This is my first time getting Linux. I burned Linux to my disk. Every time i reset my computer it says "Windows could not install (or something like that). It says like something is missing. It worked when I installed it on Virtual Box. But it won't let me install on my laptop. Please help.

I think this is because of the partitions. If you have only made 1 partition then there is your issue. You need to make three free space partitions on what ever storage.
The first partition is for Ubuntu and will be 50 Gigabytes (or more) in size. The second partition is for your home partition and stores configuration files and your personal files such as music, pictures etc. The third partition is for swap space and is used for intensive operations and suspending the computer. When you have found the partition with free space, click on it and press the plus symbol (+) under the disk layout.
This website is really helpful. If you have not seen already: http://www.everydaylinuxuser.com/2014/05/install-ubuntu-1404-alongside-windows.html
On that website go the install ubuntu in the bottom middle of the page, and it will show a detailed explanation on installing ubuntu.
If there are any issues please reply or comment.
