Motherboard: Asus H170-PRO

CPU: Intel Core i5-6500

HDD: 1TB x2

From the BIOS I made the following changes: AdvancedMode -> Boot -> Secure Boot -> Os Type = Other OS (instead of Windows)

Ez Tuning Wizard -> Created "Super speed raid" with the 2 identical harddisks.

Intel Rapid Storage is ON.

Saved and restarted.

Installed Ubuntu (without errors). I'm using a cd-rom, not a USB key.

Now after grub i get a black screen with white text lines going.. after 2-3 seconds the whole screen is black and stuck here.

EDIT: tried without raid.. same problem :(

EDIT: Tried enabling Legacy BIOS mode and re-installing ubuntu. Now the computer freezes at grub menu.

Ubuntu server 15.10 worked fine. No problems. The only problem is that it's not a LTS version..

I encountered the same problem(I also use Asus H170-PRO and 14.04.3 LTS) and solved it by adding nomodeset to the boot parameter. The following post helped me.

How do I set 'nomodeset' after I've already installed Ubuntu?
