    Installer freezes

    Hello, I am on a Lenovo Yoga 920 equipped with the following:
    -New 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8550U processor
    -
    16GB DDR4
    -500 GB SSD
    -D
    isplay 13.9" 4K UHD IPS (3840 x 2160)
    -Intel HD Graphics 620


    I have previously installed Kali on my older machine, but I am having trouble with my new laptop. Here's the scoop:

    Every time I try to select ANY install option (graphical, text, expert graphical, etc.), a black box pops up and my display freezes.
    Here's a picture:

    It's also important to note the following items:
    -I have tried letting it sit for 20+ minutes and nothing happens
    -I have tried both Rufus and Win32DiskImager
    -I have tried 2018.1 and 2018.2, as they both have native support for UEFI systems
    -I even tried installing an older version using this article: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...all-Kali-Linux
    -You may not be able to see in the image, but the menu text is tiny, and I'm guessing it may have something to do with my display being 4k, and I'm wondering if that's the source of that black box as well.

    I have googled a lot, and I found no similar issues.
