After watching your video, I tested Zorin 16 Pro installer on my Gygabite machine.
I also have a bunch of error messages but by waiting for a while, the installer will start to run a md5sums check.

Leave the machine for a while and see what will happen.

sorry im late,yes its gonna install it,but 2.0 usb will not gonna work and only 3.0 that work.

That is OK.
When you edit grub, both USB ports should work.

done,so how to fix it

53

GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3 USB3 fix for Ubuntu x64

/etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash amd_iommu=on iommu=pt"

Update grub:

sudo update-grub

54

3.0 is fine,the problem is 2.0 miss

55

You could still try this.
It is easy enough to revert back.
(Basically it is a fix for a poorly written firmware for this M/B.)

56

hey how to do that,cause icant use my keyboard

57

You mean you do not have a keyboard after the installation?

58

yeah.as i said 2.0 usb error,so i use 3.0 but i only have 2 port,so i use that for keyboard and wifi

59

Ant chance for using a USB hub?
