Help required installation issues on Vista machine Q4OS for newbie

Hi, I am new to Linux and Q4OS. I have been trying to install on an old windows Vista machine. I have managed to create a bootable USB from the Iso file and changed bios to boot from there. I get as far as the screen where you select the installation option. I can get no further. None of the keys work and the computer just hangs at that screen. What do I need to do, can anyone help? Sorry if I have posted in the wrong place.

Thanks, Brian
