I have MSI ge60 2pe. I am facing big problem,whenever I try to boot USB it is obviously showing me options such as "try without installation" etc. However whenever I choose to install or try without installation system just reboot after like 30 sec. I was able to boot for a few times however it crashed during installation. I have already tried Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.6.3(giving me 2 errors during check.),unetbootin-windows-613(giving 1 error),and win32 does not show any problems during checking,but still reboot no matter what. To be honest I have no idea what to do.

First of all, 3rd party tools are known to often not create the Ubuntu installation media properly.
Use diskpart - this tool is known to create a proper installation media and is included in Windows.
Open command prompt as administrator and execute :
diskpart
list disk
select disk *
clean
create partition primary
active
format fs=fat32 quick
assign letter=**
Note : * = number of USB drive | ** = select a free drive letter
Mount the ISO file - copy the whole content to the USB drive.
Second, the MSI GE60 2PE should have a dedicated NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 860M graphics adapter.
Boot from Ubuntu installation media. Select Try Ubuntu without installing.
Press the E key and add nouveau.modeset=0 to the end of the linux line.
Press the F10 key to boot into the Live desktop. Perform the installation.
When finished boot the Ubuntu system. Select the Ubuntu boot menu entry.
Press the E key and add nouveau.modeset=0 to the end of the linux line.
Press the F10 key to boot into Ubuntu system. Install the NVIDIA drivers.
Reboot ... from now on you don't have to add the boot parameter anymore.
Do not forget to disable hibernation and fast startup in Windows before ...
