If i parse "isoconfig" correctly as "/isolinux/isolinux.cfg" and "grubcfg" as "/boot/grub/grub.cfg", then the difference is in the firmware of the machines. ISOLINUX is booted in legacy BIOS mode, whereas GRUB gets booted by EFI in its native mode. You could try to let virt-manager use an EFI firmware like OVMF and check whether it then shows the same problems as the laptop. Or you could try to set your laptop to EFI legacy CSM mode and look whether booting by ISOLINUX avoids the problems. Have a nice day :) Thomas
