Kali Linux Live CD Blackscreen/Not Booting

$

I am pretty new to Kali Linux (or Linux in general) so probably I won't understand ALL of the technical terms, but I will give my best.

As introduction in my problem, I wanted to create a Live CD with Kali Linux for my Laptop (exact information on version etc. will be given later, as well as the chronological order of the things I did).

After burning the ISO Image of Kali, I restarted my Laptop, and wanted to boot Kali Linux as a "Live Session", but everything I have seen was a Blackscreen, with no console, and no mouse pointer.

The Laptop did not react to anything, so I took out the disk, and started my PC new and booted with my primary operating system. After that I tried different things (which I will list too), but nothing of it helped me.

My System:

Laptop Model: ASUS R510LB-XX037HOS: Windows 8.1 64-BitArchitecture: 64-BitProcessor: Intel Core i74500U CPU @ 1.80 Ghz 2.40 GhzRAM: 8.00 GB (7.89 Usable)Graphics: Intel HD Graphics, nVidia GEFORCE 740M

(If more Information is necessary I will give it)

The Linux:

Kali Linux64 bit (because my System is 64x Based)Version: 2016.1Boot Media: Disk (DVD-RW), 4.7 GB Storage

=> So basically the first thing here (Kali Linux 64 bit ISO)

The Things I did (in chronological order)

  • Downloaded Linux Kali 64 bit 2016.1 ISO
  • Saved on Desktop
  • Took a brand new CD and put it in
  • Right Clicked the ISO and burned the Image (With the Burning Option given by the System)
  • Opened Charm Bar => Settings => Change PC Settings => Update/Recovery => Recovery => Advanced Start
  • Selected the Option for opening the UEFI Settings
  • Boot => Changed The Boot-Order, DVD will be booted first before main OS
  • Restarted the PC
  • Red Window saying "Secure Boot Violation" and some text, so I entered UEFI again and disabled "Secure Boot"
  • Restarted PC again
  • Blackscreen
  • [after 20 min] manually restarted the PC (simple power-off)
  • Burned ISO-Image again on fresh Disk
  • Restart
  • Blackscreen again
  • power-off, boot with Windows again
  • and so I came here

I really don't know what I can do more, under Windows everything works fine (related to Hardware).

How can I resolve this issue?
