I installed linux alongside to windows 7.I made a bootable ubuntu 15.10(from official ubuntu website) on USB(program to make linux bootable downloaded from http://www.pendrivelinux.com/) and when i'm choosing a system, after few seconds my PC stops and i have to reset it. If i choose quickly, everything works fine. I was looking for answers but none of does not give a clear answer. Any ideas? I'm using SSD for systems, HDD for other files.

1Use Rufus to burn the USB instead. PDL is terrible.– TheWandererApr 4, 2016 at 22:19

@Zacharee1: Could you please convert that to an answer so that schmucks like me who go around hunting for unanswered questions don't have to look at this one any more? ;-) (And I'll upvote if you drop me a note and it's a good one too!)– FabbyApr 14, 2016 at 10:31

@Fabby suggested I put this as an answer, so here goes.
PenDriveLinux is pretty bad. A mod here is actually trying to contact Canonical and suggest an alternative be recommended on the Ubuntu website.
The alternative is called Rufus. It works much better than PDL/UUI, and is able to burn any ISO, not only Linux.
Every problem people have with USB installers has been solved by using Rufus instead.
