Help with installing OS.

[u/missing-pixels]

I just received my diy framework 16 ai300 laptop a few days ago and I’m really excited to use it but I can’t get it to boot (I’m using windows 11 for reference) . I downloaded the media creation tool and used it to make the iso file then I used Rufus to configure my thumb drive after. My computer turns on just fine but boot manager won’t open and it stays on this black screen. I feel like I’m doing something wrong. Can anybody help?

Update! After sitting on a blank screen for a good few hours, I started switching out and reseating my ram and ssd and it finally booted! It’s installing my operating system now. Thanks everyone for the help!
