I fixed this!
When I access to grub menu to choose to install. I select the second option which is the installation then type "E" then add this line nomodeset i915_bpo.nomodeset=1 just before the quiet splash then hit F10.



The computer will then start the installation process without any problem.
This is due to the incompatibility of the Nvidia and the technology provided by Ubuntu, so after the installation, when starting again the computer it will obviously freeze and this because the line of command that we provided before has disappeared, so the user should do the same when starting his computer hitting "E" typing the same thing and while accessing to Ubuntu he should make this parameter permanent by changing on the grub file:



sudo vi /etc/default/grub


Change the line that reads GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" to



If you are using Ubuntu 16.04



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_backlight=native acpi_osi="


If you are using 18.04 you may need to run this



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_backlight=vendor acpi_osi="


Finally run this command to apply the changes permanently



sudo update-grub
