ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso: OK
Your downloaded iso file is OK
I'm looking at the uploaded system-info report file.
- The overall specs of the computer shows that it works with the installed Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS, but maybe the current version, Ubuntu Desktop 20.04.3 LTS wants more 'horsepower'.
- The USB pendrive, the Cruzer Glide looks OK according to the output from 'lsblk'.
- The CPU, Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU J1900 @ 1.99GHz, was released Q4'13 (that is near the end of 2013). It is 8 years old, and I think the computer would work much better with a light-weight community flavour of Ubuntu: Lubuntu, Ubuntu MATE or Xubuntu, that you can find via releases.ubuntu.com/.
I would recommend that you download version 20.04.3 LTS of Lubuntu, Ubuntu MATE or Xubuntu (more than one if you have a good internet connection and compare them). Flash them into your USB drive and try live. I think Balena Etcher can do it (your problem is somewhere else).
Otherwise (if still problems) you can try another tool, the built-in Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator or mkusb. If still problems, you can use mkusb to wipe the whole device, which makes the pendrive more responsive, and after that clone from the iso file to the pendrive again. If still problems, please try with another pendrive.
Edit: You can also try with the pendrive in different USB ports. I think only one is USB 3, but it might work better in one of the other USB ports (slower but maybe more reliable).
