  1. Burn out your Ubuntu iso image to your flashdrive
  2. Disable secure boot in BIOS if enabled
  3. Insert it into your laptop's USB port
  4. Turn on your laptop and boot from your flashdrive
  5. Select Try Ubuntu without installing
  6. Check if everything is detected and working: wi-fi, ethernet, sound, video, hdd, ssd, etc.
  7. If everything is working, than you could install Ubuntu on your laptop

Here's the official workflow from Ubuntu's own tutorials.

Download Ubuntu's ISO file at https://ubuntu.com/download
or for a supported 'flavour' with a different Desktop Environment, download from https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours .

The ISO file you use to create a LiveUSB should be checked for download errors by https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-how-to-verify-ubuntu#0 .

Make a LiveUSB following these instructions on another Linux PC https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu#0 or on a Windows PC https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-windows#0 .

Once you make a LiveUSB, install from it following these steps https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-install-ubuntu-desktop#0
