When booting the kernel the usb installation media freezes

Hi everyone.

Today I'm trying to install Arch Linux via usb installation media in my laptop ASUS x453m, but it doesn't work, I use the same usb for install Arch in another computer and the boot working normally. Also I check the .iso file with md5 and all is right. I think that maybe the error is because the kernel is incompatible with my laptop.

What is a possible solution for this problem?

Something something BIOS/UEFI and OS mode. Second google hit with "asus x453m linux".

I also have one question... is that your backrest?

Awebb that was the solution, I changed the OS Selection from Windows 8 to Windows 7 on my BIOS setup. Thanks sir.
