I'm trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 on my computer (dualboot with Win10), but when I see "installation is complete, restart your device" message, I click on restart and I get SQUASHFS and print_req errors and ubuntu won't start up.

What I did when trying to install Ubuntu;
-Burned ISO file to 2 different USBs, incase if problem was causing by one of them (got same result)
-Closed Fast boot and secure boot
-Opened CSM thingy
-Booted from non-UEFI usb boot option
-Couldn't close USB legacy mode because my computer resisted booting from USB when it's closed
-Deselected every other boot option but non-UEFI USB option from BIOS menu
-Ubuntu won't showup in BIOS Boot options menu, but when I try to install it again, installer says "Ubuntu 16.04 detected on your computer" and suggests me to install Ubuntu 16.04 alongside with ubuntu 16.04

Errors;
SQUASHFS error: unable to read
->fragment cache entry
-> page, block *some hexadecimal numbers*
print_req_error: I/O error, devloop0, sector *some decimal numbers*

I need to install ubuntu 16.04 so there is no point to try any other version but any suggestion is appreciated.

squashfs is the filesystem used on the ISO. Did you hashcheck the ISO? Did you remove the install media before rebooting? A normal install, without the install media present should not have a squashfs file system present.
To md5sum check the downloaded iso:
See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
Check the number against the listing in the link for your release listed at
http://releases.ubuntu.com under the MD5SUMS link.
For other releases' hashes, like lubuntu, see:
