Are you trying to overwrite or dual-boot? What brand pc are you working with? I have dual-booted a win 10 with Ubuntu before but it has been awhile. I recall it being a little funky, I can try to dredge up some more of that memory if needed.

Disable secure boot.

Yeah, I did that. I'm going to take another shot later today.

Hmm. It might be the computer itself, something with the bios maybe? Only reason I say that is the last time I bought a desktop, I couldn't install Linux to save my life. I think I tried three times in as many days. I took it back, exchanged if for a different model, and took it home and succeeded on my first attempt.

That's disconcerting.
