What is your processor ?

If it may not support 64 bit , it will not possible to proceed after
loading initial parts which they are in real mode ( 32 bits )  ( to my
knowledge , if I am not wrong ) and it will fail when it starts 64 bit mode
.

You may test this by trying a 32 bit ISO .

Thank you very much .
