Unable to create working Linux USB Bootable

[Mattr567]

I am trying to reinstall Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 on my machine but cant get a working USB bootable going. I have tried the internal Ubuntu USB creator, as well as ISO to USB and Rufus on Windows to no success. I have tried multiple Windows machines and drives, a PNY 128GB drive and an older 4GB Lexar one. When I select install Ubuntu (or try it first without installing) and it seems corrupted like this. Selecting UEFI or not also has an affect. Not selecting UEFI brings me to a Linux UI type window where I can select what to do. If I do select UEFI it brings me to a grub type window with the same options. Non-UEFI doesn't give me this gibberish but gives me to the readable text but it gets stuck. UEFI sometimes just gives me the error "no operating system found" - that depends on what software I use to make the drive. Otherwise its like the crap below:

 

What am I missing? Getting the ISO from the official Ubuntu GNOME website so I dont think its that. Also have tried 16.04 LTS and 17.04 and it does the same thing so its not a 17.04 problem.

 

Thanks a lot.

With ISO files, I usually just copy and paste it onto a blank USB or burn it to a DVD and it works flawlessly. Try burning a DVD, somehow booting from USB isn't always perfect like using an actual disk. Also, you're trying to run Linux on the machine in your signature right?

Try redownloading the ISO file or checking your current file against the MD5 hash, I would suspect that you have a corrupted ISO

Yes I dual boot. I dont have a CD/DVD player.

 

I'll try that I guess, never heard of that method before.

I have a bunch of times but same thing, haven't done the MD5 hash thing though.

That looks like artifacting from a bad gpu or gpu driver.

 

What hardware is that running on?

 

Have you tried a different distro like fedora?

In my sig.

 

Well I am re-installing since when I upgraded from 16.04 to 17.04 it got really messed up. Graphics issues and unmet dependencies etc. My GPU is fine though.

Checked the MD5 checksum, its the same.
