Can't Boot Live USB with manjaro-xfce-21.0.7-210614-linux510

I am not able to boot any usb with manjaro-xfce-21.0.7-210614-linux510 on my hp laptop model dv6-7210us. Upon powering up the boot just hangs with a dark screen (not even displaying the distro boot menu).

I’ve tried without success:

using different bootable usb creators to create the live usb: unetbootin, balena etcher, rufus, win32diskimager

using other usb sticks

turning off secure boot on the hp dv6 laptop

The same manjaro live usb stick unbootable on the dv6 would boot fine on my other laptops (acer, toshiba).

The hp dv6 laptop can boot the same usb stick when it contains another live linux distro (mint, mxlinux, skylinux).

Have you fast boot enabled?

Give a try to ventoy if it’s still not working.

Tried Ventoy – still no go.

FWIW, I tried ArcoLinux with my dv6 laptop and had the same issue. So it seems that the underlying root cause is baked into the common ArchLinux core of Manjaro and ArcoLinux.
