I bought an Asus notebook (model z450l) and the computer comes with Windows pre-installed. Every time I try to install some Linux distribution the system runs normally for the first few hours, but when I turn off my computer and turn on the machine again, the system either displays a fatal error, gets stuck on the login screen, or just doesn't run the graphics module.

rumblefish@rumbleCPT:~$ lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D'

        Subsystem: ASUSTek Computer Inc. Broadwell-U Integrated Graphics

    If you mean turn on PC, boot Ubuntu and a blank, black screen, then you may have a list of causes. – Tony Lancer Nov 03 '16 at 13:19

    Please [edit] your question and add output of lspci -k | grep -EA2 'VGA|3D' terminal command. – Pilot6 Nov 03 '16 at 13:20

    May need boot parameter like pci=nomsi? Asus x555u w/o pci=nomsi - space issue on drive and runaway log files filling drive http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2327103&page=3 and: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2327570 – oldfred Nov 03 '16 at 14:10
  • i'm at work now... but i'll post the screenshot when i arrive home. I'm worried about my computer does not support linux, since no distribution worked properly. – Cleiton Ribeiro Nov 03 '16 at 14:37
  • There's a rumor that some systems were shipped with a UEFI BIOS that was so crippled it could only run Windows. I can neither confirm nor deny this ATM. It might be helpful to [edit] your question and include the output of sudo lshw | grep -A9 firmware While your at it you might narrow it down. Specify what version of Ubuntu you are trying to install, and what you observed when you tried. thank you for helping us help you!
