timeout

When i click on "try ubuntu" after booting it from a USB the screen goes black and a lot of text comes out. But after a while it says "timeout: killing /blablabalba" or something like and it just keep on saying that. What have I done wrong? <.<

My computer is a Acer ASPIRE M5201 if that is of any importance.

Edit: I noticed now that before it says "timeout" it says something about not supporting "DNS" or "Asn" or something like that. I'm not sure if it was exactly dns and asn but do this mean that I can't run ubuntu on this computer?

Edit2: The exact strings are:

"[sdg] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA "

"timeout: killing '/sbin/modprobe -bv pci:v00001002d00"(and more nubmers wich I didn't catch)
