Ubuntu 19.10 Installer Fails to Boot on Z97A

I downloaded the official Ubuntu ISO for version 19.10 and I used unetbootin to burn the USB stick.

I was able to get to the grub bootloader, and I was able to choose the Live Disk option.

Then my screen turned light black and hung for over thirty minutes. My keyboard lights go dark.

My hardware is running on a standard Z97A motherboard.

I had previously booted Debian from USB and installed it was well as other operating systems.

lubuntu similarly fails to boot.

I had tried Ubuntu in failsafe mode, and I had tried both the standard and failsafe installer modes as well. All give me the same black screen.
