I tried to install Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS from a DVD to delete my current Windows 10 System. In the bootmenu after I clicked "Try Ubuntu" the OS leads me straight to the Login Screen. After I entered "Ubuntu" as username and left the password field blank it says:

The system is running in low-graphics mode

Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected >correctly. You will need to configure these yourself.

Later it asks me:

What would you like to do?

  1. Run in low graphics mode for just one session?
  2. Reconfigure graphics
  3. Troubleshoot the error
  4. Exit to console login

I took the first answer and it showed me a little messagebox after it.

Then after the screen turned black and never reacted again.

I had to restart my PC manually.

I tried it with a Live-USB-Stick too. But it was even worse because whenever I entered "Try Ubuntu" it leads me straigh to the Login-Screen too but it flashes everytime and I can't use the Login screen to type something in.

I had to restart my PC manually too.

My Specs are: Windows 10 8GB RAM NVIDIA GTX 750TI AMD FX-4100 Quad-Core Processor

Did I burned the DVD wrong and did I mess with the Live-USB up?

(Sorry for grammar and spelling mistakes if you find some of them. English is not my mother tongue.)

Get to this screen

enter image description here

Once you see this screen, press F6 and you'll see some boot options popping up. Navigate to nomodeset and hit Enter.

Press Esc and now choose Try Ubuntu Without Installing or Install Ubuntu, whichever you want.

You should now see the desktop or installer.

For what is nomodeset see What does `nomodeset` do
