boot - Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

I got a new computer and am looking to dual-boot Ubuntu and windows 7.



I have my partition made (50gb), and my 64bit boot disk made but when I try booting from it I just get a black screen, with the underscore. I can still use my old boot disk with version 11 of Ubuntu but its 32bit. I have tried looking for a solution, I extracted the .iso to a folder and I get the error "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows. etc..." when I run the wubi.exe, but yet the old 32bit wubi.exe still runs when I do the same thing.



I would like to install the 64bit version now but I'm not sure what to do next.
