I have Ubuntu 20.04 on (Pony) USB. I installed it on Window 10 Partition HP Desktop ; no Problem. Then I tried to install on Acer Desktop .It would not go passed Menuentry--Blank screen. I have installed Linux on Acer before Many times from DVDs. Acer is Intel i5 8GB Ram . Reset Bios ( Removed & replaced CMOS ). Boot order OK. Secure Boot OK. In addition I put Puppy Linux on another USB (Toshiba). That one booted on Acer; No Problem. Why won't Acer Boot Ubuntu from Good Usb ( Booted on HP )?

Your installer is an EFI only one when you try to use it on a BIOS based computer it will not work. Some are universal some are not, for instance if using Rufus on a windows machine to create the installer you are asked which option you want for it.
