USB couldn’t boot, it didnt work neither.
I was about to say that we don’t actually need to know this
should the USB device you just created work …
then:
I’m out of ideas - sorry
Anyway, what else would I do to boot?
Burn a CD …
Try a different Manjaro edition
minimal vs. full, another flavor … 
or use a different stick …
as I said - I’m out of ideas
I dont have CD or DVD as well as a compartment for it in laptop
Is your system UEFI capable (I’m guessing not). If you created the Ventoy USB in UEFI mode, it won’t boot on an BIOS/MBR system. How did you create the Ventoy USB?
Its for MBR/BIOS, I checked.
The Ventoy USB, you mean?
Did you try booting the Ventoy USB in different ports?

Heart means yes.
No, it doesn’t. Please be precise with your answers wherever possible, otherwise it leads to confusion. Thanks.

I tried booting in different ports, nothing. As I know, Ventoy uses GRUB as loader. Manjaro also uses GRUB.
Manjaro Forum said that I can do that. If I dont have anything else to say other that yes, I wouldnt send a seperate message.
I have never heard that kind of “emoji language” here.
Just for the fun of it:
can you use the cat method and create a Mint USB and see if that boots?
You probably have the iso still around from installing it.
Yes, I can. I think it would work as well as if I burn ISO the usual way.
That is what I’d like to verify.
Speculation only gets you so far …
Yes, it works.
So, it is just any Manjaro ISO you have that can’t be convinced to boot,
with whatever method the USB is created?
In that case I really have absolutely nothing left to suggest. Sorry.

Consideration: maybe that old CPU doesn’t support the instruction sets needed by the modern Kernels typically found on recent Manjaro .ISOs?
Being an i7 I’d be a bit surprised if that is actually the case, though.
I do see that the .ISO you are trying to install from has the linux68 kernel. This is already EOL. I don’t follow the Cinnamon side of things, but this might be a problem. It very likely would be anyway, when you came to upgrade a freshly installed system.
If you do have (or can find, I’m looking) an .ISO with linux66 try that, or failing that, linux61.
EDIT:
See his post for the links.
Another option: do the install on another machine then transfer the drive, after having installed a few supported kernels and removing the obsolete ones. But do ensure the install is done in Legacy mode on the source machine, by disabling UEFI if it has that. This OS was originally installed on another machine.
That sends isofile a character at a time, which is much slower. But it works fine.
dd is archaic and weird parameters at first, comparing to everything else on the command line nowadays. But it is still the fastest for sending in blocks, which is a large factor faster. And you can set the block size to whatever you want.
