Can’t install Ubuntu on ASUS laptop

I’ve been trying to dual boot windows 10 and Ubuntu on my ASUS x556u laptop. When I get to ‘Updates and other software’ the installer freezes and is basically stuck loading.



The laptop has 8gb of ram, and intel i5 6200u and an nvidia 940m.



I’ve tried adding nouveau.modeset=0 after splash screen however, this doesn’t help.



Any ideas?
Thanks.
