    Unfortunate to see hurdles thrown in the way to install a Linux based OS by manufacturers, though not quite surprising.

    If the desire to try remains in you, please reach out to the local Linux users group #lug and ask if one of the members could spare a couple of hours with you. Many old timers would be glad to help. Might even bring back their memories of install fests.

    https://www.infofuge.com/hp-omen-17-ubuntu/ there is hope to succeed in installing #ubuntu. Since as you said earlier that this is your first time outside of Windows there may be some loss in translation.

    Ubuntu is asking to enable sgx, which can be done as explained in the answers here https://askubuntu.com/questions/1406760/sgx-disabled-by-bios-in-ubuntu-22-04

    Enter BIOS, go to security section, set the Intel software guard extension option to enabled -- from the top voted answer

    The accepted answer explains a workaround. The catch being that watching 4K Blu-ray will be impossible.

    Not an HP owner or user. So Googled, and it seems the process is straightforward.
    #linuxmint builds on #ubuntu, and is a leading install and forget distribution which is also a good starting point for newcomers.

    That said, not clear on how you got the BIOS errors. Could you walkthrough to it please?
