Can't install any linux OS on my server - BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck

I have been struggling for a while, and any help would really make my day :) Thanks.

Server Hardware: Dell R5500 Poweredge 2x: Intel Xeon 5000 128gb DDR3 RAM Unknown shitty GPU (i think Nvidia) 4x: 2TB WD HHDs

I recently wiped my disks on my server, since i wanted to switch to a new OS. I wanted to use Ubuntu Server, but when o tried installing the same error kept popping up;

BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck and something about snd_hda_intel

First off, this is unlikely to be a hardware issue on my side, since my hardware was active recently and was running with no problems. After a little research I think it seems to be a kernel bug or something. I tried with Ubuntu Desktop and Fedora Server -same issue. I have tried the online fixes i could find, like adding nouveau.modeset=0 after quietsplash, and I tried to select the option nomodeset, but still nothing changes. I saw someone talking about a BIOS update fixing it, but I don't know how to check if i'm up to date, or what updates I need. Also I don't know if did anything wrong with the nouveau.modeset=0/nomodeset, it seems to solve everyones problem online.

Again I would appreciate ANY help you guys could give.

Please be specific with release details; and Ubuntu LTS releases offer two kernel stack choices so if mentioning a LTS release be specific as to what you actually tried. You mention an off-topic Fedora; but without specific details to make that useful. Please be precise providing release or ISO details, kernel stack etc details. (*Were there differences in kernel stack/software stack between the releases you tried? or were they all the same thus the same results were expected?; even a Fedora if using an equivalent stack is not very useful; but if it was a different stack that is useful*).

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
