Thomas and Andrew, thanks for your reply.
The laptop is no more than two years old and it has an Intel Core i3-1005G1 processor. Also, I checked the USB stick and it only has the 32-bit EFI program in the EFI boot folder. I assume based on what Andrew said that maybe the UEFI needs to be 64-bit. I guess I will take the thread to the debian-live mailing list and ask why there is no 64-bit UEFI program and their plans to add one.
