Install Ubuntu MSI GP72. ACPI : EC: Fail in evaluating the _REG object of EC device. Broken bios is suspected

I had the same problem with Ubuntu (16.04 & 14.04) on a "MSI GP62 Leopard Pro"

I made it to boot correctly by adding at the end of the boot line (after "quiet splash") :

nomodeset acpi_osi=

(you can access the command line by typing "e" when you see the grub ("Try Ubuntu" / "Install Ubuntu" / ...)

    I want to install the ubuntu mate 16.04, I tried the ubuntu 15.10 and 14.04 and no one work, always it is showing

    [ACPI : EC: Fail in evaluating the _REG object of EC device. Broken bios is suspected].

    I can't install linux on my computer (MSI GP72-6QE-087XFR Leopard Pro).

    Someone gave this answer:

    Just start the PC with the boot option

    nomodeset idle=nomwait
    

    For asus Rog 6th generation intel just

    idle=nomwait
    

    But I don't know where is the boot option, I want to install ubuntu mate 16.04 or ubuntu 15.10.
