I'm running a Windows 10 setup on an SSD and want to install a Linux Distribution on another SSD plugged into the same machine. I've tried with both Fedora and Ubuntu, using both Rufus and Fedora Writer. I've got Secure Boot disabled and run Legacy+UEFI boot. When I boot from the USB drive I create, everything looks fine and I can choose to install or run live image. No matter which one I choose, I wind up with a screen looking something like below:Any ideas?Let me know if any additional information is able to bring clarity to the situation.I'm running:Z97 GAMING 5GTX 970i7 4790k16gb of ram  Windows 10 on an Samsung 850SSD, wanting to install on a spare Samsung 830SSD. I have previously had Linux installs on the 830 with the remainder of the system the same.

I ended up using the commands described here to get NVidia drivers up and running before doing anything else with the system. To boot succesfully I also had to add the nomodeset flag.
