Ubuntu 16.04.2 USB Boot Not Loading

[minimuscle]

I have a USB Boot for Ubuntu 16.04.2 64x. I know the USB works fine as it boots on a laptop and runs perfectly.

My problem is, when I run the pc and boot it from the usb, which works fine, and then prompts me to choose "install" or "run from usb" or whatever. I choose run from USB, it goes to next screen - blank - then all 3 of my monitors go into power saving mode like my PC is asleep??

I have never been able to install Ubuntu or any other linux on my desktop PC before, i thought the fact I have reset it would fix it but it didn't.

My PC Specs:
Windows 10 Pro
Intel Core i7-4790K @ 4GHz
16GB RAM
64bit OS
256GB Samsung Evo 850 SSD
4TB Seagate HDD

it might be your best interest to post on the Ubuntu forum your issue unless you happen to find a linux guru here

Ah yes. Forgot that. I have a gtx 970.

I managed to fix it. I had to edit the start parameters and add nomodeset. Worked fine. Noe just to fix the grub2 error. Hahaha. That's for tomorrow I think.
