system installation - Trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Toshiba Satellite laptop with Windows 10

I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my Toshiba Satellite U940-103 laptop. It came with Windows 8 pre-installed and I then upgraded it to Windoes 8.1 and finally Windows 10. I tried mounting the .iso downloaded on this page on two different usb drives using both rufus and UUI but i always got stuck on the third step of this guide. I would choose the first option: "erase disk and install Ubuntu" but I get automatically redirected to the "something else" page from the "second step" and I can't do anything even on this page. I don't care for dual boot. I'd like to completely remove Windows from the computer and install Ubuntu.


I mounted the .iso file on the USB drives on another computer with Windows 7, I don't know if that may be the problem.


Thanks.
