Hello guys really strange issue here
i am currently on pop os and wanted to try garuda as i think its better for gaming
i downloaded the iso: "garuda-gnome-linux-tkg-bmq-201205.iso"
i put it on my ventoy usb, dont boot.
i used etcher to make bootable usb, still dont boot.
i used pop os usb flashing, still dont boot.
This is the only os i have ever tried that wont boot from usb.
Any ideas? really lost here......

Try the KDE (or other) version of Garuda. There has been a lot of problems with the Gnome version. If you didn't just download the ISO then be sure to download a new copy.
Be sure to checksum the ISO you download to be sure there's no errors.

Did you? ^^^^^
KDE is great, don’t waste your time with Gnome.

Ya I kind of figured from your rude response to my post that you were simply an M fanboi yanking our chain.
Generally, when someone is seriously looking for help they post their system specs on their OP.
Also they might realize that testing a different desktop than Gnome wasn't intended to be a solution, it was intended to be a troubleshooting step.

In the past NVIDIA hardware caused bootup problems for GNOME iso. Thats why booting another iso such as KDE would help finding out if its another one of these problems as @tbg pointed out already
