SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download iso.
2. "Burn" to USB stick.
3. Boot.

OBSERVED RESULT
USB stick boots to blank screen. LED on USB stick (if present) blinks repeatedly, but nothing else happens.

EXPECTED RESULT
Boot to KDE installer

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
https://files.kde.org/neon/images/user/20210805-0944/neon-user-20210805-0944.iso
and
https://files.kde.org/neon/images/testing/20210803-1819/neon-testing-20210803-1819.iso
These both fail - blank screen, the installer never starts, the light on the USB flashes constantly. 

The iso installs on my Thinkpad T61 (Bios) but not my Surface Pro 3 (UEFI).

Note that Ubuntu (Ubuntu 20.04.2.0 LTS) does install with no issues.
