscore. The version of KDE neon I tried to boot is neon-useredition-20190215-1510-amd64.

I forgot to mention: my laptop's video card is an Intel HD Graphics 500, so maybe it's not (only) a Nvidia video card problem.
