I'm still getting this Linux stuff mixed up. You're trying to set up a dual-boot system with Windows 10 and EFI, but the Nvidia driver keeps popping up when you install it. It says your system is secure and needs a key merge, then asks for a password after installation. After fixing that, you reboot and start Ubuntu, but then you see a strange blue screen asking about secure boot keys. You have to merge and enter the password you created. Everything seems to work now, except when you try to boot again—it turns off and doesn't start properly. You've reinstalled Ubuntu several times already because of this issue. What should I do next?

Certainly! I can adjust the settings to exclude disabling secure boot entirely.

Might be a simple issue on 18.04.

Turning off secure boot seems like a good idea, perhaps you should also keep using version 16.04 until the 18.04.1 update. Since each new Ubuntu release brings many bugs and oddities in the initial versions, it might be worth a shot. I also saw this on GitHub but it could be worth trying. https://gist.github.com/Rambou/c6769caee...2b86c3ef72

It appears the issue mostly happens when it matters the most. I have 18.04 installed on one system using an NVIDIA card, and the video driver setup went smoothly.
