Your question is more appropriate on debian-user. I've copied this to debian-user@lists.debian.org .

First, backup your data.
What is the URL and the exact file name for the ISO file you downloaded?
What is the SHA256 checksum of the ISO that arrived on your computer?
How did you burn the ISO to a CD, DVD, BD, or USB flash drive? E.g.
what operating system, application, and/or commands?
Go into the CMOS Setup and choose "Reset to defaults" (or whatever it is
called). Be sure to "Save".
Power down. Pick one HDD or SSD for Debian and remove all the others.
Make sure it is plugged into the first disk interface on the motherboard
(e.g. "SATA3 0").
Boot the Debian Installer. Take notes of the title of every screen and
the choice(s) you made on that screen. For example, here are my notes
from a recent Debian 10 install:
Debian GNU/Linux installer boot menu (BIOS mode)

Country, territory or area United States
Keymap to use American English
Hostname dipsy

thanks David for this message. @Isaac Shields, please share with us the results of your efforts. also, you might if you continue to have problems with your Gigabyte machine, install Debian on a more ordinary machine in order to gain experience for an install on the less ordinary Gigabyte machine.

Issac,
If you have been able to complete the Buster install and install GRUB on
the appropriate disk, please try the following:
__DISABLE__ IOMMU support in the motherboard BIOS.
Reboot to the GRUB menu and type "e" to edit the default boot
option
type " iommu=soft" (no quotes) at the end of the "linux" line.
Press the "F10" key to boot the default option.
If that works (the system comes up to a Debian login screen) then you
need to edit /etc/default/grub (under the root user; create a backup
copy first) and update the line below with:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="iommu=soft"
Save the updated file
Run the "update-grub" command (again, under the root user).
Reboot
I have two systems with Gigabyte motherboards and I need to add this to
the GRUB configuration in order to get all USB ports working properly.

John Boxall
