dual boot - How to install 15.04 in not UEFI mode

I've got Windows 8.1 installed in not UEFI mode.
I'm trying to install Ubuntu 15.04, the problem is that my usb stick wouldn't boot.
The only way I got it to boot my USB stick was turning my BIOS to UEFI mode but when I was installing there was a warning message saying that one of my installed OS (W8.1) was in a not UEFI mode and that could bring me problems later.




So my question is, if I want to install Ubuntu 15.04 alongside a nonUEFI system, is there a different procedure than the normal one I've read here?
How can I make my system to boot my USB stick in NON UEFI mode?



Thank you very much!
