Different Stick didnt help , on my laptop it goes but i get a different eror .

What you can try is go to bios on the hdd you are using ad disable smart and dma set all to manual and hdd typ from auto to LBA.

Maybe that will help .

Otherwise, check for a BIOS update or see what, if anything, can be changed in the BIOS that might help. There isn't anything the OS itself can do at that point, it's all your hardware.
