This may be a problem with UEFI implementation on this machine. Have you tried legacy mode?
Anyway, better place to ask such questions is qubes-users mailing list

Experiencing exactly the same issue with a MSI B250M Mortar and was wondering if the OP was able to resolve the issue.

Unfortunately, no. My computer was a work computer, and I did not have time to troubleshoot the issue, I just had to have a working OS. My company allowed me to use QubesOS, but would not allow me to spend time on it past installing it. So now I'm stuck with using Windows at work instead, as it "works" (for some limited definition of "works").

Just wanted to say that legacy mode is called CSM in some BIOSs. |

This "CSM" tip helped me a lot, had no idea that my firmware actually supported it
(however, legacy boot will give me an empty screen when I try to install it)

Qubes OS version (e.g.,
R3.2): R3.2Expected behavior: I boot the installation medium and the installer starts
Actual behavior: I boot the installation medium, and get the following message: "Couldn't obtain the File System Protocol Interface." Then I am taken back to the boot menu, where any selection just prints the message again and returns to the boot menu.
General notes: The machine is an MSI GS63VR 7RF Stealth Pro, if that helps. Also, I believe the error comes from this place in the Xen code.
