Did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?
Have you tried unetbootin or the 1-2-3 app from pendrivelinux.com?

i dont know about what MD5 test is?

also, i created the bootable USB by using USB creator provided with the Kubuntu LInux DVD.iso

You could have websearch for what it is then done one. You would have quickly found guides like this:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM

Currently you have no way of knowing your ISO you downloaded is consistent or complete.
