Hi all,
I have made a Bootable USB following the official guide. I have done this many times (the very first time I tried, the problem did not show up, but then I tried to install cuda drivers, messed up things and had to start over again). The issue is mainly with the mouse pointer, as it disappears anytime I move on the sidebar, the topbar etc...for example if I want to log and I click on the top right corner, the menu shows but the pointer disappears, and I have to guess where it is to click on the log out Icon. And here comes the second issue: many icons are not showing, as you can see in the screenshot.
Even the close-tab and minimize icons are missing in the windows...
I have been looking around but couldn't find people with the same issue, hope I'll be able to get some help here!
The image I have used was the x86 version downloaded from the official site, written on a 16gb usb stick.


Thanks in advance and please let me know if I can provide with more informations.

Ok, it's not USB related as I have tried the USB on a different laptop and it runs smooth and shows no issue.
Then it has to be with the laptop, which is an ASUS x53s. Which components of the can interfere with the correct functionality of a usb boot?
