Ubuntu on XPS 8960
I recently purchased a $2000 Dell XPS which runs Windows, but I want to run Ubuntu on it. Neither versions 22 or 24 of Ubuntu will run/load. It doesn't even run the trial on the USB stick, pressing F12 at startup and selecting Ubuntu in the BIOS to run it Am I doing something wrong or what? Is this computer not capable of running Ubuntu? Any help would be appreciated.

Only Windows 11 is supported by Dell on this model, so a Ubuntu forum is the place to start.
