I'm not quite sure why however after transferring qubes to my hp probook 11 it will not start any domains at all and every time I get an error message that says:

"Qube Status: sys-net

Domain sys-net failed to start: invalid argument: could not find capabilities for arch=x86_64"

Also, when clicking the Applications button in the top left corner of the screen and hovering over a domain or template my only option available is Qube Settings.

Please help!

The usual cause is that you dont have VT-x enabled: check the BIOS
and make sure that you have all virtualisation options enabled.

So after enabling Virtualization, I get a new error on the sys-net and sys-firewall that reads:
Domain sys-net has failed to start: internal error: libxenlight failed to create new domain 'sys-net'

Hi Joe,

The norm on this list is to use bottom posting (like this), rather than
top posting.

The message that you have now suggests an issue with one of the NICs
that you have allocated to sys-net. Confirm this in journalctl.
If you see a message "unable to reset PCI device" then you need to
configure Qubes to work round this.
Have a look at:
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/assigning-devices
(This should be a FAQ because it comes up quite often).

Open the Qube manager, and select sys-net, then open the QubeSettings.
(Right click on qube name, select from Qube Menu, or use icon.)
On the Devices tab you will see the Devices attached to the sys-net
qube.
Click on the "Configure strict reset.." button at the bottom of the
pane, and then select the PCI device and click OK.

See if you can now start sys-net.
If not, please check the logs and report any error message you see.
