I am like Dan Streetman and can not type anything after this error during install of Ubuntu 17.04. I can not try sudo apt-get install-intelmicrocode or anything like this because it will not let me type.

My screen looks like this.

... because I also have an Asus motherboard and Intel i7. I think mine is a intel i7 3770K.

I followed steps to update the microchip manually from the windows hard drive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEYqw5tvZHs
This was successful, I have installed the latest microchip architecture.

I have noticed that some people are having luck changing files in the installer prior to boot. I want to try this but all the posts referring to this are far too geeky for me to follow. I am a first time linux user.

The USB installed Ubuntu flawlessly on my Lenovo laptop. I used rufus to make my .iso bootable.

Sorry I am not very tech savoy, I hope this helps everyone here.
