I can't install linux with kernel over than 4.x on my computer. (MSI GP72-6QE-087XFR Leopard Pro)

Tried : Ubuntu 15.10, debian 8 and linux mint 17.3.

This is saying: "ACPI : EC: Fail in evaluating the _REG object of EC device. Broken bios is suspected."

Looks like a bios problem for me, and i did buy my computer without OS so i only have linux choice. I can install Ubuntu 14.10 but the wifi is not supported (iwlwifi 3165). As soon as i update the kernel or the operating system (to ubuntu 15.04 for example), the computer is unusable (it only shows the error message and won't boot).

What can i do?

Just starting the PC with the boot parameters

nomodeset idle=nomwait

For ASUS Rog 6th generation intel just 

idle=nomwait

is enough.

Thanks myself.
