I built the usb installer using Rufus and uNetbootin both. I disabled the Secure boot and fast boot.

The installation goes till the point where i get the option of selecting whether to install ubuntu or run it without installing screen. Whatever option i choose, the installation gets stuck at the next screen which is the loading screen with just the Ubuntu and .... being displayed. Please help with what i am doing wrong.

This is an issue with NVIDIA graphics in Ubuntu 15.10 and above. To install, you need to add a special boot flag.

When the GRUB menu comes up, highlight Try Ubuntu and press E. At the end of the line beginning with linux, put nouveau.modeset=0. Press F10 to boot and install.

After you install, there are a few other steps you'll want to take to get Ubuntu working.
