Make sure you have the newest UEFI. You will have to set supervisory password and set trust once installed: Acer Very latest UEFI/BIOS works, downgrade not required: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2298380&p=13419141#post13419141 Acer E5-573G, downgrade UEFI, supervisor password & trust on Ubuntu efi boot files. http://askubuntu.com/questions/706912/getting-a-black-screen-when-installing-or-live-booting-ubuntu-any-version-in-m?noredirect=1#comment1039248_706912 – oldfred Aug 24 '16 at 14:37

You have to boot Your laptop from USB. You should have Boot menu on F12 but if not look this instruction http://acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3182/~/why-cant-i-get-the-f12-boot-menu-to-work-on-my-notebook-or-netbook%3F When You get Boot menu choose Your usb. You can install Linux next to Windows or You can format whole disk for Linux. Read instruction carefully.
When You install Linux, probably You lost access to partition recovery!
